C. Jakarta has new immigration office

JAKARTA (JP): The Central Jakarta Immigration office has been
moved from its tiny office on Jl. Teuku Umar to a new building at
Jl. Merpati Blok B12/3, Kemayoran starting from Monday this week,
an official said.

Coordinator for Immigration Affairs of the Jakarta regional
Ministry of Justice office, Hamsuk S. Wijaya, said in a statement
that the former office was too narrow and no longer comfortable
for the staff serving the public.

"The immigration service at the Central Jakarta immigration
office has recorded a rapid increase in cases handled," Hamsuk
said, giving no figures.

Since moving on Monday, the office has already provided all
kinds of immigration services, including the procurement of new
passports, temporary residence permits (kitas), permanent
residence permits (kitap), exit and reentry permits as well as
other documents. (emf)
