Who regulates billboards?

Who regulates billboards?

I am expatriate currently working and living in Jakarta and
have enjoyed several assignments in the capital city since 1979
for periods in excess of two/three years at various times.

Over the last few months I have become concerned at an
evolution of "environmental pollution" creeping into Jakarta in
regards to the various advertising hoarding starting to be
erected in the city.

Of particular disappointment is the very large advertising/
signage displays being erected in some of the key "focal" points
of the city. A major example is one of the best-photographed
sites in Indonesia, and one known historically worldwide -- that
of the Hotel Indonesia traffic circle.

I particularly point out the huge hoarding on the Hotel
Indonesia site (a neon monstrosity at night) and what looks like
an even larger hoarding now erected in front of the Nusantara
Building. I have no problems in advertising billboards being
erected around town but these are enormous, spoil the ambience of
both buildings, and destroy what was once a pleasant line of
sight view of the Welcome Monument.

Who is regulating?
