JAKARTA - The DKI Provincial Government is building the Lenteng Agung Center and Culinary, South Jakarta. This location is a place for the relocation of the Peliharaan Barito Animal Market trader, Kebayoran Baru, which is the place for the construction of the Pusaka Flag Park.

Head of the DKI Jakarta Province Industry, Trade, Cooperatives, Small and Medium Enterprises (PPKUKM), Elisabeth Ratu Rante Allo said, this location can be visited using a number of public transportation services.

Among them are KRL Commuter Line with the aim of Lenteng Agung Station, Transjakarta (4B Manggarai 'UI and D21 Lebak Bulus'UI), and Microtrans 44 (Kamura' Lenteng Agung).

In addition, this area is equipped with art and cultural performance areas, extensive parking lots, toilets, and prayer rooms, as well as environmentally friendly and family-friendly designs, with a good air and sanitation circulation system.

"We want traders not only to have new places, but also to advance to class. With the support of integrated facilities, training and promotions through the Jakpreneur program, we hope they can grow bigger and become part of Jakarta's new face," said Ratu in her statement, Wednesday, October 15.

The Queen claims that traders from Barito will become part of a new ecosystem in Sentra Fauna and Culinary Lenteng Agung, so that ongoing economic activities can continue in a more organized and representative place.

Sentra Fauna and Kuliner Lenteng Agung have 125 stalls with various functions, consisting of 22 culinary kiosks (zone A), amphitheater (zone B), 74 bird stalls and animal feed (zone C and D), as well as 29 additional parsel and culinary stalls (zone E).

We present Lenteng Agung's Central and Culinary as new, cooler, more comfortable business spaces. Here, business actors, including those who have been selling in the Barito area and are specifically registered as members of PPUKM, will get a more decent place and a greater opportunity to develop," explained the Queen.

The DKI Provincial Government has started building the Pusaka Flag Park since Friday, August 8, 2025. The arrangement for the merger of Langsat Park, Ayodya Park, and Leuser Park has resulted in the Barito Market traders being relocated to temporary places.

Meanwhile, the South Jakarta City Government has begun to provide warning letter (SP) 1 to traders of the Barito Bird Market who are not yet willing to be relocated.

Head of the Legal Section of the South Jakarta Administrative City, Dedi Rohedi, said that the provision of SP1 to traders in the JS 25, 26, 30, and 96 blocks was a follow-up to the instructions of the Mayor of East Jakarta in rearranging the area.

"We have given them a long time with the aim of giving them the opportunity to change their mindset. We make sure the government always gives the best to its citizens, including MSME players," said Dedi, Wednesday, October 8.

He explained that the warning letter would be given in stages. SP1 is valid for 7x24 hours, followed by SP2 for 3x24 hours, and SP3 for 1x24 hours.

After all the stages are complete, the South Jakarta City Government will coordinate with related elements to ensure that the process runs in an orderly manner and remains in favor of the community.

"After that, we will continue to coordinate with related elements to continue to provide the best service to the community," he said.
