Jakarta is known as a city with low quality air, Nafas application was launched in September 2020, it helps people to detect the air quality around them. Nafas applications also help and give some recommendations on users activities and what to do when the air quality around them gets worse. The data presented is real-time data to help people fit their lifestyle to their surroundings.

Poor air quality has various risks that are sometimes not realized by the public. Brig the awareness about the issue of the dangers of air pollution is not an easy thing. In the short term, fine particles in the air with poor quality will cause irritation of the eyes, nose, throat and lungs, coughing, sneezing, runny nose and shortness of breath. And the worst thing, poor air quality can reduce a person’s life expectancy by up to 4.8 years.

Piotr Jakubowski, a former CMO of startup decacorn, co-founded the app with Nathan Roestandy, the founder of Nafas. Piotr as Chief Growth Officer and Nathan as Chief Executive Officer, the profiles of both are known to have had quite good experience in their respective fields. Nathan, who was previously known as the founder of Zulu, had this concerns since 2019 regarding the development of the Nafas application. They both took the an initiative to build a business through the problems experienced by residents of Jakarta and surrounding areas in accessing data and as references regarding the air quality around them. They help people to detect air quality to increase the awareness about how important it is to get good air quality to improve their change of life. 

What does Nafa offer its users? Quality data in real time can be presented through this application. Breath uses 46 sensors spread across Greater Jakarta and the sensors will update air quality data updates every 20 minutes. The data presented in the Breath application is in the form of Air Quality Index (AQI) and Particulate Matter (PM) 2.5. This application also provides the necessary recommendations according to the current air conditions. Not only that, the Nafas application also provides articles related to air conditions and all things related to air quality as well as places to shop for various goods that are still related to the business model (such as air purifiers, face masks and also air purifiers)

To be able to find out the air quality indicators from the application, they are divided into 5 categories, namely good, moderate, increased for the sensitive group, unhealed, very unhealed and Hazardous. Their appearance also shows some of the air conditions around them via map access and there are also locations with worst to good air ratings. Not only in Jabodetabek, the application has begun to develop information on air quality in the Yogyakarta and Bali areas.

    Recent Property Development

    The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

    However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

     Government Stimulus

    The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

    In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

    In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

    Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

    As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

    BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

    Positive Trend in Q3  2020

    Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

    Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

    Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

    In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

     Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

    As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

    Why Hotels?

    As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

    To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

    Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

    During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

    However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

    One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

    Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

    Indonesia plans to develop a global EV supply chain domestically | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

    “This post is written by Tashya Noviana Uwen, Market Research & Business Development at

    PT Indonesia Research Institute Japan Jakarta, a global management consulting firm on business strategy.”

     

    Indonesia is one of the countries that has the largest nickel wealth in the world which holds 52% of the total world nickel reserves which reach 139,419,000 tons of Ni. Based on data from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources which processed the 2020 USGS data, Indonesia produced 800 thousand tons of Ni, equivalent to 30% of the world’s nickel production of 2,668,000 tons of Ni (Kementerian Energi Dan Sumber Daya Mineral, 2020). This encourages the government to increase investment potential in downstream mineral mining such as nickel derivative products into electric batteries. This makes the government plan to develop a global EV or electric vehicle supply chain in the country.

    This plan is the first project in Indonesia to utilize HPAL (High Pressure Acid Leach) technology to make a mixture of nickel-cobalt hydroxide (MHP) and nickel sulfate deposits, the main raw material for making electric batteries. The project being designed is also supported by PT Bank DBS Indonesia which also supports Indonesia’s ambitions for the electric vehicle and battery manufacturing industry. In addition, DBS was also appointed as one of the main coordinators to facilitate the financing of the project and was able to develop a financing structure that could appropriately assist in responding to various challenges in the ongoing project development phase and the impact of exposure to benchmark prices.

    Globally, EV sales are expected to rise 41.9% to more than 4.4 million units in 2021.

      Recent Property Development

      The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

      However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

       Government Stimulus

      The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

      In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

      In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

      Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

      As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

      BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

      Positive Trend in Q3  2020

      There is a positive trend during Q3 2020 after it drastically dropped earlier in the year, indicates there is potential for the revival of Commercial Property Demand in Q4 2020 and the next Q1 2021.

      Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

      Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

      Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

      In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

       Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

      As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

      Why Hotels?

