"I'm just saying, when you came here, actually Citayam Fashion Week also helped you. I'm just afraid that there will be a gap with the others. What if there is a result from here because it used my money first, I said we will build Citayam, " said Baim Wong.

"I was a bit surprised when this news came out, even though they haven't asked me with their respective opinions. I'm quite sad inside, even though we didn't intend to go there, take people's rights. We wanted to donate this to Citayam, but in the end it ended up So like this, I also feel like it turned out to be like this, huh," he admitted.
