there is anecdotal evidence that using any of the airport paid services may assist with passage through.
This applies to both VIP and porterage.
Maybe there is a "pool" system operating or whatever, and everone gets a cut.....as is the norm for Indonesia.
Normally at the carousel there are plenty of people milling around, and if there are many BTF people on the flight, you may be surrounded by people all wiping sweat off their brow with wet wipes and looking very suspicious!!!!
Just get in amongst them.
My mail is open if you need to discuss further.
