Keep in mind that the more AS hops there are between you and Indosat, the 
less effective that any hackery you do in your own BGP table will be.

Two things need to happen:
1. Indosat needs to clean their mess up.
2. Indosat's upstreams need to apply some BGP clue to Indosat's 
announcements.

It's pretty clear that both parties have dropped the ball in a big way, 
in terms of sane BGP filtering practices.
