  • Only Yesterday in Jakarta: Property Boom and Consumptive Trends in the Late New Order Metropolitan City
    Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 38, No.4, March 2001 Only Yesterday in Jakarta: Property Boom and Consumptive Trends in the Late New Order Metropolitan City ARAI Kenichiro* Abstract The development of the property industry in and around Jakarta during the last decade was really conspicuous. Various skyscrapers, shopping malls, luxurious housing estates, condominiums, hotels and golf courses have significantly changed both the outlook and the spatial order of the metropolitan area. Behind the development was the government's policy of deregulation, which encouraged the active involvement of the private sector in urban development. The change was accompanied by various consumptive trends such as the golf and cafe boom, shopping in gor­ geous shopping centers, and so on. The dominant values of ruling elites became extremely con­ sumptive, and this had a pervasive influence on general society. In line with this change, the emergence of a middle class attracted the attention of many observers. The salient feature of this new "middle class" was their consumptive lifestyle that parallels that of middle class as in developed countries. Thus it was the various new consumer goods and services mentioned above, and the new places of consumption that made their presence visible. After widespread land speculation and enormous oversupply of property products, the property boom turned to bust, leaving massive non-performing loans. Although the boom was not sustainable and it largely alienated urban lower strata, the boom and resulting bust represented one of the most dynamic aspect of the late New Order Indonesian society. I Introduction In 1998, Indonesia's "New Order" ended.

The objectiveof the monitor- ing and evaluation is to analyze the status of the government assisted public hydrants and water terminals, problems occur during the project implementation, their operation and management, the impact, and the community perception of the program. The result will serve as inputs to improve the program as well as for the basis to define future similarprograms inNorth Jakarta or inother areas. The Monitoring and evaluation was conducted for six months since October 1989 to March 1990. To get maximal data the Yayasan Dian Desa team integratedto the localpeople by living for 5 months in several kampungs of the monitoring area in North Jakarta. Besides direct interaction with the community, the team interviewed 650 families, 150 pushcartwater vendors and all the public hydrants and water terminal caretakers (104). Yayasan Dian Desa would not be able to conduct the monitoring and evaluation well without the assis- tance of many people involved in the project. We therefore would like to thank Dr. Sukirman and Mr. Adam from Bappenas, Mr. Tambing from DAB Cipta Karya who have given their valuable inputs and ideas, to Mr.

  • N Kaul at the LBF 09
    [email protected] AT THE LBF Approaching the London Book Fair in Earls Court some time ago, I saw an unpaid translator with a placard protesting outside a massive exhibition pavilion where tens of thousands of books were on display. The organisers of the Fair describe it as “the global marketplace for rights negotiation and the sale and distribution of content across print, audio, TV, film and digital channels”. There are demarcated special access areas where agents, media people, and publishers have their negotiations and do the deals that make the headlines in the trade periodicals. For the most part, the Fair is a labyrinthine alphabetical array of stalls that belong to publishers and other associated services (such as shipping, paper supply, design) from around the world who display their wares and spend hours hunched over tables with potential business partners matched through online appointments diary for the registrants; there are free pens, sweet baskets, big flashy logos and props (to wit, a large fake red London Bus sitting on an orange carpet). At lunchtime and close of day, a tide of suits and blackberry devices is disgorged into the tube station across the road. Of course, it is essentially a trade event where books are a mere commodity. As an author and academic, I spend most of my life pretending books are thoughts more than they are things, so what was I doing there? Well, as a first-time novelist I felt it would be a reality- check (and so it was!), as an innate voyeur trained partly in abstract economics, I thought
