Ridwan Kamil (Ist)

The Third Debate of the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada which took the theme Urban Environment and Climate Change made the candidate for governor number 1 Ridwan Kamil (RK) invite a resident of Cilincing, North Jakarta, Ade.

RK said, Ade, who is 21 years old, already has two children but cannot have proper housing. I was present with Mbak Ade, this is the face of 21-year-old Gen-Z in Cilincing. Mbak Ade has 2 children, is unable to have decent housing, burying his dream of having decent housing in Jakarta. This is the accumulation of spatial injustice, leading to extreme pride," he said in the Third Debate of the 2024 Jakarta Pilkada, Sunday, November 17, 2024.

According to him, the extreme rigidity in DKI Jakarta causes an area that is like a refugee. This is very much different from areas like in the Sudirman-Thamrin area whose image is very modern and clean.

RK-Suswono also promised to provide a budget for house renovations in Jakarta worth IDR 50-100 million per house. In addition to the house renovation budget, RK revealed that vertical housing can be a solution for Gen Z who dreams of owning a house in the middle of the capital city.

vertical housing for Gen Z has a dream of being able to live in Central Jakarta, land above the market, TOD at land stations on roads and in the middle of rivers can also be innovated, "added RK.
