The once sleepy river port on sungai Siak, has transformed into one of Indonesia’s oil capitals, with all the hustle and bustle of a modern city. Long before today\'s affordable air travel, it served as a transit point for tourists between ferries from Singapore. Following the Americans striking oil back in the 1930\'s, Pekanbaru\'s economy was heavily dependent on oil revenues and now its not uncommon to have a conversation with a Western oil executive, on a business trip when visiting.
Pangkalpinang is the largest city on the island of Bangka and is also the provincial capital of Bangka-Belitung. Once a major tin producing center for Indonesia, this port city is slowly being recognized as a must visit tourist destination, for its beautiful unspoiled beaches and tidy laid out city. Some must see locations when in Pangkalpinang include Museum Timah, which tells the history of Bangka\'s tin mining history, the many Chinese temples located around the city and Pasir Padi Beach.
