There used to be turbulences years ago. Has the situation stabilised and
it is safe to walk around, even at night?

I go there 2-3 times a year. I have no problems with personal safety, apart
from the occasional unstable sidewalk/footpath. It's not a hugely
late-opening town but I've been around Blok M at 1am or so without feeling
uncomfortable. Jakarta taxi drivers - especially from the Blue Bird Group -
are among the most reliable in Asia.
