BTS Tower Focused at Jakarta Tower

Can not be denied at this time the tower base tranceiver station (BTS) in Jakarta is outgrowing the city. There are an estimated 3400 towers. Therefore, the Jakarta government will manage the placement of the tower into three distribution patterns and the Jakarta Tower in Kemayoran, Central Jakarta, as the central tower BTS. In addition, each mobile operator and Internet provider is also required to use fiber optic cable network (fiber-optic network) to access the network in the city.

Jakarta tower is a representative to be a very central BTS tower in Jakarta. The tower is built on the land area of 5.3 hectares of this is a development consisting of integrated telecommunications and broadcasting tower multi-function, with a height of 558 meters. Not to mention, the tower supportes various functions so that the property be a destination center.

With the support of this, the public benefits that can be given, among others, can be a support system of telecommunication and broadcasting (the antenna atop the tower as a shared facility) and the center of the network in the field of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) that can be used as a data center and disaster recovery data center. Meanwhile, other benefits that can be a means of supporting the function of monitoring the military / police (surveillance camera at the top of the tower), the center of international business class (offices, hotels, multi-purpose hall, life-style center), as a tourist attraction and edutainment (observation deck, Indonesia Discovery, revolving restaurant.), and also open employment during the construction period and operation.

Therefore, the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Fauzi Bowo, support the development of Jakarta Tower resumes. The development of this tower was stopped for 10 years because the financial crisis hit in 1998. As is known, to the front of Jakarta Tower more functions as telecommunications and broadcasting tower by using the BTS and fiber optic. "DKI Pemprov will support the development of Menara Jakarta, especially in all its legal processes," said Fauzi Bowo at the Jakarta Tower in Kemayoran, Jakarta, on Thursday (22 / 1).

With this tower, is expected to reduce the number of towers to be built in Jakarta. For this, go Fauzi, the number of tower-tower BTS already exceeds the capacity of DKI Jakarta. "Course Jakarta Tower will be the main tower for various telecommunications and can be combined with the Jakarta Government plans to make fiber-optic network throughout Jakarta. I think this is ideal. We can scrimp and infrastructure of Jakarta certainly more orderly, "he said.

To support the plan in the concentration network for telecommunication in Jakarta Tower, Fauzi Bowo said, development of fiber optic cable network will be in place. Therefore, in the first quarter year 2009 (January-March), Pemprov DKI to study the initial masterplan and regulation of the optical fiber cable network and the distribution pattern of the tower. So, in future, Pemprov DKI Jakarta has a picture and the needs of the network regulation tower. After the study and masterplan is completed, it will be followed by the governor (pergub) will be issued in mid-2009. So, the execution will be timely and efficient manner.

Meanwhile, Project Director of Menara Jakarta, Roesdiman Soegiarso, confirming the existence of Menara Jakarta to help and support programs to help the overcrowding of BTS towers in the capital. In addition, Menara Jakarta could serve as the central disaster management that is the center of the security of data occur when natural disasters such as earthquake or flood even fire. "Tower this can be used for television broadcasting, and can utilize DKI Pemprov and support programs for organizing BTS towers," said Roesdiman.

Development of the tower swallow funds Rp 3 trillion target this year is finished in 2012. Meanwhile, the development from year 2004 to 2008, the light Roesdiman, the job search of land with a total volume of 830,000 cubic meters, diaphragm-wall job with around 936 meters with a depth of -30 meters, ground-work for the anchor point 1461, and foundry work basement floor work area of 53 hectares.

Simply known, the idea Menara Jakarta started in 1994 by former President of the Republic of Indonesia Soeharto function as a tower of Telecommunications and Multimedia that supports facilities such as shopping malls and other national icons. To realize the idea of belief is given to Prajogo Pangestu, who then invite some of the others to join and the idea is to establish PT Indocitra Grahabawana. In 1995, international design competition held Menara Jakarta. ECADI (East China Architectural Design Institute) out as winners. In fact, ECADI also have been known to experience mendisain tower Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai.

