However, I also recognize that in some cultures if an event is free it is
considered to have no value by the community and therefore will receive
poor attendance, attendance from individuals who are not in the target
audience and/or lots of  no-shows.

Hi,

Just some notes from my side.

1. We expected this bid back in September, can you explain why you come now?

2. We made at the last FAD in Kuala Lumpur a decision to couple the FAD
with the FUDCon as our region has only a 10k budget and we can not afford
to hold an FAD anymore with it as we have to pay this kind of FAD from our
regional budget. But we still need it. You was at least physical present
during that FAD so you should know it and you also know that the purpose
for this FAD is to make the budget planning what requires to do it July or
at least begin of August so that we can submit it in September.

Question here, why you simple go now for another date

3. We granted the indonesian community back at FAD in Singapore, 3.000$ for
an FAD to reactivate the indonesian community, which is a bit sleepy during
the last years. It was you who wanted to do this FAD, so now how can it be
that nobody else from them is involved? Do you have any plans to work with
the other Indonesians together?

Besides that there are some failures in the bid, like why you recommending
VoA, most will arrive definitive at JKT and can go for the Visa Waiver,
which costs nothing instead of paying 35$. I assume nobody of us wants to
extend his stay over a month.
There are also some calculation failures (or better you missed to clean it
as you copied) you calculating with 350 visitors and 10$ for the catering a
day, makes 350$ a day so for 2 days 700$ not 3.500$

The budget process is changing and this date is no longer fixed this
way.  If it helps, I would encourage this group to think about the FAD
and FUDCon separately.  Hopefully a way can be found to drive more of
your budget planning virtually with the FAD being used for action, not
discussion.  However, the point is valid, and perhaps this point can
used as part of the decision matrix with regards to FADs as those are
available.

I think it is important than an event like a FUDCon have multiple
supporting organizers.  I am sure that previous FUDCon organizers will
tell you how much work is involved.  Your comment that no one else from
Indonesia is supporting you is worrisome.

Sirko, I didn't see anything in the Wiki recommending one visa type
over another.  Can you point out the suggestion and then use the wiki
to make an edit?

Actually $10 per day for 350 people is $3500.  However, at least as of
now, the wiki says $10 for 2 days.  For 350 estimated attendees at a 2
day conference this is $3500.
