TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Jakarta Deputy Governor Sandiaga Uno is planning to launch the zero down payment housing program on January 18, 2018. “It was my idea because it’s a very nice date.”
Jakarta administration has told the Housing Office and two developers to support the program by developing affordable apartments (rusunami).
The zero down payment housing program was promised by the Anies Baswedan and Sandiaga Uno ticket in the 2017 Jakarta gubernatorial election campaign.
Sandiaga said that Jakarta administration will build 700 to 800 pilot apartments in Pondok Kelapa. He expects the project to be rolled out by early 2018.
Jakarta Deputy Governor Sandiaga Uno estimates that the apartment construction in Pondok Kelapa will take a year to complete. “My friends say one year but based on my experience it will take around 12-18 months,” he said.
