WR Supratman National Park

WR Supratman National Park

From Merdeka

Much has been said about the plan to build the Jakarta Tower, which would be about five times as tall as the National Monument and funded by three conglomerates. The House of Representatives is strongly against the project.

I would like to propose that instead of the Jakarta Tower, a "WR Supratman National Park" be built in Kemayoran. The park would honor WR Supratman as the composer of our national anthem Indonesia Raya. The bust of the composer is in the park.

The park is also useful for regreening purposes, where 27 species of trees originating from each province are planted. For future generations this is particularly essential for fostering a sense of unity and integrity.
