Ahok wants more flats for Jakarta

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama hopes Jakarta can have more flats built for the public, as it turns 489 today.

"For Jakartas birthday, I hope the city will have more affordable flats for the people. Which is why we continue the effort in building more," said Basuki in the City Hall, Central Jakarta on Wednesday.

The availability of affordable flats will allow the citys government to relocate more people from the slums, said the Governor widely known as Ahok.

"If we have a lot of flats, the relocation task will run much smoother. The target is to build 50,000 units per year," he noted.

Other than flats, he also hopes to build more Child Friendly Public Facilities all across the capital city.

"I want Jakarta to have a lot of Child Friendly Public Facilities, where the public can gather and get to know each other, turning strangers to friends," he reiterated.

The former member of the House of Representatives also hopes for continuous improvement for Jakartas transportation system, so much that people may begin to stop relying on their own vehicle.

"As for transportation, surely I hope for congestion to be reduced, which is why we strive to provide adequate transportation, so people are prompted to switch to public transportation," he remarked.(*)
