JSX opens new info center

YOGYAKARTA (JP): The Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSX) launched an
information center at the University of Duta Wacana here Friday.

"I hope this facility will give a better chance to society to
take part in the development process, especially in the field of
investment," the university's rector Aristarchus Sukarto said in
a speech.

JSX's corporate secretary Saka Abadi said Duta Wacana's
capital market information center, better known as the JSX
corner, was the 18th it had launched since 1995. The centers were
located in Jakarta, Medan, Bandung, Ujungpandang, Denpasar,
Malang, Semarang and Yogyakarta.

Yogyakarta has five JSX corners. Four others are at AMP YKP
Management College, Gadjah Mada University, the Widya Wiwaha
School of Economy and the Islamic University of Indonesia.

According to Saka Abadi, the so-called stock corner would only
provide information on capital market activities

"That way the community and academic society will have a place
where they can learn about how to conduct good and fair trade,"
Saka told The Jakarta Post. (swa)
