The name of the Indonesian capital is spelled Jakarta in English.
As you probably know, a SIM card is a removable card which contains a memory chip. MB is an acronym for megabyte.
If you mean you have to buy a SIM card and pay a megabyte charge each time you go to Jakarta, you could say, "When I go to Jakarta, I have to buy a SIM card and pay a megabyte charge."

a SIM Card in Indonesia is widely known as a "SIM Card" as well, or a "Number". So you can just use the term "SIM Card" to provider seller.
(Since its an acronym, remember to say SIM, pronounced like "Seem", do not spell it S-I-M.).
Cell Phone charge in Indonesia is called "Pulsa". This is a credit balance for you SIM Card, and the quantity is calculated in Indonesian Rupiah (IDR).
To buy a SIM Card:
in English: "I want to buy a new number for my cellphone" or "I want to but a SIM Card"
In Indonesian: "Saya mau membeli nomer baru untuk telepon genggam saya" or "Saya mau membeli SIM Card"
To buy a Cell Phone Credit Balance:
in English: "I want to refill my Cell Phone's Credit Balance" (but I'm not sure for this one)
in Indonesian: "Saya mau isi Pulsa" or simply say "Saya mau beli pulsa"
