KTP (indonesian ID card..everyone gets one at 17 years of age)
KK (kartu keluarga - family card) his parents will have one, of if he's married he will have his own KK. Or if he doesnt have one..he can join a KK of a relative. He will need to go and do this thru his local RT guy.. (the local village chief)
Yes, he will need a statement from his office, saying he has approved time off...and he has a job to come back too.
A school certifcate or college diploma...
An Indonesian passport actually only costs 250 thousand...but people use a "go between" to deal with the people in the immigration office.. so it depends how well you friend can bargain with an "agent" you will find them out side the immigration office :) (even tho its illegal to be there for them :) )
We got my partners passport in 3 days... and he went to a small interveiw (about 10mins long) just asking why you want to travel outside indonesia etc. He just answered, to meet my future parents in law, the lady laughed and said OK ..good luck hahaha.. he waited again for about 15mins...and got the passport and left :)
