Disappointed by SCTV

Disappointed by SCTV

From Forum Keadilan

Some time ago SCTV asked me for the use of my villa in Anyer, West Java. The wanted to shoot Dessy there because one of the episodes needed a beach location. I agreed and permitted them to use the whole villa including its yard which protrudes into the sea.

A memorandum of understanding was prepared by SCTV. One paragraph stipulated that if I (the second party) "do not fulfill my obligation as agreed upon, then I am obliged to refund all expenses born by the first party (SCTV) to pay the cost of another villa as a substitute."

I signed the agreement and sent it back to SCTV. I was informed that the shooting was to begin at 8 a.m. I left at 5 a.m. for Anyer because the journey takes over two hours. I arrived just after 7.30 and prepared everything for the shoot, including two speedboats and two jetskies in case they needed them as props.

The SCTV crew didn't show up and they never informed me about the cancellation. I have no intention to claim for any compensation.

I used to regard SCTV as professional, but now I think of them as slack.
