PUBLIC AFFAIRS SECTION
U.S. EMBASSY
PRESS RELEASE

November 13, 2008
No U.S. Travel Warning Exists for Indonesia

Bahasa Indonesia

The U.S. Government canceled its travel warning on May 23, 2008, and contrary to recent statements, this warning has not been reinstated. While the U.S. Embassy routinely issues warden messages to American Citizens who are registered with the Embassy, none of these supersede the lifting of the travel warning, nor should they be construed as restrictions on American citizens, or other nationals, from traveling to Indonesia.
The travel warning was cancelled due to objective improvements made by the Government of Indonesia in its current security situation. Indonesia has not experienced a major terrorist attack since October 2005, and the Government of Indonesia has disrupted, arrested and prosecuted numerous terrorist groups and elements.
For more information for U.S. citizens about traveling internationally, please visit http://travel.state.gov.

Re: Indonesia: Human Cases 8 Oct 2008 +

From the text in post #192:
"... Indonesia has not experienced a major terrorist attack since October 2005 ..."

Seems that the cited May lifted restriction was pertinent to attacks, not to bird flu.

Probably this time also, these are clusters from poultry infection provenience only, and hopefully on resolvement course.

Re: Indonesia: Human Cases 8 Oct 2008 +

I should expect and require my govt to to keep traveller's informed of such a large outbreak. Rescinding an old terrorism warning in the middle of a large suspected outbreak of h2h bird flu, is not what I call a prudent action. Actually, I would call it reckless.
No this outbreak has not been proven to be bird flu, but why take the chance?
You may not find out for months.. http://www.who.int/csr/don/2008_09_10/en/index.html
or have it denied after laboratory confirmation
http://www.cidrap.umn.edu/cidrap/con...supari-br.html
The U.S. is not trying to keep you up to date with current event on bf in Indonesia as it is now. The last avian flu warden message was 9 months ago
http://jakarta.usembassy.gov/consular/WMfeb2908.htm
Oh, I suppose I could just pretend to be nonchalant about this very large outbreak of people hospitalized with suspected bird flu..the Indo army helping kill birds..all people in the neighborhood being asked to report at the slightest hint of illness..free tamiflu at every community health center and hospital..nothing out of the ordinary..what hey..NO PROBLEMS AND NO TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS

Indonesia says teenager tests negative for bird flu
---------------------------------------------------
Tests on an Indonesian girl reported to have died of bird flu proved
negative for the deadly strain of the virus, the health minister said
Thursday [13 Nov 2008]. Siti Fadilah Supari said the 15-year-old
girl, who died in hospital in the Central Java city of Semarang on 7
Nov 2008, was not carrying the H5N1 strain. "Both tests came back
negative," she said.

The girl, who lived near a chicken slaughterhouse, died 10 days after
complaining of flu-like symptoms. Indonesia has been the country
hardest hit by bird flu, with its official toll of 112 deaths
accounting for nearly half of worldwide deaths from the disease. The
H5N1 virus typically spreads from bird to human through direct
contact, but experts fear it could mutate into a form easily
transmissible between humans, with the potential to kill millions in
a pandemic.
