Meanwhile property observer from the Indonesia Property Watch (IPW), Ali Tranghanda, said the western Jakarta area such as Karawaci, which is developed by the Lippo Group has different market segment than other areas.

The area of Lippo Karawaci is for middle to high class members of the community while the eastern Jakarta area is more for middle to lower class communities being close to industrial estates.

Classy people choose to buy houses or apartment units in Karawaci area rather than in eastern part of Jakarta which is more polluted with industrial waste, Ali said.