After obtaining the design of the tower that they want, in 1996 PT Telkom, PT Indosat and TVRI join and form a new body, namely PT Menara Jakarta. Then the ceremony of development projects undertaken Menara Jakarta on 12 August 1997 by Mensesneg RI, Moerdiono. In 1998, total employment has stopped due to the monetary crisis. In 2004, established PT Prasada Japa Pamudja and development Menara Jakarta resumes officially opened on 15 April by Mensesneg RI Bambang KESOWO with the then Governor of DKI Jakarta Sutiyoso

Foke Minta Pembangunan Menara Jakarta Dirampungkan

SABTU, 7 FEBRUARI 2009 | 11:38 WIB
JAKARTA, SABTU — Gubernur DKI Jakarta Fauzi Bowo meminta pembangunan Menara Jakarta dikebut, Jumat (6/2).

Beberapa saat lalu, Foke, panggilan Fauzi, sempat mengunjungi proyek Menara Jakarta yang berlokasi di kawasan Kota Baru Bandar Kemayoran, Jakarta Pusat. Dari hasil kunjungannya, Foke mendapati proses pembangunan masih berlangsung. Dengan, telah dipasangnya fondasi menara.

"Menara Jakarta memang akan dilanjutkan, dan sudah ada progres, fondasi untuk menara 558 meter itu ternyata sudah siap," jelas Foke.

Keinginan untuk merealisasikan Menara Jakarta, dijelaskan Foke, mengingat kebutuhan akan menara transmisi sangat penting. Untuk mengurangi kesemrawutan kabel-kabel dan menara-menara telekomunikasi di ibu kota DKI Jakarta.

"Itu bukan menaranya saja, tapi juga harus di-support dengan back-up dari fiber network atau fiber optic network di seluruh Jakarta. Menara-menara yang sekarang menjamur di mana-mana tentu tidak diperlukan lagi bila kita punya fiber optic tadi," tambah Foke.

Pendirian Menara Jakarta menggunakan teknologi fiber optic dimungkinkan hanya menempatkan transmisi yang ditempel di gedung sebagai repeater (perangkat memperpanjang rentang jaringan).

Nantinya, Foke menginginkan media-media elektronik ikut terlibat dalam penggunaan fasilitas dari Menara Jakarta dalam hal penyiaran dan telekomunikasi.

Ide Menara Jakarta lahir dari almarhum mantan Presiden Soeharto. Fungsinya sebagai menara telekomunikasi, multimedia, dan penyiaran. Pekerjaan Menara Jakarta diserahkan kepada PT Menara Jakarta dan sempat terhenti pada tahun 1998, seiring dampak krisis moneter.

Pembangunan selanjutnya kembali dimulai pada 15 April 2004. Diharapkan Menara Jakarta menjadi ikon Indonesia, seperti KL Tower di Malaysia, Oriental Pearl Tower di China, dan CN Tower di Kanada.

From: http://kompas.com/read/xml/2009/02/0...a.dirampungkan

To simply summarize it, the governor of Jakarta, Fauzi Bowo, has examined the construction site of the tower and observed that the foundation of the tower has been finished. He also wanted all electronic media to take part in the facilities offered by the tower.The idea of the Jakarta Tower has been planned since the Soeharto era in 1994..The Jakarta Tower hopes to be an icon for Indonesia just as the KL Tower in Malaysia, Oriental Pearl in Shanghai and CN Tower in Canada

Roesdiman added, “Jakarta Tower will be the tallest Telco and broadcast tower in the world. It will feature shared facility of antenna in the top of the tower to support the telecommunication and broadcasting system.”

It will be the network center for IT technology as it will provide data center and disaster recovery center, as well as surveillance camera for police and military.

In this area, the developer will also build international business center, offices, hotel, lifestyle center, and mixed use building.

What Bill? the House of representative has nothing to do with Jakarta tower. This project is a consortium led by Kemayoran business community and Jakarta provincial administration.

Wow, Jakarta will have her own tall tower.

Is this for real or will be on hold for the next couples of years until the crisis is ended?

