JAKARTA - City planning observer at Trisakti University, Nirwono Joga, assessed that the Sarinah Building could be an option for young people to hold the "Citayam Fashion Week" fashion show.

According to Nirwono, the newly renovated Sarinah could be a place to hold "Citayam Fashion Week". The reason is that the building is one of the places in Jakarta that is intended as a creative space for young people.

"From the start, Sarinah offered the place as a creative center for the younger generation," said Nirwono, Friday, July 22, quoted from Antara.

Furthermore, Nirwono also assessed that the phenomenon of "Citayam Fashion Week" in Dukuh Atas or known as a gathering area for teenagers from Sudirman, Citayam, Bojong Gede, and Depok (SCBD) was due to the lack of open space that could accommodate the aspirations of young people.

Therefore, according to him, this phenomenon should be able to encourage city and district governments in the Greater Jakarta area, including Citayam, Bojong Gede, and Depok, to provide public spaces or city parks that are attractive, contemporary, free, strategic, and open. for various youth activities.

He added that these young people will not be prevented by security officers as long as they do not cause vandalism in public spaces.

Then related to the continuity of "Citayam Fashion Week", according to Nirwono, this fashion show will not last long if it is not managed properly because these activities occur during school holidays.

"This means that when schools start to re-enter, new teachings begin, it is not necessarily the case that 'Citayam Fashion Week' will take place. If it is not managed properly, this activity will not continue," he said.

DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan emphasized that the Citayam Fashion Show, which is often held in the afternoon and into the evening at the zebra cross in the Dukuh Atas area, Sudirman, Central Jakarta, is not prohibited.

This contradicts the statement from the Central Jakarta City Government which stated that the "SCBD" youth catwalk (Sudirman, Citayam, Bojonggede, Depok) in the crossing area was prohibited.

"There is a decree, no? As long as there is no letter, then there is no ban," said Anies at DKI Jakarta City Hall, Friday, July 22.

Anies reiterated that there is no official regulation that prohibits activities such as fashion shows at the zebra cross.

"If there is a decree, it means it is a stipulation. If there is no decree, then it is not a provision. The country is regulated through regulations. As long as there are no regulations, there are no prohibitions," he said.
