Wi-Drive: Eco-Chic Transportation Service For Executive Commuters
2009-05-19 01:07:00 As businesses work to bring more environmentally friendly alternatives to their operations, there's a necessity to reconsider traditional options to cater to a more elite crowd. While the average commuter might have no problem with taking public transportation by way of a city bus, commuter train or subway; it takes a little bit more persuasion to convince some executives to give up the comfort of their Mercedes for the more eco-friendly alternative. Following of a new San Francisco law that requires companies with 20 employees or more to offer incentives to encourage employees to choose ride-sharing programs or other forms of shared transportation; Wi-Drive, an eco-chic transportation option for business executives has been created.
Swine Flu Comign to Public Transportation Near You!
2009-04-30 20:01:00 As our "pandemic" really ratchets up, the Vice President urged Americans to shun public transportation. Fifteen states are now reporting confirmed cases. (MSNBC has a cool intereactive map to show you the states, cases, and outcomes...Click here) (THIS is the simliar world map of confirmed cases)I would go one step further and encourage Americans to be personally responsible and vigilant. Sure, regular seasonal flu kills more than this emerging virus has, but the fear (rightfully or not?) is that the virus could mutate to a more deadly version at any time. The more humans who are exposed, the greater the statistical chance that the virus could change and then become not only insanely easy to transmit, but also lethal.Seriously, to those nay-sayers out there, myself included...Think about this. Cases are confirmed as the appear. The reality of that is that MANY more will appear shortly. Those we are seeing reports of are the ones that have already passed the incubation period f...

Moving Services for Your Transportation
2009-03-09 13:35:00 Shifting to a new place often turns to be a nightmare. The more is the distance, the more are the worries. Finding suitable transportation services is a horrible task. If you choose a wrong shifting service, you are more likely to thrash your favorite possessions into danger. Often people go for fewer prices and by the way to find it, they end up damaging costlier things and wasting more beyond imagination. So be aware and do not just pick up any mover from the street just on the basis of lower price rates. There are some tips for you that you can always follow to select the right relocating service to settle in a new place. Prior to getting in touch with any relocating service, you should have a complete list of the things to be moved along with the list of articles not to be moved. The number of things to be moved is important to decide the company as the trucks the company possesses should be consistent with your list of articles. If the list is higher, the company may not...

A New Way to Look at Public Transportation
2008-06-24 20:10:00 When we think of public transportation, images of crowded buses and cramped subways come to mind. And even though the public transit systems are better for the environment than everyone driving, they still produce emissions. However, a new design may change the way we look at transportation available to everyone.

Garuda finally awarded IATA safety clearance
2008-05-29 12:24:00 Flag carrier Garuda Indonesia has finally received safety clearance following a stringent audit conducted by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), president director Emir Syah Satar said Thursday. "The IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) for Garuda was approved on May 14 and will be presented during the IATA annual general meeting in Istanbul on June 1-3," said Emir. "We expect the European Union to refer to the audit result during their session on flight ban in July." The EU has banned all Indonesian airlines from entering the bloc's airspace even though none of the airlines actually serve European routes. The government has proposed four airlines to be exempted from the flight ban. In addition to Garuda, the airlines are Mandala Airlines, which has committed to buying a large number of European Airbus jetliners, and chartered airlines Airfast and Premiair.

Gas Pains
2008-05-29 06:01:00 It occurred to me the other day that back when I first started driving, I could earn enough to fill my tank by working one hour at my minimum-wage job. Now I make way more than minimum wage (which has also risen), and it takes me about five hours of work to fill my gas tank. Granted, I have a bigger gas tank now in the Mamamobile, but that because I'm supporting a family. I also figured I am driving a LOT less now than when I was a teenager running the roads just to see where they went. Now I'm going to get all sentimotional about those days... (sniff) Excuse me, I'm feeling somewhat verklempt. Take a moment and read these jokes, and I'll try to pull myself together. (update: in the two years since this was written, gas prices have soared. Now it takes ten hours of minimum wage work to fill the tank!) Find the cheapest gas prices in your city. If you don't live in a city, that's too bad! If that doesn't work, try this one.

In his book Palapa Nusantara 2015: Kebangkitan Semangat Wawasan Bahari Jakarta (Palapa Nusantara 2015: The Awakening of Jakarta's Maritime Vision), Martono's vision of the waterfront includes an art academy, riverside shops, apartments and an office park. "Indonesia is known as the biggest maritime country in the world. Because of that, I'm offering a project called the Sunda Kelapa Waterfront to the government, especially to the Jakarta administration, to be the country's future main port," said Martono, also an official at the Jakarta Tourism Agency, at the book's launch Sunday. Martono said a number of major cities in the world, including Sydney, New York, Honolulu, Barcelona and Singapore, had turned their coastal areas into main gateways.

Indonesia monorail scheme 'implausible' - World Bank
2008-05-23 12:14:00 A long-delayed plan to privately fund a monorail to ease congestion in Indonesia's traffic-choked capital is "completely implausible", the World Bank said here Friday.The plan to build the 27-kilometre (17 miles) network entirely with private sector money would be impossible, with the costs of running the scheme meaning heavy losses, the Bank's infrastructure specialist Hongjoo Hahm told Agence France-Presse.Hahm said a revised Bank study completed this week based on figures supplied by private firm PT Jakarta Monorail found that major government investment would be needed for the scheme to be feasible."We're saying (to the Jakarta city government) don't get your eyes glazed over by private sector guys that are trying to sell you something completely implausible," Hahm said.The Bank's findings, which were passed to Jakarta Governor Fauzi Bowo Thursday, are the latest major blow to the beleaguered scheme, which has been delayed amid uncertainty over funding.Indonesia News Blog: ...
