W. Jakarta wants warehouses moved

West Jakarta Mayor Sutardjianto is warning owners of
warehouses in the Tambora and Tamansari areas to move out as the
deadline for relocation nears.

Sutardjianto says he will forcibly close down dozens of
warehouses on Jl. Kalibesar Barat, Jl. Kalibesar Timur, Jl.
Cengkeh, Jl. Kunir, as well as warehouses around the Kota railway
station, such as those on Jl. Pinangsia and in the Roa Malaka
area, if they fail to meet the extended deadline of early next
year set by the mayoralty administration.

"We will not extend the deadline again as we have given the
owners ample time to move," he said.

He said the municipal administration had informed the owners
of the warehouses about the relocation plan nine years ago.

The areas where the warehouses are located now are no longer
considered suitable for the storage business. (09)
