“Improving the investment climate to make Jakarta a business and economic center on a global scale requires spatial arrangements that can provide legal and rights certainty,” said Arvin in his remarks from the Jakarta REI (Realestat Indonesia) Regional Working Meeting, Thursday (8/9/2022).

For this reason, REI welcomes the issuance of regulation from the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government (Pemprov) which is listed in Pergub 31 of 2022 regarding the detailed plan for the Spatial Planning of the Jakarta Provincial Planning.

Previously, Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Ahmad Riza Patria believed that property investment in Jakarta would continue to have potential, especially with the presence of Governor Regulation No. 31 of 2022.

“The governor’s regulation can be a legal certainty that is fair for the community in the use of space to realize Jakarta as a business and economic center through optimizing the use of productive space,” he explained.