      As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

      To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

      Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

      During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

      However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

      One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

      Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

      Digital Health in Indonesia, How Ready? | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

      According to a study by The Pulse of Asia, digital technology plays an increasingly large role in helping to improve the health of the Indonesian people. This collaborative research study between The Economist Intelligence Unit and Prudential Corporation Asia said that the majority or almost 70 percent of respondents said that there are many benefits to using mobile health applications in getting access to information about health. In fact, in the next three years, those respondents will have more digital health technology access in order to improve their health. Digital technology also plays a role in responding to health disparities and health challenges. Indonesia has a level of acceptance of personal digital health technology, showing almost 55 percent of respondents’ openness to the use of this technology. Of course, this figure is higher than other Asian countries, showing only around 44 percent.

      The entry of the health sector into the era of disruption makes this no doubt. In fact, with various mobile applications, consultations can be carried out between doctors and their patients. It also includes ordering medicines, laboratory tests, combined with online transportation services. The advancement of digital technology is utilized by health facilities so that performance, efficiency, effectiveness, and service quality can be improved properly. The integrated electronic decision support system applied in an electronic medical record has also been implemented by several hospitals to assist doctors in making more precise therapeutic decisions according to clinical guidelines through electronic prescribing.

      Going deeper with Indonesia’s Digital Health Readiness raises some important questions, about the extent to which health regulators prepare an industry 4.0 ecosystem to protect consumer health? How complex is it? For example, what if the response to a health consultation through online services is not handled by a health professional? Rather by artificial intelligence machines? Are there standards and quality assurance that artificial intelligence solutions will be error free and have a positive impact on patients’ safety? What if there is a drug or medicine that should only be purchased with a doctor’s prescription but is available on an e-commerce site or recommended by a health mobile application service? And the list goes on.

      The Secretary General of Communications and Informatics Mira Tayyiba, stated that the Covid-19 pandemic that’s had an impact on the increasing number of digital health service users, made the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology continue to strive to strengthen synergies with digital health service providers (telemedicine) and related stakeholders. What’s reported was the Ministry of Industry’s plan to measure the readiness for the application of industry 4.0 for industry players. However, the ecosystem can be disrupted if only industry players are prepared, and no regulation. The occurrence of online transportation demonstrations may not inspire health facilities to demonstrate health mobile application services. Moreover, with no regulation, the absence of the state in protecting consumers and e-Kesehatan service actors will also be massively questioned by the public. Investors also aren’t intrigued to enter the digital health business if the regulations themselves aren’t clear or non-existent. In fact, this service has the potential to erode the inequity of access from the uneven distribution of health facilities and personnel.

      Therefore, it’s very important to strengthen the synergy with service providers. This is inseparable from the rapid development of digitalization in the health sector. In addition to continuing education programs, it’s also necessary to carry out continuous supervision in the aspect of community protection. There is also a need for assurance for consumers who use online health consulting services so that they truly consult with real and licensed doctors. Last, health workers and doctors also need professional recognition to work in e-Kesehatan services for both mutual safety and comfort.

        Recent Property Development

        The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

        However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

         Government Stimulus

        The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

        In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

        In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

        Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

        As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

        BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

        Positive Trend in Q3  2020

        There is a positive trend during Q3 2020 after it drastically dropped earlier in the year, indicates there is potential for the revival of Commercial Property Demand in Q4 2020 and the next Q1 2021.

        Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

        Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

        Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

        In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

         Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

        As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

        Why Hotels?

        As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

        To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

        Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

        During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

        However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

        One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

        Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

        Launching 5G Network in Indonesia | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

        “This post is written by Tashya Noviana Uwen, Market Research & Business Development at

        PT Indonesia Research Institute Japan Jakarta, a global management consulting firm on business strategy.”

         

        The development and improvement of the economy and technology in every country is increasingly sophisticated, including Indonesia. The stages in the development of a region or country also vary. Indonesia is an example of a country that continues to strive for technological progress, Indonesia’s efforts to continue to support the use and development of technology in the 5G network. Previously, Indonesia had successfully launched 4G technology in 2009. However, even though 4G networks could be implemented at that time, Indonesia still seemed slow in the development of cellular technology from 1G to 4G. Seeing this, Indonesia launched 5G which became a jumping-off point towards a more advanced and sophisticated Indonesia.

