Please help: Looking for Chinese and Indian herbs (& herbalist) in Indonesia?

Hi,

I will be traveling for three months through SE Asia, including Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Indonesia starting in mid-September. I consume many herbal dietary supplements for my health, but because of possilbe complications getting them through customs (the herbs come in bulk with no original packaging per se), it looks like I might have to find these Chinese and Indian (Ayurvedic) herbs in each respective destination.

So, I'm asking about Indonesia here---any city, but especially in bigger ones like Jakarta or somwhere in Bali. Do you know of any herbalists or herbal shops which have Chinese and Indian herbs, especially encapsulated herbs? Health-food stores? (I'm looking for largest shops, as they are more likely to have the specific herbs I need.) Any names or search tips on the internet would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

For Chinese herbs:
In Jakarta, you can go to:
1. "Kota", it's old chinese town in Jakarta whereby you can find so many chinese herbs there (it's across the Harco computer's store building. Too bad, they have no internet link . They are so traditional. But I guarantee you that the herbs is so complete.

2. For the modern klinik in Jakarta selling the chinese herbs, you can contact:
Tong Ren Tang
PT Tong Ren Tang Indo
Jl. HOS Cokroaminoto No. 73-75 Jakarta Pusat 10350
Telp. (021) 391 9088 Fax. (021) 390 9886

For Indian herbs:
Never heard any place in Jakarta selling Indian herbs. You can go to Pasar Baru. It is India's town like China town. Probably you can find any there.

Please give me your specific herbs that you are looking for and your email, I will help you find the herbs' store that you are looking for.

If you are transit in Singapore before flying down to Jakarta, usually the immigration allow you to bring the herbs. I think it is much easier for you to find the herbs you need in Singapore.
