I'm Indonesian, and according to my understanding, you cannot have
just one answer to all your problems. Instead, you can have one answer
for each of your problem:
- Buy a local CDMA-based card for the lowest rate of mobile phone
conversation (e.g. Esia, Telkom Flexi, or StarOne). The availability
of this service may vary among the cities in Indonesia, but if you
intend to stay in Jakarta, all of them are available easily.
- Buy a specific international calling card which enables you to make
international phone call, including to the US. It's quite cheap, I
believe. As far as I know it's around US$ 0.08/minute. These cards are
available in the local telecommunication shops which are available in
any 1 km radius.

Hope this helps..
