Beware of `goats' in the park
Beware of `goats' in the park
The North Jakarta mayoralty will install a goat statue in all
its parks to encourage the local people to take care of the
gardens.
North Jakarta Mayor Suprawito told newsmen that people who
destroy gardens will be thought of as goats.
He also criticized some private companies alongside Jl. Yos
Sudarso, a major thoroughfare in the mayoralty, which ignored the
administration's repeated request to preserve their gardens.
The mayoralty's spokesman, Muhammad Napis, told the Bisnis
Indonesia daily that the preservation cost of the 75 parks in
North Jakarta increased from Rp 1.7 billion (US$782,700) last
year to Rp 2.5 billion this year. (03)
