Post office needed

It is nice to have a new building at Sudirman Central Business District on Jl. Sudirman, South Jakarta. The building, which more than 30 floors, is situated exactly opposite the Jakarta Hilton International Hotel, to the left of Kodak (Jakarta Metropolitan City Police Office) and to the right of Bapindo Center. There is also a trading floor of the Jakarta Stock Exchange where securities valued at billions of rupiah are daily traded (except Saturday) by more than 200 securities companies. It can't be denied that they need postal materials such as stamps, duty stamps, etc. for trading and securities administration.

Besides, thousands of employees need a post office. The presence of a mini post office at the Jakarta Stock Exchange Building is vital. It would save people from having to go as far as Bendungan Hilir or Ratu Plaza to find a post office.

Also in the same building there are no public telephones at all. I hope the authorities consider the above-mentioned problem. In the meantime a mobile post office would serve the purpose.
