Security in Bumi Serpong Damai

Security in Bumi Serpong Damai

From Media Indonesia

Our motto in Bumi Serpong Damai is "comfortable in a fresh environment". Almost all facilities needed for the convenience of the complex's residents are available. However, the condition of the complex's security is beginning to concern us. Especially to a retired person like me, who badly needs a quiet and safe area to live in, Bumi Serpong Damai has become an intolerable human habitat.

Besides frequent cases of theft, trouble makers usually extort money from some of the newcomers, who are moving in to this area. Refusal to pay the thugs, as they demand, would result in their beating the driver or the moving residents. In fact, the security personnel have done their best to curb this ill-practice, something for which we are grateful. But the region is so large that they are incapable of coping with all the cases.

There is one more thing which calls for the real estate management's attention. Fencing of the area should cover all sectors instead of only giving priority and privilege to Sector VI and Angrek Loka. Why does this discrimination exist?

Besides, the management of Bumi Serpong Damai should give the opportunity to the young people to actively participate in the development, as they did in Bintaro Jaya. The local people living around the complex were involved in the development, so that they did not have the impression of being neglected.