        5G cellular technology in Indonesia was developed to be able to support different types of uses and applications. Not only providing conventional services for mobile communications but also to support various types of industries so that it indirectly has an impact on economic growth and people’s lives. In the utilization and development of 5G technology, efforts are also needed, such as the preparation of adequate frequency spectrum bands through farming of spectrum frequency refarming. Second, encourage the development of quality and sustainable human resources or digital talents. Although up to now the key requirements of 5G technology have not been mutually agreed upon, but from the development of technology and the vision of 5G, it was found that globally this technology will be able to provide or support 1000x the data capacity capabilities of LTE technology with a speed of 1 Gbps on the user side. very dense network conditions. In addition, the government also needs to prepare a 5G technology ecosystem. This ecosystem is related to technology that supports industry 4.0 such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and blockchain.

        Telkomsel is one of the first operators to commercially provide 5G services with a 2.3GHz frequency network. According to President Director of Telkomsel Setyanto Hantoro, the launch of 5G marks the company’s efforts to become a leading operator while providing the best service for the community. Telkomsel provides 5G service areas that only reach Jabodetabek locations in six locations, namely Kelapa Gading, Pondok Indah, Pantai Indah Kapuk, Bumi Serpong Damai (BSD), Widya Chandra and Alam Sutera. However, in the development of other operators who are also trying to improve the service network, on the other hand there are obstacles that are still immature in the use of 5G services in Indonesia. This can be seen from the optimization of the government’s 5G technology implementation, which needs to be improved again so that people can experience the true sophistication of 5G technology. This is said to be due to the need to increase government preparations that are more optimal in the number of frequencies that must be owned at least at 80 MHz contiguous.

          Recent Property Development

          The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

          However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

           Government Stimulus

          The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

          In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

          In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

          Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

          As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

          BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

          Positive Trend in Q3  2020

          There is a positive trend during Q3 2020 after it drastically dropped earlier in the year, indicates there is potential for the revival of Commercial Property Demand in Q4 2020 and the next Q1 2021.

          Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

          Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

          Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

          In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

           Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

          Source : Bank Indonesia

          As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

          Why Hotels?

          As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

          To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

          Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

          Source : Instagram @harrisfxsudirman and @arunasenggigi

          During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

          However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

          One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

          Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

          Pink Lagoon in Argentina Caused By Pollution | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

          “This post is written by Faiq Rizqila, Market Research & Business Development 

          at PT Indonesia Research Institute Japan Jakarta, a global management consulting firm on business strategy.”

           

          Pollution, intentional or not, has had a devastating effect on waters around the world in recent months. A few days ago, waste pollution occurred in the southern part of Patagonia, Argentina which made the Chubut river water that flows into Lake Corfo, turn pink. This waste pollution occurs because of the chemical substance, namely sodium sulfite, is used in the shrimp preservation process by a factory for export. This causes complaints from local residents due to the pungent smell caused by the increase in insects and other environmental damage.

          According to engineer and virologist Federico Restrepo, sodium sulfite in fish waste should legally be treated before disposal. On the other hand, the head of environmental control in Chubut province, Juan Micheloud said that the discoloration would disappear within a few days and would not cause any damage. Micheloud’s statement was not accepted by the Secretary of City Planning Trelew because the statement sounded dismissive and set aside this serious issue.

          Residents of Rawson, near Trelew, have attempted to block the road to prevent trucks carrying the waste from passing. But this form of protest was deemed futile as the factories had permission from the provincial authorities to dispose of their waste in the Corfo lagoon.

          Indeed, there are dozens of foreign fish processing companies operating in Chubut province, knowing that the area is known as the center of the fish processing industry for export. In fact, Chubut’s economy is also driven by the industry from the jobs it provides.

          Although fish processing generates jobs, the company has no desire to afford the delivery of waste to a waste dump in Puetro Madryn according to environmental activist Pablo Lada.

            Recent Property Development

            The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

            However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

             Government Stimulus

            The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

            In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

            In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

            Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

            As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

            BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

            Positive Trend in Q3  2020

            There is a positive trend during Q3 2020 after it drastically dropped earlier in the year, indicates there is potential for the revival of Commercial Property Demand in Q4 2020 and the next Q1 2021.

            Source : Bank Indonesia

            Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

            Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

            Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

            In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

             Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

            As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

            Why Hotels?

