Mal Citraland name inaugurated

Wed, 24 May 1995

JAKARTA (JP): West Jakarta Mayor Suterdjianto has inaugurated the use of "Mal Citraland" for the complex previously known as "Citraland Mall".

The ceremony marking the name-change was held in the mall complex in West Jakarta on Monday.

The change was made in response to the city administration's call for the use of Indonesian names instead of foreign names. It was timed to follow the launching of the National Discipline Movement campaign by President Soeharto on May 20.

Besides Mal Citraland, the Ciputra Group has also changed "Citraland Hotel Jakarta" to "Hotel Citraland Jakarta", "Citraland Mall Semarang" ("Mal Citraland Semarang"), "Citra Garden" ("Perumahan Citra"), "Citraland City Surabaya" ("CitraRaya Surabaya Kota Mandiri"), "CitraGrand City--City of the Arts" ("CitraRaya Tangerang-Kota Nuansa Seni") and "Citraland Regency Apartment" ("Apartemen Citra Regency").
