[Alvin]

[Mahaputra]

which one is balai kartini?? where's it located? i cant remember..

[ryanr]

It is located near Jl. Kuningan on Gatot Subroto. (right in front of the toll road)

I was quite surprized myself. I only found out a few days ago when i drove past it. Pity they are demolishing it.

[Alvin]

it'll be interesting to see what replaces it....

[indistad]

Will we as a nation ever value buildings in themselves than as something to make money out of?

Pity!

[Alvin]

yeah that's what indos lack...appreciation for the past and heritage
I hope they're not undermining the historic value of HI

[David-80]

do you think HI will get demolish too?

cheers

[Alvin]

no, but they're renovating it...they're demolishing one 'wing' of HI (and replace it with a shopping center), but luckily not the historic part.

[JAG2]

to be honest with you , 'they may demolished HI imo , and built a bigger and modern hotel / apartment instead. HI was built with Soviet help at the 60's isn't it?

[David-80]

HI built by the soviet? thats new to me....but that would be disaster for the sake of heritage and historical if they are going to demolish it!

cheers

Usualy only when educated people will have appreciation to past and heritage. Another Indonesia problem is.. education quality is low. Even many teachers is not educated enuf.

Malaysia used to import teachers from Indonesia. Now Indonesian is studying in Malaysia. Sad.. sad..
