Anita immediately contacted South Grogol subdistrict head Asep Subahan
Asep came down from his office on the second floor to the lobby
armed with a letter of authority from Joko
Anita met with Asep to gather information on her client\'s citizenship data and status
Joko had come to the subdistrict office to register his e-ID data
Asep immediately directed Joko and his lawyer into the citizenship services room
An e-ID card was issued in the name of Joko Soegiarto Tjandra
Nobody knew (that Joko Tjandra was a fugitive)
Asep and his subordinates at the South Grogol Subdistrict Office did not realize that the man they had just served was a fugitive who was pursued by the Attorney General\'s Office
"Nobody knew (that Joko Tjandra was a fugitive)
Because there was no alert in our system," Asep said on Friday (3/7/2020) in Jakarta
Asep only became aware of Joko’s legal status from the media over the last few days
"The Home Ministry and the Jakarta Police also asked about the arrival of that [particular] individual," he said

The citizenship service for processing Joko Tjandra\'s e-ID card at the South Grogol office
was not an indication of special treatment
The same service was provided for other people
they said that processing the e-ID card at the South Grogol Subdistrict Office usually took a month
Joko and his lawyer then headed to the South Jakarta District Court on Jl
It is around 10 kilometers from the South Grogol Subdistrict Office to the South Jakarta District Court
which took 30-40 minutes to cover in a private vehicle
In the yard of the South Jakarta Subdistrict Court
the pair met another member of the legal team
The three then headed inside to the South Jakarta District Court’s One-Stop Integrated Service (PTSP)
carrying a file of documents they needed to file a petition for case review (PK) on the Bank Bali cession case

the file was handed to the clerk for issuing a petition letter
The South Jakarta District Court served Joko like any ordinary citizen without anyone being aware of his status as a fugitive
in this case perhaps whether or not they understood correctly
it is not necessarily for them to always remember," Suharno said

was not seen at the court on Thursday (2/7)
He was on leave and only returned to work on Monday (6/7/2020)

The Attorney General\'s Office is continuing to search for him
Joko Tjandra’s visits to the South Grogol Subdistrict Office and the South Jakarta District Court were also not captured on surveillance (CCTV) cameras
The South Jakarta District Court claimed that the footage from that day had been deleted because the court’s CCTV server only stored recordings for a week
the court became aware of Joko’s visit only two weeks after 8 June
The South Grogol Subdistrict Office has four CCTV cameras
but none of them recorded Joko\'s arrival because all four cameras had been broken for about three months
"This is because the maintenance budget (for the CCTV cameras) was diverted to Covid-19 mitigation," said Asep
The reappearance of Joko Tjandra came into the media spotlight because he had been a fugitive of the state for 11 years
the day before the Supreme Court sentenced him to two years in prison and a Rp 15 million fine
This is because the maintenance budget (for the CCTV cameras) was diverted to Covid-19 mitigation
The Attorney General\'s Office and the Immigration Directorate General of the Law and Human Rights Ministry coordinated in 2009 and discovered that Joko had fled to Port Moresby
He departed on a chartered Challenger 604 aircraft with tail number N720US on the evening of Wednesday
from Halim Perdanakusuma Airport in East Jakarta

Andi changed his statement when it was confirmed on Saturday (4/7/2020) that Joko had obtained his e-ID card on 8 June
Andi then acknowledged that the legal team had also accompanied Joko to apply for the e-ID card
which was necessary to file the petition at the court
Andi said that the legal team examined Joko’s citizenship data to ascertain his status as an Indonesian national
because the team was initially in doubt as to whether their client was a citizen of Indonesia or Papua New Guinea

