"Of course, we have to collaborate on the basic design. If earlier there were two winners at the Vice Presidential Palace, so we will collaborate later, we will take which elements from Huma Betang Umai, which ones from the People's Palace", said Director General of Human Settlements, Ministry of PUPR Diana Kusumastuti in Jakarta, Monday, July 18.
