Developer's neglect

Developer's neglect

From Kompas

On behalf of the inhabitants of Pondok Timur Indah I am
addressing this open letter to PT Kreasi Graha Raya (Raya Incorp
group) as the developer of the Pondok Timur Indah I and II
residences.

Residents complain of the neglect of the roads, drains, and
public facilities. The residential complex has not been handed
over to the Bekasi administration, so the company is still
obliged to put the facilities in order.

The roads are in a bad condition, in particular the internal
street network. Most of the asphalt has been eroded. The streets
are muddy after the rains, and can hardly be used. The main
street is somewhat better because it has recently been repaired,
although in a cursory manner.

Drains serve little purpose because they are covered by earth.
Rainwater remains on the street. A number of inhabitants have
made partial repairs. The drainage network is still the
obligation of the developer.

The state of the intended social and general facilities is
also unclear. There is no prayer house nor sportsfield, only a
tennis court. No playground is available.

We have often read about all of this in Kompas. One of the
company directors and a manager once met us in an interview. We
reported the existing situation to gain their attention.
Apparently it had fallen on deaf ears.

The houses have all been sold, but there are no signs that the
facilities have been tackled properly.

We request that the Bekasi administration does not accept the
transfer of the complex of Pondok Timur Indah if it's continues
to be inadequate.
We also appeal to the Indonesian Real Estate Association (REI)
to compel PT Kreasi Graha Raya to honor its promise.