Beware of Heavy Rain During the Month of Ramadan
00:0000:0010101.00xBy Pradipta Pandu Mustika
03 Mar 2025 19:56 WIB · English
KOMPAS - Several regions in Indonesia are expected to continue experiencing rain with light to heavy intensity over the next week
Communities in disaster-prone areas are advised to anticipate the impacts of heavy rain during the holy month of Ramadan
BMKG recorded occurrences of extremely heavy rainfall in several regions
The rainfall intensity reached more than 100 millimeters per day (mm/day)
The extremely heavy rainfall occurred in the City of Cirebon
West Java (123 mm/day); several areas in Riau (116 mm/day); Bogor Regency
Central Papua (100 mm/day); Padang Pariaman Regency
West Sumatra (100 mm/day); and Manggarai Regency
"This condition still has the potential to occur in several regions
particularly in the western part of Indonesia and the Papua Islands
triggered by various atmospheric disturbances," said Guswanto on Monday (3/3/2025)
Guswanto explained that atmospheric waves such as Equatorial Rossby
and Kelvin are predicted to remain active in the next week
The presence of cyclonic circulation and strong local instability has the potential to enhance the development of rain clouds
leading to the likelihood of persistent high-intensity rainfall
This is expected to cause several regions to continue experiencing heavy to very heavy rainfall
Residents in vulnerable areas are urged to evacuate immediately if water levels rise and to prepare an emergency preparedness bag containing important documents
Areas that are predicted to still experience heavy rain include Aceh
Guswanto emphasized that during the current month of Ramadan
Indonesia is entering the transitional season (March
BMKG appealed to residents to remain vigilant against the potential for extreme weather that can cause potential hydrometeorological disasters
BMKG also appealed to the public to be more aware of the environment and potential disasters in the environment where they live so that they can reduce the impacts caused by hydrometeorological disasters that can occur at any time
"BMKG has always coordinated pentahelically with the government
mass media and the business world regarding hydrometeorological disasters
Coordination is also carried out through weather information updates
potential for extreme weather and hydrometeorological disasters in disaster areas," said Guswanto
Awareness of the potential for hydrometeorological disasters was also conveyed by the Head of the Data
and Disaster Communication Center of the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB)
BNPB noted that several regions are now facing hydrometeorological disasters due to high rainfall
"BNPB urges the public to remain vigilant against the potential for further flooding and extreme weather
Residents in vulnerable areas are asked to evacuate immediately if the water level increases and prepare disaster preparedness bags containing important documents
The government's flagship tax amnesty program broke the world record for the amount of additional tax revenue it collected late on Wednesday (28/09)
reflecting the public's confidence and trust on tax and economic reforms under President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo's administration
Taxpayers signed up to the program have already declared Rp 2,963 trillion ($229 billion) of unreported assets since June, 74 percent of the government's Rp 4,000 trillion target, boosted by streams of rags and riches seeking to make their tax record straight in the past weeks
The government has also received Rp 64.9 trillion from amnesty penalty
nearly 40 percent of its target of Rp 165 trillion
That makes Indonesia's tax amnesty program the most successful one so far in the world
Yustinus Prastowo from local policy think-tank Center for Indonesia Taxation Analysis
especially because we've been quite bad at managing our taxes before this," Prastowo told the Jakarta Globe
Italy's 2009 tax amnesty program collected the equal of around Rp 1,179 trillion and pulled in Rp 59 trillion in additional tax revenue
Chile's tax amnesty program last year pulled in Rp 263 trillion and collected Rp 19.7 trillion in additional tax revenue
the managing partner at tax consultancy firm Danny Darussalam Tax Center
said the sheer enthusiasm among taxpayers participating in the amnesty program reflected public confidence in the tax office and the government
"That's an intangible asset that needs to be carefully managed by the government," he said
"This shows that we have created a healthy momentum for the rest of the program and that the public trusts us," President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo said after making an impromptu visit to a tax office in Grogol
One thing that the government still wants to rectify from the program is the fact that participants had only repatriated Rp 142.5 trillion in offshore assets
or only 14 percent of the government's target of Rp 1,000 trillion
Some of them had chosen to keep their overseas properties unreported since they intend to keep them
We'll see what happens by March 31 next year
when the program is supposed to finish," Ken Dwijugiasteadi
restricting himself to a modest statement on the progress of the program so far
Although it has been projected since the early 2013
yet the widening plan on Jalan Simprug Golf 2 RW 08 Grogol Selatan is still constrained with land acquisition
"We had done socialization with owners from 8 plots of land
but there has been no solution yet," said South Jakarta Mayor
another constraint is the tracking of land ownership from RT 08
10/RW 08 Grogol Selatan which will be affected by such project
"I'm still finding out the information where the PT Berdikri would transform the land into public and social facilities
But now it already joined with PT Agung Podomoro," he expressed
the South Jakarta Administration has not received a land ownership map from the company
"We have yet to get the map for the land that has been acquired by PT Berdikri
Don't let we do land acquirement twice," he exclaimed
Endang Efendi disclosed about 90 percent of citizens at 3 RTs have no land ownership documents
"While the land owners with land certificate have 35 plots," he told
It was also admitted by Chairman of RW 08 Grogol Selatan
most of the land in 3 RTs already been acquired by PT Berdikri in 1970
"But the land is occupied by the newcomers due to it does not issued directly," he explained
"Indeed the site is quite dense," he stated
the widening plan on Jalan Simprug Golf 2 is aimed to parse traffic congestion which previously relied through Jalan Pakubuwono
it is hoped the vehicles from Jalan Teuku Nyak Arif towards Senayan City or vice versa can be accommodated
the wide of Jalan Simprug Golf 2 is only about 3-5 meters with a length of about 800 meters and can only be passed alternately
No one was injured after fire gutted a Volkswagen Caravelle car B 132 TYZ on Cawang Interchange toll road
precisely in KM 0.200 Cawang towards Grogol
traffic congestion as long as 5 kilometers cannot be avoided
The car driven by Edy (42) came from Karawang
He admitted he smelled burning coming from the car
But he continues his journey with an average vehicle speed of 60-70 kilometers per hour
"Suddenly flames came out under the middle seat
I was surprised and immediately stop my car
The fire quickly enlarged thus I could not extinguish it," he admitted
the fire was successfully extinguished by PT Jasa Marga officers using a tank unit
five police officers of City Police PJR had to close traffic from Cawang-Grogol
Indonesia has a month left to turn things around after experiencing a 5.32 percent contraction in its economy in the second quarter due to the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic
President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo told all 34 governors in a video-teleconference on Tuesday
If the third quarter results in a contraction cycle
our economy managed to grow by 2.97 percent
while many other countries saw a negative figure
we were at minus 5.32 percent in the second quarter,” the president said from the Bogor Palace in West Java
“We still have a chance in September -- if we remain at the negative territory
it means we enter a recession,” he said
He urged governors to speed up spending and to order district heads and mayors in their respective region to do the same
noting that less than a half of their budgets have been spent
the national average of provincial government spending reached only 44 percent
while cities and district have used only 48.8 percent of their budget,” Jokowi said.
Only three provinces have managed to attain positive growth during the second quarter of the year
West Papua (0.53 percent) and Central Sulawesi (0.06 percent)
three provinces have suffered the biggest contraction
whose economy depends largely on the tourism sector
was the hardest hit by the economic impact of the pandemic with a contraction of 10.98 percent
Jakarta saw a negative 8.82 percent and Yogyakarta reported a contraction of 6.74 percent
The president also called on governors to do more in flattening the curve of new Covid-19 caseloads
“For provinces where the caseloads remain high
I ask their governors to work harder and cooperate with the task force in order to slow down the caseloads,” Jokowi said
adding that the central government is ready to help.
Indonesia is able to keep the Covid-19 outbreak under control
with a rapidly growing number of recoveries
The recovery rate in the Indonesian outbreak was a mere 15 percent in April but by the end of August the number of cured or discharged Covid-19 patients has accounted for 72.1 percent of the total cases
higher than the global average of 69 percent

