Thanks to Le Meridien

Thanks to Le Meridien

From Kompas

I am currently employed by one of the companies in Wisma Metropolitan on Jl. Sudirman, and I think I represent other employees in the vicinity in conveying belated gratitude to the management of Le Meridien Hotel for providing security on the pedestrian bridge in front of the hotel for the past 18 months.

This bridge is particularly notorious for its pickpockets and muggers, and I can refer to two experiences I had, both in the morning at around eight when I was confronted by at least three culprits.

This problem should be brought to the police's immediate attention, who are responsible for security, as in the early hours you can find numerous police officers in the area, who seem to prioritize violations of the "3-in-1" traffic policy (which is possibly more "lucrative") instead of providing security for pedestrians on this and certainly all the other pedestrian bridges in the city.

Security from the police would surely be one way of reducing preman (hoodlums) and the daredevils who would rather run across the street than face the dangers above them.

Le Meridien Hotel, once again thank you. Police department, your attention please!