            As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

            To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

            Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

            Source : Instagram @harrisfxsudirman and @arunasenggigi

            During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

            However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

            One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

                                                                                                                      Source: The Sunan Hotels Solo

            Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

            During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

            However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

            One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

            Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

            As a commitment towards carbon neutral 2060, Indonesia is ready to retire coal-fired power plants | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

            “This post is written by Ardyanti Nila, Market Research & Business Development at PT Indonesia Research Institute Japan Jakarta, a global management consulting firm on business strategy.”

            Greenpeace Indonesia activists climbed the crane of a grab ship unloader, blocking the loading of coal for the Cirebon Coal Power Plant in Indonesia, the world’s second biggest exporter of coal.

            To fulfil global requirements for clean energy and commitments to international agreements and the Leaders Summit of Climate Change 2021, Indonesia is making efforts to reduce emissions through energy transition to low-carbon energy. One of the efforts made is to reduce dependence on fossil fuel or coal-fired power plants.

            In Indonesia, coal is the largest source of primary energy mix used to produce electrical energy. The process of generating electricity using coal produces emissions that are the largest contributor to carbon emissions. For this reason, the government and SOEs are taking concrete steps to stop the construction of new PLTUs that use fossil fuels, especially coal, gradually starting in 2025. The government will also stop the operational activities of coal-fired power plants and activate power plants using New and Renewable Energy (EBT).

            This effort is described in the coal-power plant retirement roadmap to achieve carbon neutral 2060 as follows:

            The termination of PLTU construction will begin in 2025 through the replacement of the power plant with New Renewable Energy (EBT) with a baseload capacity of 1.1 GW. Then in 2030, the first phase of subcritical PLTU will be retired of around 1 GW, including PLTU Muara Karang, Tambaklorok, and Gresik. Then in 2035, the second phase of the subcritical power plant retirement will be carried out with a capacity of 9 GW.

            In the third phase, the planned retirement of supercritical steam power plants of 10 GW will be carried out in 2040. Then the fourth phase, the retirement of ultra supercritical power plants of 24 GW will be carried out in 2045 and the fifth stage, the retirement of the last supercritical steam power plants of 5 GW will be carried out in 2055

            Zulkifli Zaini, CEO of state-owned electricity utility (PLN), said that the development of New and Renewable Energy (EBT) plants will increase massively starting in 2028 due to the advancement of cheap battery technology and will increase exponentially starting in 2040. Zulkifli also emphasized that the portion of EBT is targeted to dominate the total power plant in 2045 and all power plants in Indonesia are targeted to use EBT in the next decade.

            For the construction of EBT power plants, PLN will do it carefully. According to Zulkifli, if an area’s electricity supply exceeds its capacity, then the EBT plant should not be built. Therefore, there are important things that need to be considered in developing New and Renewable Energy (EBT) in the future. First, the alignment of supply and demand; Second, the affordability; and the third, the environmental aspects.

              Recent Property Development

              The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

              However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

               Government Stimulus

              The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

              In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

              In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

              Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

              As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

              BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

              Positive Trend in Q3  2020

              There is a positive trend during Q3 2020 after it drastically dropped earlier in the year, indicates there is potential for the revival of Commercial Property Demand in Q4 2020 and the next Q1 2021.

              Source : Bank Indonesia

              Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

              Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

              Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

              In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

               Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

              As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

              Why Hotels?

              As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

              To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

              Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

              During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

              One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

              Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

              Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

              Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

              Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

              In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

               Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

              As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

              Why Hotels?

              As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

              To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

              Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

              During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

              However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

              One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

              Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

              The Effectiveness of Nafas App in Jakarta | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

              “This post is written by Tashya Noviana Uwen, Market Research & Business Development at

              PT Indonesia Research Institute Japan Jakarta, a global management consulting firm on business strategy.”

               

              Jakarta is one of the biggest areas in Indonesia with poor air quality. This is reported in a research report by the Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA), stating that the air quality in Jakarta for the last four years (2017-2020) is in a category that’s quite worrying (Lauri Myllyvirta, 2020). Reports of worse air pollution in Jakarta will also have an impact on public health problems. The government has also tried various ways to overcome this worsening air pollution issue.