is one of those nannies who wouldn't budge to come home when her parents begged her to
British nannies such as Catrin Vaughan working for Russian oligarchs live a jet-set lifestyle(Image: Catrin Vaughan)Yet
even with Ukraine under siege and her mega-rich bosses slapped with sanctions
She gave her parents' plea the cold shoulder
"I've got a lovely family. A billionaire boss and they're throwing money at me.", reports the Express
Russia's flash new billionaires have been snapping up British nannies to ensure their children speak the Queen’s English and possess high-society manners
The combination of that strong demand and their bottomless bank accounts has meant salaries for roles looking after oligarch offspring run to a staggering £180,000 per year – far outstripping the average £32,000 they can earn back home
medical bills and travel for their employee
who adopts a well-spoken English accent with the families
banks a huge sum every month – not that she will admit how much it is
Firmin was terrified when the Ukraine war escalated(Image: Firmin Shepherd)War and sanctions have made it harder for Brits to be paid by oligarchs but the Express has discovered there are still many who
are ensuring the Russian elite have children brought up with British manners
Firmin Shepherd, 43, fell into work as an English governor for Russia’s ultra-rich after taking on private tuition work during a spell studying at university in St Petersburg
Hailing from Canterbury and with an archetypal Home Counties accent
he found he could earn huge sums working for oligarchs
One was so stuck up that they only saw “black caviar
champagne and private jets,” while the other valued everything “down to a single ice cream”
he was terrified when the war in Ukraine escalated
which I swear appeared at the point when people started bandying about the ‘nuclear’ word,” he says
Russian President Vladimir Putin (L) hands flowers to Alina Kabayeva(Image: AFP via Getty Images)“[But] I was working for the kind of people who could easily be going to church with the president
You can't imagine they would allow themselves to be in a position where they could be at any risk from drone strikes or any other kind of military threat.”
Firmin says he regularly sees large air defences positioned strategically around Moscow and hears the “extremely loud” noises they make shooting down drones
“One of them actually fell not far from my old apartment,” he says
“That didn't do anything to calm my nerves.”
His mother has visited numerous times and plans to come to see him in Moscow this year – entry to the country is via Turkey or Dubai these days
But other family members view his life in Russia rather differently
“I have a cousin who loves to put me on the spot and say to my face that I sound like a Russian apologist,” he adds
When the billionaires decide they want their own Mary Poppins
they tend to turn to Moscovite Valentin Grogol
who has run the English Nanny agency since 2009

