Islamic Village replies

From Suara Karya

In response to Mr. Ilhamy Elias' letter on April 10, I need to
give the following clarification:

1. In 1972, the Islamic Village Foundation invited taklim
council members in Jakarta to participate in the acquisition of
land in Kelapa Dua village, Curug, Tangerang, in a plan to build
a pilot project for a settlement area, mainly for Moslems.

2. In 1976, the foundation persuaded all people who had bought
a plot of land to start building their houses. Up until 1987,
however, only 14 members responded to the invitation.

3. Based on the conditions and objective of the permit by the
Tangerang regional administration, the Islamic Village Foundation
was obliged to carry out the construction of the infrastructure
and houses, according to the site plan legalized by the Tangerang
planning and development board.

4. The construction of the Islamic Village's infrastructure
could not be carried out by the foundation without a concerted
contribution based on each landowner's plot size.

5. Until now, 1997, the construction of the infrastructure and
houses has gone through stages I, II, III and IV, in which 696
members have received their plots of land. The plots of land have
been given certificates in the name of 433 buyers. There are
prospective buyers who have not joined in the program of the
construction of the infrastructure and houses.

6. The Islamic Village Foundation has carried out the
construction of the Villa Ilhami houses and has assigned PT
Mustika Hadi Asri as the developer for land owned by the Islamic
Village Foundation.

Members who have ordered plots of land can obtain information
from the section of land and construction at the Islamic Village
Foundation during business hours.