              Poor air quality becomes increasingly worrying, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, which currently can spread through exposure to the virus in small particles that can stay in the air for a few minutes to several hours (Azizah, 2020). National Geographic stated that particulate pollution accounts for 15% of Covid-19 deaths. In the highly polluted countries of East Asia, the figure is up to 27%. This made Piotr Jakubowski, former CMO of Gojek, and Nathan Roestandy as Co-founder & Chief Executive Officer launch an application called Nafas.

              The launch of “Nafas” as an application that can measure air quality in the Jakarta area and its surroundings in real-time, seems to be very helpful in measuring air quality in Jakarta. This Nafas application works in collaboration with Airly to embed 45 air quality sensors spread across Jakarta, Bekasi, Depok, Tangerang, South Tangerang, and Bogor. On the sensor in the Nafas application, it can withstand heat, humidity, and rain in tropical climates such as Indonesia and will provide several notification signs if the surrounding air quality deteriorates and there is information equipped with an air quality index or air quality index (AQI).

              The Nafas application also has 27 sensors that have been installed at various points in DKI Jakarta. Each of these sensors can later provide real-time air quality data for users through the application. The application sensor can measure various pollutants in the air, measure temperature, barometric pressure, humidity and three types of particulate matter (PM), namely PM1, PM2.5, and PM10. Nafas application is expected by the government to be one of the ways that the public can be more aware of the importance of good air quality for the health of the community.

                Recent Property Development

                The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

                However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

                 Government Stimulus

                The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

                In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

                In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

                Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

                One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020.

                Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

                Recent Property Development

                The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

                However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

                 Government Stimulus

                The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

                In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

                In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

                Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

                As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

                BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

                Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

                Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

                Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

                In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

                 Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

                As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

                Why Hotels?

                As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

                To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

                Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

                During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

                However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet.

                The Problem of Food Loss & Waste and Malnutrition in Indonesia | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

                “This post is written by Faiq Rizqila, Market Research & Business Development at

                PT Indonesia Research Institute Japan Jakarta, a global management consulting firm on business strategy.”

                Food is an important element for life because food can meet one’s needs. Speaking of food, the reality shows that a lot of food is wasted by humans. This is called food loss and waste. Of course this makes Indonesia the highest producer of food waste in the world. According to the Economic Intelligence Unit, the total food waste in Indonesia reaches 300 kg/year per capita. This food waste also has a negative impact on the economy, the environment, as well as food and nutrition security.

                The National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas) in collaboration with the World Resources Institute and Waste for Change has produced a Food Loss and Waste (FWL) report. The report shows that food waste in Indonesia reached 23-48 million tons per year from 2000 to 2019. It led to an economic loss of 231 trillion to 551 trillion rupiah, equivalent to 4 to 5 percent of Indonesia’s gross domestic product. Arifin Rudiyanto, Deputy for Maritime Affairs and Natural Resources at Bappenas explained that the lack of quality of storage space, excessive portions and consumer behavior, as well as poor implementation of good handling practices are the causes of food loss and waste in Indonesia. In fact, the explanation estimates that food loss and waste in Indonesia could reach 112 million tons per year by 2045 if there is no further policy intervention.

                On the other hand, there are still many Indonesians who suffer from poor nutritions. According to the global hunger index, Indonesia was categorized into moderate, serious, and almost severe status. The Minister of Bappenas Suharso, said this food loss and waste issue is considered to be able to contribute to feeding 29 to 74 percent of the population in Indonesia.

                To address this issue, a number of strategies have been prepared by the government in managing this food loss and waste. First, the community must be educated so that they have awareness about this FWL and conduct extension services in the regions. Second, optimizing funding and strengthening regulations so that food infrastructure can be improved and FWL regulations can be developed at regional and national levels, as well as emphasizing this issue. Third, conducting integrated FWL data collection and studies at all levels. Fourth, efficiency in the food production process and support of the food system. Finally, encourage the development of food distribution platforms and the development of examples of the use of FLW at the district and city scale.

                Thus, in planning and developing efforts to address this issue requires identification of Food Loss and Waste. Why is that, because it is important to remember that the waste problem faced by Indonesia is a complex issue that requires integrated handling.

Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

                  The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

                  In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

                  In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

                  Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

                  As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

                  BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

                  Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

                  Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

                  Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

                  In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

                  As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

                  Why Hotels?