Although stories about enormous reptiles attacking (and, in two incidents in the last year, eating) people in Indonesia seem to be on the rise recently
the capital city of Jakarta is fortunately not the traditional habitat of the country’s most fearsome fauna
But a rare sighting of several large crocodile in one of the metropolis’ main waterways has authorities on high alert to catch the beasts before they can cause any humans harm
A crocodile was first spotted by shocked residents living near Jakarta’s Grogol river yesterday morning
Subsequent eyewitness accounts have led authorities to believe their are actually three crocodiles living in the river
officers from Jakarta’s Fire and Rescue Agency (PKP)
and Natural Resources Conservation Center (BKSDA) went down to the river in an attempt to capture them
https://www.facebook.com/cepi.cepi.923/posts/2584857118406210
Officers set off from the river location where the reptile was first spotted
Their plan was to capture the crocs in a net using chicken meat as bait
But unfortunately their efforts were impeded by the many onlookers around the Grogol Bridge
“The real obstacle was the local people, yesterday a crocodile almost ate the bait but suddenly they (the locals) were throwing stones, so the crocodile became stressed out and afraid,” said BKSDA Jakarta chief Bambang Yudi today as quoted by Detik
With yesterday’s efforts not resulting in any croc captures
Bambang said officers would be hitting the river again today in hopes of finding the reptiles
for their safety and the safety of citizens residing near the Grogol

a fireman at the West Jakarta Fire Department
said the tragedy occurred when Maulana and his friends were swimming in the pool
“I don’t know how, but the victim was suddenly sucked into the pool’s drainage system. But we only received the call early on Monday morning at around 2am,” Firman told Vivanews.
The West Jakarta Fire Department immediately went to the swimming pool to rescue the victim
All of the pool’s water was drained to ease access into the drainage system
“At around 7:30am the victim was excavated but already dead,” Firman said
Maulana’s death seems to have been caused by negligence in the part of the Grogol Sports Center as they failed to cover up the large drainage hole in the swimming pool
They also took hours to finally call authorities to rescue Maulana
Maulana could have been saved had an unnamed employee at the sports center rescued him
Local woman Karsini said Maulana’s three friends immediately ran up to the employee right after Maulana was sucked into the drain
But the employee did not realize the severity of the situation
“They were shouting, ‘please, sir, our friend went into the pipes.’ And then the employee just said, ‘leave him be, he’ll come out on his own,’” Karsini said.
