BPK Penabur in Cikarang

JAKARTA (JP): PT Graha Buana Cikarang, developer of Cikarang Baru Kota Hijau housing complex, has handed over a plot of land to BPK Penabur Foundation for the establishment of school facilities.

The company said in a statement yesterday that the 43,759- square-meter plot of land was symbolically handed over by marketing manager of PT Graha Buana, Suhartono Widjojo, to managing director of the foundation, Jimmy Sadikin, in a ceremony on July 23.

Suhartono said the handover was intended mainly to help provide qualified educational facilities to residents of the housing complex.

"There is no need for the residents to send their children to study in other areas. School facilities ranging from kindergarten to senior high schools will be available here," he said.

The construction of facilities, including a facility to accommodate about 2,000 students, will start in 1998 and is expected to be completed by the end of 1999. (hhr)
