First day at work with the Indonesia Transportation Agency

My IBM partner Javier, from Mexico City, and I got picked up from the hotel by our contact from the Transportation Agency.  We also met our translator Bartholomeo. We went to the headquarters compound and met the chief of the agency and some of the representatives from the various sub organizations we will work with.  The area they would like us to focus on was Traffic Control at the major intersections of the city.
