KGC construction goes on

JAKARTA: PT Persada Gading Elok, the construction company for
the Kelapa Gading Center, will improve the center's design and
increase the foundation height to 4.2 meters in order to avoid
floods that might hit the capital in the future.

Kelapa Gading in North Jakarta, which is considered to be one
of the most elite areas in the city, was inundated by up to 1.5
meters of water in the three weeks of flooding which began in
late January.

Many residents have reportedly decided to sell their houses to
avoid the problem in the future.

PT Persada Gading Elok said in its release that the center's
construction was expected to be completed by the end of this
year.

The center will also cooperate with the Matahari Group, one of
the biggest retail chains in the country, to open the supermarket
as an anchor tenant along with the Time Zone gaming center. --
