Is BNI City approved?

Is BNI City approved?

From Neraca

We learned from the media that a kampong in the Dukuh Atas
area, Central Jakarta, is called "BNI City". In this area BNI
bank and a hotel of international standards have been built. More
luxurious buildings are going to be built later.

According to the regulation, even a name of a street must have
the approval of the legislative body. So in this case, has the
legislative body given its approval in naming the village "BNI
City"? Even if the body has approved the name, it sounds strange
that there is a city within a city. Can't they use Indonesian
words to name their village? We should have national pride by
using national identities.

I call on the authority to be firm enough in dealing with the
developers who tend to use foreign words like "City" and
"village" to name housing complexes.