They suppose to build a much taller tower, at least 600 m. Adding additional 100 meters will cost a lot, but it is worth, I guess.

Cheers!

Nope, that bethany church dropped its plan long time ago, now its being taken over by the Kemayoran Business community and Jakarta's government.

The main purpose is to merge all BTS communication system into one tall tower and also to add leisure, shopping centre, biz complex into one structure building and tower

This is back to on hold?This news article says the developers of the tower is serious about the project and is still putting the target of 2012 as the finish date:

Translated Version:

Jakarta Tower Teams up with Jones Lang LaSalle

VIVAnews - Developers Menara Jakarta are partnering with world-class property consultant, Jones Lang LaSalle to conduct a feasibility study before the project is sold to consumers.

"Jones Lang will conduct a feasibility study in a few months," said Roesdiman Soegiarso, Director of PT Prasada Japa Pamudja, developers Menara Jakarta, to VIVAnews in Jakarta, Thursday, 13 February 2009. "Because this project does not play, we must work with a consultant that is world class."

Jones Lang is an international property consultant. They have a branch in Jakarta has become a mentor several leading property projects in the country. Jones Lang also play a role in bringing great products to be marketed world class in a number of top-class shopping center in Jakarta.

After studies completed, the developer started selling the project to prospective customers. For, the project's will not simply be a telecommunications tower, but will also be used as office space, shopping centers and hotels.

The study also will be used by developers to explore the loans to banks.
He actually describes a number of banks have been found on board by the developer. However, because situations are crisis, the banks still tend to wait before deciding. "Currently the bank is still wait and see," said Roesdiman.

Project targeted at the complete 2012 this has been running about 8 percent of the total construction

Another news about a Hologram equipped Museum in the Tower:

VIVAnews - Jakarta Tower's tourism potential will be worked to its hardest. As the projected highest tower in the world, the tower will be equipped with modern attractions.

One of which will be developed is a history museum. "An attraction that will be entertaining and educating will be packed in the both audio-visual oriented museum," said Roesdiman Soegiarso, Director of PT Prasada Japa Pamudja, developers Menara Jakarta, when talking with VIVAnews in February 2009.

The Planned Museum which will be labeled as Indonesia Discovery will be designed with hologram technology, similar with the film Star Wars. With this technology, as if visitors actually enter the past. "The Story of Prince Diponegoro will be presented visually. Pangerang Diponegoro can be seen live in front of the eyes riding with his horse," he said.

This museum will occupy one floor in the tower cavity. Developers intend to create an integrated flow with visitors overlooking the city view at a height of 331 meters. "So after enjoying the scenery at the top, visitors can take a look to this museum," he said.

All edutainment attractions will tell about the history, cultural diversity and natural wealth of Indonesia. The attraction will be the means of education and nationalism. "Will we make the attractiveness of domestic and foreign tourism"

Menara Jakarta Gandeng Jones Lang LaSalle
Pengembang Menara Jakarta menggandeng konsultan properti kelas dunia, Jones Lang LaSalle.

VIVAnews - Pengembang Menara Jakarta menggandeng konsultan properti kelas dunia, Jones Lang LaSalle guna melakukan kajian kelayakan proyek ini sebelum dijual kepada konsumen.

"Jones Lang akan melakukan kajian kelayakan dalam beberapa bulan," kata Roesdiman Soegiarso, Direktur PT Prasada Japa Pamudja, pengembang Menara Jakarta, kepada VIVAnews di Jakarta, Kamis, 13 Februari 2009. "Karena proyek ini tidak main-main, kami tentu harus menggandeng konsultan kelas dunia."

Jones Lang adalah konsultan properti internasional. Konsultan yang sudah memiliki cabang di Jakarta ini telah menjadi penasihat beberapa proyek properti terkemuka di negeri ini. Jones Lang juga berperan besar dalam mendatangkan produk berkelas dunia untuk dipasarkan di sejumlah pusat belanja kelas atas di Jakarta.