                  As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

                  To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

                  Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

                  During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

                  However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

                  One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

                  Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

                  Sengokuhara Grass field | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

                  “This post is written by Gabriela Wibisono, Marketing & Business Development at PT Indonesia Research Institute Japan Jakarta”

                  This grass field is located in Hakone. Sengokuhara grass fields are tall grasses that cover the land for a few hundred meters and change color depending on the season. Usually, this grass field is visited by many visitors in autumn because the grass turns a very beautiful light golden color at this time of year.

                  Sources : https://www.fun-japan.jp/id/articles/10067

                  From the grass field there is a path that leads to the west to a slope. If visitors manage to walk along this path, visitors will arrive at a slope and can see the landscape, which is amazing. Along this path, visitors can enjoy and see how it feels to walk on a path with beautiful grass. This path was created to make it easier for visitors to walk through the Sengokuhara Grass field, but also to get to the end of the grass field and of course so that visitors do not get lost while walking through this grass field. This path runs in 2 directions, so visitors are asked to walk slowly so as not to cause any disturbances or clashes between other visitors. Walking along this path, visitors will notice that these grasses are quite tall, almost as tall as a human being

                   

                  The grass changes in every season, in summer the grass becomes light green, in September it becomes greenish-yellow and in November it becomes golden-white. In winter, the grass turns brown and eventually dies. In the spring, the grass is cleaned and cared for so that it can grow back healthy.

These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

                    One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

                    Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

                    Recent Property Development

                    The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

                    However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

                     Government Stimulus

                    The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.

                    In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

                    In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

                    Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

                    As of September 2020, BTN has provided home ownership credit support (KPR) of 93,448 units which cost as much as Rp. 15.6 trillion. These support provided by BTN is significant for the survival of the business property sector.

                    BTN commitment on supporting business property has not slackened. In fact, during the pandemic, BTN continuously provides support for the government program.The distribution of subsidized KPR is still a mainstay of BTN for the One Million Houses program.

                    Positive Trend in Q3  2020

                    There is a positive trend during Q3 2020 after it drastically dropped earlier in the year, indicates there is potential for the revival of Commercial Property Demand in Q4 2020 and the next Q1 2021.

                    Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

                    Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

                    Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

                    In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

                     Meanwhile, the growth in the total commercial property index jumped drastically in Bogor, Depok and Bekasi. Same case with Jakarta, its hotel sector are also the most prominent in reviving, at least in the Q3 2020.

                    As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

                    Why Hotels?

                    As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

                    To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

                    Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

                    Kaiyuukan Aquarium | Indonesia Research Intitute Japan

                    “This post is written by Gabriela Wibisono, Marketing & Business Development at PT Indonesia Research Institute Japan Jakarta”

                     

                    The Kaiyuukan Aquarium is located in Minato, Osaka City. The aquarium was first opened in 1990 and was the largest public facility in the world at that time. The opening of the Kaiyukan Commendation was said to be very successful, as it was visited by about 1 million people in just 40 days after its opening. And in just 101 days, it was visited by 2 million people. A year after the holiday, it was visited by 5.6 million people. In this way, this is a visit that has the most visitors in Japan.

                    Sources : https://www.befreetour.com/id/detail/152-jepang-osaka-aquarium-kaiyukan

                    When visiting kaiyukan, there are 15 animal giants with 620 kinds of marine animals and more than 30,000 marine animals. One of the things that visitors are interested in is the glass giant, which has a height of about 9 meters and a length of about 34 meters. This giant houses the whale, the largest animal in the ocean. Unlike other tourist attractions, visitors to Kaiyukan can see various marine animals from the 8th floor and slowly descend to the lower floors. Visitors can see various marine animals that live in the Pacific Ocean.

                     

                    In addition, the kaiyukan award also features marine animal attractions such as dolphins and sea lions. Before the show starts, the staff and officers of the show give a brief explanation about the attractions that will be performed. Then the attraction starts distributing the food…. The attraction that is shown when the food is distributed is that the staff tries to distribute the food in a certain way or at a certain angle so that the marine animals can perform the attraction directly. For example, the food is held from a fairly high height so that the marine animals have to bang their heads to get the food, just as sea lions can stand with their tails. Visit kaiyukan to experience the attraction of giving food to marine animals!

                      Recent Property Development

                      The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

                      However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

                      In early March 2020, the Government decided to increase the allocation of housing financing assistance by IDR 1.5 trillion for Low-Income Communities (MBR). This was stated by the Director General of Infrastructure Financing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Eko Djoeli Heripoerwanto in a webinar, Wednesday (29/7/2020).

