Hi Observer,
Yes at Padang Airport (BIM = Bandara International Minangkabau) have 2 ATM, I thinks Mandiri Bank and Danamon Bank. normally can cash withdraw beetween IDR 5.000.000 till 10.000.000 (in USD 500 - 1000), you will receive in Rupiah 50.000 or 100.000 bank note.
Elvis,
Thnak you very much for your reply. ObserverUk asked me in an email, but I was not sure.
I have never had to use an atm at the Padang airport.

Thanks Elvis, you are a star!
On the subject of money - I want to carry some hard currency in cash for emergencies or when I can't get to an ATM.
Which currency do you think will be most widely wanted - US Dollar, Euro, Singapore Dollar, GBR Pound?
I am from UK so Pounds will be easier for me but if they are not widely accepted........then I will buy some other currency.
I read that people only change crisp new notes, thats why I'm thinking Singapore Dollars.
I've had different answers to this question so wonder what folk here think.
Thanks
Hi,
Just take GBP with you. No point exchanging to Sing dollars first unless you are already there in Singapore.
All the major currencies, USD, Euros, GBP, Aus Dollars are easy to exchange everywhere.
The notes dont have to be crisp though you may have trouble exchanging if they are crumpled or damaged in anyway.
in Padang have money changer and Bank, accept for change money, most currency in the world such GBP/Pound, USD, SGD, MYR, AUD, EURO etc. prefer good / new Bank Note 100 for easy change and good rate, at Padang airport also have money changer.
