Agung Podomoro Land vice president director Indra W. Antono said some of the basic smart technology would be bundled within the sale package of its apartments, while some others would be available according to customer preference.
“The basic smart technology for security will be provided. For instance, if we find out from our smartphones if there is smoke in our apartment, or realize that our apartment door is open, we can directly inform security,” he said. (tas)
