Old home not protected<\/p>\n
I would like to make the following clarifications regarding a
\nnews item from The Jakarta Post published on Dec. 6 titled
\nAnother protected building destroyed. I was one of the sources
\ninterviewed on Dec. 4 by the Post.<\/p>\n
* The old building on Jl. Teuku Cik Ditiro 1, Central Jakarta,
\nwas not among protected or listed buildings, but was categorized
\nas a C grade building in the Menteng conservation area, meaning
\nthat it was allowed to be demolished. However when a new building
\ngoes up on the site, the owner will face certain rules pertaining
\nto the conservation area.<\/p>\n
* I regretted that such a unique building was demolished, and
\nthat it was not in the category of listed or protected buildings.
\nThe building once gained a conservation awareness certificate in
\n1993.<\/p>\n
* I did not make a statement about \"monitoring and
\ncontrolling\" because the structure was not listed as a protected
\nbuilding.<\/p>\n
* The uniqueness of the building is its unsymmetrical style
\nwhile others with the same style are symmetrical and formal.
\nHomes in the next period referred to the layout of such homes.<\/p>\n
I hope the above clarification avoids any potential problems.
\nI would like to remind the Post to be more cautious in its
\nreportage to avoid disadvantages to other parties.<\/p>\n