                      In addition, the Government also has Bank BTN as their partner-collaboration to implement their OMH Program aimed at Low-Income Communities (MBR) with low interest rates and low installments for the purchase of a prosperous tread house and a welfare apartment.

                      Bank BTN noted, in 2015 they have provided housing financing assistance totaling 474,099 units. Then in 2016 as many as 595,540 units, in 2017 to 666,806 units, in 2018 to 755,093 units, and in 2019 to 735,749 units.

                      Hotels and convention halls are two sectors whose demand has risen quite drastically in the Q3 after falling badly in the previous quarter. This demonstrates positive potential for its development in the future. Meanwhile, the demand of apartment remains low and still struggles to revive until now.

                      Growth of Commercial Property Demand in Jabodetabek

                      Overall in Jabodetabek, the commercial property sector also experienced a positive increase during Q3 2020.

                      In Jakarta, all commercial property demands show positivism with hotels being the most prominent in their development at Q3 2020. After previously shows a negative number, the total index in Q3 has at least increased to be positive.

                      As we can see on charts above, the hotel segment shows a great improvement in demand. This was driven by various kinds of promotions offered by hotels to adapt in this situation such as providing huge discount, staycation packages, working from hotels offer, and wedding reception packages.

                      Why Hotels?

                      As Indonesia gradually eases lockdown restrictions, the hotel occupancy rates across the country including Jakarta, have slowly started to pick up. However this is not without several efforts and sacrifices driven by people in the hotels sector to improve and revive the hospitality business sector in Indonesia.

                      To get through this hard times, efficiency and innovation are the main keys. Therefore, there are several trends created specifically to adapt to this era. Hotels competing with each other to offer a flood of discounts. To further intensify its sales strategy, there are several e-commerce platforms that is becoming a  great place to advertise rooms and staycation packages, such as Traveloka. The Buy Now Stay Later also sticks to this trend.

                      Another new trend is the Work From Hotel (WFH). As you might know, the abbreviation of WFH was initially stands for Work From Home. To connect the dots, Working From Hotel then exist and created because there are more and more office workers are getting bored with the atmosphere of their house and desperate to look for a new atmosphere. It’s a trend where hotels prepare rooms, complete with equipment and facilities to work (e.g : Wi-Fi , stationer, and free printing facilities,etc).

                      During the transitional PSBB period, indoor wedding receptions are allowed to be held again after previously was banned temporarily due to the massive increase of the Covid-19 spread. This becomes the opportunity that triggers the revival for the hotel business.

                      However, this permission is also accompanied by the requirement to fulfill and comply with the health protocols made by the government. These includes the limitation of attendees to a maximum of 25 percent of normal capacity. Then, the seating distance for visitors is set at least 1.5 meters. Visitors are also prohibited from passing by or changing seats. The eating and drinking utensils must be sterilized, while the serving of food is prohibited from using a buffet. Last but not least, the wedding staffs are required to wear a mask, face shield and gloves.

                      One of the breakthrough in this trend was the make of  “Virtual Wedding” ever since June 2020. As this was the case held by The Sunan Hotel Solo, which offer a virtual wedding service package for 44.5 million. The event is only attended by the couple and their family members, meanwhile guests are able to attend the wedding virtually through various platforms such as Zoom, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, while enjoying food sent by the hotel to their residences.

                      Finally, we might conclude that the property business in Indonesia has the potential to develop more despite the massive impact it has taken from pandemic outburst. Combining the stakeholders effort and the government’s support to stimulate this sector are expected to help revive the business sector in the future.

                      Recent Property Development

                      The Covid-19 pandemic has dealt a quite severe blow to the property business sector in 2020. During the PSBB period, business activities were very sluggish and it can be said that some business actors suffered severe losses.

                      However, entering the new normal period, the economic activity in several sectors including property has begun to revive from the previous period. The role of the government triggers the revival of Indonesia’s property business activities.

                       Government Stimulus

                      The assistance provided by the government is in the form of subsidies or incentives for interest subsidies to debtors of public housing credit (KPR), which is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 138 / PMK.05 / 2020 and amendments to PMK 85 / PMK.05 / 2020 regarding the guidelines for providing interest subsidies in the effort to implement the National Economic Recovery program.
