3177266	无图 <p> High level of Government Land Sales (GLS) private housing supply sustained in second half 2025 (2H2025) <p>Jun 13, 2025 </p> </p><p> The Government is sustaining a high and steady level of private housing supply for the 2H2025 GLS Programme. 4,725 private residential units will be launched via the 2H2025 Confirmed List, bringing the total Confirmed List supply for 2025 to close to 10,000 units. The 2H2025 Confirmed List includes 990 Executive Condominium (EC) units, bringing total EC supply for 2025 to about 2,000 units, the highest in a single year since 2014.The good spread of sites across the island will provide a variety of housing options to cater to different needs and preferences.The Government will continue to closely monitor economic and property market conditions, and when necessary, we are ready to increase both public and private housing supply.<p>1. The Government has announced the GLS Programme for the second half of 2025 (2H2025). Comprising 10 Confirmed List sites and 12 Reserve List sites, the Programme can yield about 9,200 private residential units, 178,315 sqm gross floor area (GFA) of commercial space, and 880 hotel rooms (see Appendix 1 and Appendix 2).</p><p>2.The Confirmed List, which comprises 10 private residential sites, can yield 4,725 private residential units, including 990 EC units from two EC sites, and 4,515 sqm GFA of commercial space. </p><p>3. The Reserve List includes six private residential sites, one commercial site, three White sites and two hotel sites, which can potentially yield an additional 4,475 private residential units, 173,800 sqm GFA of commercial space, and 880 hotel rooms.</p><p>Sustained supply of private housing</p><p>4. With the progressive ramp-up of private housing supply via the GLS Programme over the last three years, property price momentum in the private residential market has moderated<sup>1</sup>. To keep the property market stable and sustainable, the Government will maintain a steady supply injection of private residential units. In 2H2025, 4,725 units – including 990 EC units – will be released under the Confirmed List to meet ongoing housing demand and help bolster the inventory of EC units available for sale<sup>2</sup>. The supply on the Reserve List will also be increased to 4,475 units to allow developers to initiate for development if they assess that there is sufficient demand.</p><p>5. With the supply injection from the Confirmed List in 2H2025, the total private housing supply to be launched in 2025 will be about 9,800 units. This will bring the total supply of private residential (including EC) units<sup>3</sup> in the overall pipeline of private residential units to about 56,700 units. This robust pipeline of private residential units will help to meet the medium-term housing needs of Singapore’s population. The supply consists of a good spread of sites across various geographical locations, supporting the development of both conventional private residential units and long-stay Serviced Apartments, to cater to both owner-occupation and rental housing demand.</p><p>Supply of office space</p><p>6. The White sites for mixed-use developments at Jurong Lake District and Woodlands Avenue 2, as well as the short-term lease commercial site at Punggol Walk, will be carried over from the 1H2025 Reserve List to the 2H2025 Reserve List. These three sites will provide developers opportunities to initiate the development of more office and retail spaces if they assess that there is sufficient market demand.</p><p>Supply of hotel rooms</p><p>7. The 2H2025 Reserve List includes a new hotel site at Telok Ayer Street, planned for mixed use development comprising hotel rooms, long-stay Serviced Apartments, and retail spaces to foster a vibrant neighbourhood along Telok Ayer Street and enliven the Central Business District. Together with the existing hotel site at River Valley Road carried over from the 1H2025 Reserve List, the two sites will allow developers to increase the supply of hotel rooms based on market demand.</p><p>8. The Government will continue to closely monitor economic and property market conditions, and adjust the GLS Programme as necessary to meet Singapore’s housing, commercial and hospitality needs.</p><p><sup>1</sup>Based on the Property Price Index, overall private residential prices increased at a slower pace by 3.9% in 2024, compared to the increases of 8.6% in 2022 and 6.8% in 2023. In 1Q2025, overall private residential prices rose modestly by 0.8%, easing from the 2.3% increase in 4Q2024. </p><p><sup>2</sup>As of end-April 2025, there were about 2,900 EC units available for sale, including units from GLS sites launched in 1H2025 that have yet to be awarded. With the 990 EC units from the 2H2025 Confirmed List, there will be a total of close to 3,900 EC units in the supply pipeline available for sale in the near term.</p><p><sup>3</sup>This comprises about 40,700 units with planning approval and about 16,000 units from GLS sites and awarded en-bloc sites that have not been granted planning approval yet.