Students protest housing project

JAKARTA (JP): Fifty students from various universities in Malang, East Java, went to the House of Representatives yesterday to protest the conversion of an agricultural school campus into a real estate area.

The placard-waving students were received by several legislators of the Armed Forces faction. Through the House members they demanded that the developer, PT Bangun Karsa Bentala, stop construction.

The 28-hectare campus in the very fertile Bumi Tanjung area is considered the lungs of the city. (05)
