Unsafe parking in Taman Ria

Unsafe parking in Taman Ria

From Bisnis Indonesia

On Saturday, April 27, 2002, two friends of mine and I had a
meeting in Pulau Dua restaurant, Senayan. I entered the parking
area at 1:03 p.m. and parked my car, B 1261 YS, in a space about
100 meters from the entrance gate.

After the meeting at about 3:53 p.m, I found the front left
window of my car had been smashed and the car stereo was missing.
When I asked for reimbursement for my damaged car, the management
of Taman Ria and the Pulau Dua restaurant did not give a positive
response.

The Secure Parking head there, Fidelis, said his company
policy did not provide for such a reimbursement. A security
officer of Pulau Dua restaurant, M. Yuswar, also said that there
were only two people on duty in front of the entrance gate of the
restaurant on that day.

I really deplore the attitude of the restaurant's security
officer as well as the Taman Ria parking management. Due to their
negligence, my car has been damaged and I cannot get any
reimbursement. I suffered financial losses although I paid a
parking fee of Rp 1000 per hour in an effort to ensure my car was
safe, including prevention of any damage to my car.
