Jakarta (ANTARA) - William Aditya Sarana, a member of the DKI Jakarta\nDPRD, has called on Governor Pramono Anung to follow through on his\ncommitment to provide space and housing for Generation Z in Jakarta by\nimplementing concrete policies.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot long ago, Pramono stated that Jakarta must provide even greater\nspace for Gen Z children. I believe the space in question includes space\nto live and reside in Jakarta,\u201d William said in Jakarta on Friday.<\/p>\n
According to him, one of the difficulties faced by young people in\nhaving living space in Jakarta is the high cost of owning or renting\nhouses and apartment units (rusun), including apartments in the\ncapital.<\/p>\n
Based on data collected in 2023, house prices in Jakarta range from\nRp800 million to Rp10 billion, depending on the area and land size.<\/p>\n
Simple housing with a land area of 30-50 square metres (m\u00b2) in East\nJakarta is priced at Rp800 million. And the price of a regular house\nwith a land area of 100-200 m\u00b2 can reach Rp10 billion. Of course, the\nprice can be even higher than that.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis situation is certainly not unrelated to the limited housing in\nJakarta. First, due to the chaotic urban planning, which makes land\nincreasingly scarce. However, this is also caused by the real estate\nmarket conditions that make housing prices continue to soar,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n
The housing policy by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani could serve\nas an example for the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.<\/p>\n
\u201cMas Pram can emulate Zohran in New York with the Pied-\u00e0-Terre Tax\npolicy or luxury property tax. How the government intervenes to regulate\nreal estate ownership so that housing prices can become affordable again\nfor its residents and create real spatial justice, especially for young\npeople who are indeed struggling to find housing,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
Previously, Pramono stated that Gen Z must be given the widest\npossible space as part of efforts to build Jakarta into a global\ncity.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf Jakarta wants to advance as a global city, inclusive, in\naccordance with Law Number 2 of 2024, then the role of Gen Z must\nreceive maximum space,\u201d he said, discussing the implementation of Law\nNumber 2 of 2024 on the Special Capital Region of Jakarta Province.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, Pramono explained that Gen Z has an emancipatory spirit\nin responding to various emerging social-political issues.<\/p>\n
\u201cGen Z views emancipation as the right to choose an authentic life\npath, whether becoming a leader in the technology industry, a driver of\nthe creative economy, or voicing social issues through social media,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/dki-provincial-government-needs-to-provide-affordable-housing-for-gen-z-1778248451", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
