Since Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia and more and more immigrants are coming for several reasons, like my family, Jakarta is becoming urbanized. A great example could be that there are lots of buildings. These are pictures that are taken from my house. They are building a new apartment, called pakubuwono signature. It has been only 3 months that they finished building pakubuwono view. The apartment that I’m living is called pakubuwono residence. The part that I don’t understand is that people are building a new apartment while not many people live in ‘pakubuwono view’. I strongly believe that an apartment should be built when there are not many places for people to live but people are just building more and more apartment. Also, building something affect people who live near that area. It is sometimes noisy. My mom always complains about this because they usually build during the night time. Moreover, I believe that that place was for local Indonesians to live but they were forced to move and it would have been hard for them to find house and others. Because of these reasons, I think that it mostly gives bad effects.
Great images. It is confusing why they would build more buildings when as you say, some are still vacant. I am sorry to hear that the construction is disturbing your family. I hate noise pollution. Did you know that Jakarta is literally sinking because of all the development that is taking place. All the malls and high rise buildings being constructed are causing Jakarta to sink which will actually lead to more flooding. When will it end? - Mr. Haske
