I was fortunate to be in Bandung a couple of years back at a Royal wedding - and its an amazing area of high Volcanic mountains and deep valleys and the odd plain. I can only imagine the difficulties with the environmental issues of humidity, high incidence of thunderstorms, and the odd large ground shaker that must have been worked around. The saving grace for me was the elevation and a whole lot cooler than it could have been. Never been in a place that had the number of mosques in such a small area - some of the audio amps were definately class C- :-)
