Parking in Senen

Parking in Senen

From Media Indonesia

On Feb. 24, my friend and I entered the Atrium Senen parking
lot around 6 p.m. I parked my black Honda Grand Impressa
motorcycle with license plate number B 5860 KR. I was rushing to
dusk prayer, but I did not forget to lock the handlebars. I did
not feel any anxiety as there seemed to be good security provided
by the security guards and even from the police, at least at that
time.

An hour later, I decided to go home and went straight to the
parking lot. I was shocked to find my motorcycle had disappeared.
Actually its location was difficult to discern, as the security
computer showed that no vehicle with the same number plate as
mine had left the lot. The Plaza Atrium Senen parking lot has a
good reputation, but that is what happened to my motorcycle.

I asked the lot's management to take responsibility for the
theft but I got the following answer: "You only rent the place
for Rp 200, and we are expected to compensate you in the
millions." This is very disappointing. If the management could
provide good service it would certainly attract more visitors to
the famed shopping center.

I hope this incident draws the attention of the management to
improve their service.
