orking with six developers, the administration will build 5,500 low-cost apartments in East, West and North Jakarta for residents affected by the city's relocation projects.
Housing and Administrative Buildings Agency head Ika Lestari Aji said the developers were Agung Sedayu, Agung Podomoro, PT Jakarta Propertindo, Intiland, Summarecon and Sampoerna Land.
'They will build the low-cost apartments to fulfill their responsibility as developers operating in Jakarta. They will start construction this year and hopefully the facilities can be ready to use early next year,' Ika told reporters after a meeting at City Hall recently.
She added that the low-cost apartments would be built in Rawa Bebek, Cakung, East Jakarta; Muara Angke, North Jakarta; and Daan Mogot, West Jakarta.
'All the units will be for residents who will be evicted. The low-cost apartments will be completed with various facilities such as health clinics, markets, mosques and PAUD [early childhood learning centers] if needed,' Ika said. (***)
