Indonesian Internet Marketers To Dominate The World?

 iMarketing35

When I was on holiday in Indonesia, I met a really cool group of Indonesian Internet marketers who showed me a really good time in Jakarta, Bandung and a few other places.

Although Internet marketing in Indonesia is relatively untapped, the Internet marketers I have met are enthusiastic about the huge opportunity. After all, Indonesia has the 4th largest population in the world with cheaper labor costs than most countries and increasing Internet penetration - and these guys have a plan on how to ccapitalize.

From left (excluding me): Cornelius, Semmy Wijayanto, Francis Jimenez (imported from the Philippines) and Dee Ferdinand - a special thanks to all!

Meet these guys at the Bali Rendezvous Internet marketing event in Bali, Indonesia. Very smart guys, and even if they do not end up dominating the world, they will definitely be among the top Indonesian Internet marketers.

Really.. I was chatting with Francis the other day he didn’t mention about it being canceled. It would be a shame to cancel it when there’s already such a strong lineup of speakers..

Your Related Post and Tagged as plugin looks nice. I tried to find out something like this but haven’t found something which can work nicely with wordpress 2.5.

Anyway in the Bali Rendezvous website they mentioned “Bali Rendezvous Has been canceled”, what do they mean by that? Is the gathering is canceled or something else. I am confused actually.

I’ve updated about it in my Personal Blog post here too:
http://www.edmundloh.name/2008/03/14/lets-meet-in-bali/

I was invited as a guest speaker for the Bali Rendezvous event. Yes the speakers line-up was strong and this was one of the bigger incentives that attracted me to participate.

However, the organizers have been making slip-ups on their part (which I’m not going into detail) and I wasn’t surprised when they announced the cancelation.

I think I know what you mean. Hopefully we’ll see it revived soon.

gobala..

u stated in your post ” Meet these guys at the Bali Rendezvous Internet marketing event in Bali, Indonesia. Very smart guys, and even if they do not end up dominating the world, they will definitely be among the top Indonesian Internet marketers. ”

but i went to the bali rendezvous site..it states ” Bali Rendezvous Has Been Cancelled,” so just wondering…which session did u go to? was there a second session? coz i was reading bout it few months ago..

the event sounds very interesting though rather overpriced..coz a bali trip can be organised for only about rm1500 or less including flight & stay at 5 star hotel.

Indonesia have many bloggers doing from templates design to selling domains. Maybe internet is the source of income for them, since their economic in bad shape?