Setelah kajiannya selesai, pengembang mulai menjajakan proyek ini kepada para calon konsumen. Sebab, proyek menara tertinggi di dunia ini nantinya bukan sekadar akan menampung menara telekomunikasi, tetapi juga akan digunakan sebagai ruang perkantoran, pusat belanja dan hotel.

Kajian itu juga akan digunakan oleh pengembang untuk menjajaki pinjaman ke perbankan. Dari total anggaran sebesar Rp 3 triliun, menurut Roesdiman, tidak cukup dipenuhi dari setoran pemodal dan hasil penjualan atau penyewaan ruangan.

Dia menjelaskan sebenarnya sejumlah bank papan atas sudah ditemui oleh pengembang. Namun, lantaran situasi sedang krisis, maka perbankan masih cenderung menunggu sebelum memutuskan. "Saat ini bank masih wait and see," kata Roesdiman.

Proyek yang ditargetkan tuntas pada 2012 ini sudah berjalan sekitar 8 persen dari total pembangunan.

Switzerland is incredibly rich and you don't see them building supertalls...

Take into consideration FDI, office space demand, height limits, Indonesia's huge economy (member of the G20) and it's strategic position in Asia. Indonesia is not necessarily a 'poor' country, its growth is forecasted to be 6.2% for this year when other developing nations are experiencing negative growth, like Russia. A nation's GDP per capita is not the catalyst for deciding how tall or buildings can be.

Waitt.. the link is not for "Jakarta Tower".. It is for "Signature Tower" that is different project with Jakarta Tower. Jakarta Tower still be a single tower NOT a building that every floor can be occupied..

Anyway, the progress is still unclear.. there is some rumors that says, it will continued by Q3 2012 (after Moslem new year).. but, this is a very old story from the past.. they said it will be build next year (the news from 1997 till 2011) and STILL no progress.. But the "prep" should be the tag.. because they just need to rise the tower.. the ground already full with deep concrete..

In current global architecture with organic design growing everywhere, the design of Jakarta Tower seems to take Indonesia 10-15 years to the past era. What a waste of money should this project go ahead with its original design, it's was what it was, we should move on...

The Canton Tower (http://gztvtower.info/) in Guangzhou at the very least is the minimum standard height-wise and design-wise.

Here read this:

All shares of the project (sorry im 14 what im trying to say is "saham") have agreed to build Jakarta Tower starting on 2011. However, they are trying to search for a new investor, and some other guy gives a due date for searching. The due date is April 2011. So now they're actually already building the tower. And dont say they're lame or what, even the Kompas group has a share. They will build the tower as soon as posibble (they said that), and that is because it is a dream of our great president-Soeharto. It was a project dreamt by Soeharto, but in 1997 we faced economy crisis. In fact, they are really eager to finish this project off, because it would be one of the components that Indonesia has to build to make themselves go into the top 10 countries in 2025

^^ how would building a 558m tower will make Indonesia one of "top 10 countries" by 2025?? and please explain top 10 countries in term of what?? without the tower Indonesia will still become one of top 10 largest economies in the world..

in your bottom is wrong in top 10 tallest.. top 10 in every aspect. This will drastically increase tourism in Indonesia, economy everything. Remember that Jakarta tower will be used for communications tower too. Jakarta tower as I explained is a dream by former president Suharto, so projects like this being delayed shows that Indonesia is full of corruption and etc (well it is :D). The finishing of Jakarta tower (558 m), Signature tower (638 m) and BUMN tower (600 m), and together if the MRT Jakarta will be finished, shows the world that Indonesia is a capable country. If you ask people in the U.S. "What do you think of when I say the word "Indonesia"?" they would probably answer: Jungles everywhere, native people wearing no clothes, etc. Your country used to be like that too, before Petronas Towers was finished. They think it is just a country full of jungles, forests and wild animals. But because of Petronas Towers, whenever we ask a U.S citizen: "What do you think when I say the country Malaysia?" they will most of the time say about Petronas towers. Now, what if I say "Paris" to you. 80% of the time you will picture Eiffel Tower in your mind. Indonesians of course want that kind of things too, it's just shameful that this project has been delayed for more than 15 years