</p><p>Appendix 1</p><p>------------</p><p>PROPOSED RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL AND HOTEL SITES FOR 2H2025 GLS PROGRAMME</p>S/N LocationSite Area (ha)Proposed GPREstimated No. of Residential Units <sup>(1)</sup>Estimated No. of Hotel RoomsEstimated Commercial Space (m<sup>2</sup>)Estimated Launch DateSales AgentConfirmed ListResidential Sites1Bukit Timah Road <sup>(2)</sup>0.594.934000Aug 2025URA2Bedok Rise <sup>(2)</sup>2.031.638000Sep 2025URA3Woodlands Drive 17 (EC) <sup>(2)(3)</sup>2.702.156000Oct 2025HDB4Dairy Farm Walk <sup>(2)</sup>3.061.450000Nov 2025URA5Dover Road (2)(4)1.354.262503,000Nov2025URA6Tanjong Rhu Road <sup>(2)(3)</sup>1.233.752500Nov 2025URA7Dunearn Road <sup>(2)(5)</sup>1.911.633501,400Dec 2025URA8Kallang Avenue <sup>(2)(6)</sup>1.213.54500115Dec2025URA9Lentor Central <sup>(2)</sup>1.653.058000Dec 2025URA10Miltonia Close (EC) <sup>(2)</sup>1.542.843000Dec 2025HDBTotal (Confirmed List)4,72504,515S/N Location Site Area (ha) Proposed GPREstimated No. of Residential Units <sup>(1)</sup>Estimated No. of Hotel RoomsEstimated Commercial Space (m<sup>2</sup>)Estimated Available Date <sup>(18)</sup>Sales AgentReserve ListResidential Sites1Holland Plain <sup>(7)</sup>1.571.828000AvailableURA2Marina Gardens Lane <sup>(8)</sup>0.605.63900150AvailableURA3Media Circle <sup>(9)</sup>0.574.25200400AvailableURA4Media Circle (Parcel B) <sup>(10)</sup>1.00</p>4.35000400AvailableURA5River Valley Green (Parcel C)1.153.547000AvailableURA6Cross Street <sup>(2)(11)</sup>0.236.33000750Sep 2025URACommercial Sites7Punggol Walk <sup>(12)</sup>1.001.40013,350AvailableURAWhite Sites8Marina Gardens Crescent <sup>(13)</sup>1.734.277506,000AvailableURA9Jurong Lake District <sup>(14)</sup>6.47-600070,000AvailableURA10Woodlands Avenue 2 <sup>(15)</sup>2.754.2440078,000AvailableURAHotel Sites11River Valley Road <sup>(16)</sup>1.022.805302,000AvailableURA12Telok Ayer Street <sup>(2)(17)</sup>0.427.02003502,750Dec 2025URATotal (Reserve List)4,475880173,800Total (Confirmed List and Reserve List)9,200880178,315<p>(1) The estimated number of dwelling units (DU) for Executive Condominium and private residential sites take into account the average unit sizes of recent comparable developments and prevailing Development Control guidelines.</p><p>(2) New sites introduced in 2H2025.</p><p>(3) Sites are imposed with a minimum 500 sqm GFA for childcare centre.</p><p>(4) Site is imposed with a retail cap of 3,000 sqm GFA and a minimum 550 sqm GFA for childcare centre.</p><p>(5) Site is imposed with a retail cap of 1,400 sqm GFA and a minimum 600 sqm GFA for childcare centre.</p><p>(6) Site is imposed with a retail cap of 117 sqm GFA and a minimum 500 sqm GFA for childcare centre.</p><p>(7) Site is imposed with DU cap of 282 residential units.</p><p>(8) Site is imposed with a retail cap of 150 sqm GFA.</p><p>(9) Site is for long-stay Serviced Apartments use only and imposed with a retail cap of 400 sqm GFA.</p><p>(10) Site is imposed with a retail cap of 400 sqm GFA.</p><p>(11) Site is for long-stay Serviced Apartments use only and imposed with a retail cap of 750 sqm GFA.</p><p>(12) Site is imposed with a minimum office quantum of 8,400 sqm GFA and a minimum 650 sqm GFA for childcare centre.</p><p>(13) Site is imposed with a retail cap of 6,000 sqm GFA and a minimum 500 sqm GFA for childcare centre.</p><p>(14) This is a Master Developer site with a total GFA of 365,000 sqm.

3177265	无图 <p> Release of FY2024 Town Council Management Report (TCMR) – Operational Report <p>Jun 13, 2025 </p> </p><p> <p>The Ministry of National Development (MND) has released the FY2024 TCMR Operational Report on the performance of the 17 pre-General Election (GE) 2025 Town Councils (TCs) from April 2024 to March 2025. </p><p>Under the TCMR Operational Report, TCs are assessed across four operational indicators (Estate Cleanliness, Estate Maintenance, Lift Performance and Service & Conservancy Charges (S&CC) Arrears Management), using three colour bands - Green, Amber and Red. </p><p>Summary of FY2024 TCMR Results</p><p>All the pre-GE2025 TCs have scored “Green” for all four indicators in the FY2024 report, similar to the FY2023 TCMR. The results are summarised below. See Annex A for detailed breakdown of results. Details of the TCMR framework and banding can be found here.</p>TCMR IndicatorsFY2024 Results<p>Estate Cleanliness</p><p>Assesses the state of town cleanliness based on estate inspection observations made by HDB, such as the presence of stain, litter, bulky refuse and graffiti.</p>All pre-GE2025 TCs scored “Green”<p>Estate Maintenance</p><p>Assesses the state of town maintenance based on estate inspection observations made by HDB, such as obstructions in common areas, unauthorised fixtures and damaged pipes/walls.</p>All pre-GE2025 TCs scored “Green”<p>Lift Performance</p><p>Assesses the performance of lifts based on the frequency of faults affecting lift operations measured by the Tele-Monitoring System (TMS) and duration of downtime as a result of such faults.</p>All pre-GE2025 TCs scored “Green”<p>S&CC Arrears Management</p><p>Assesses the effectiveness of TCs’ S&CC arrears management based on the percentage of S&CC accounts and amount in arrears.</p>All pre-GE2025 TCs scored “Green”<p>Observations</p><p>Some observations for the indicators are as follows:</p><p>a. Estate Cleanliness. All pre-GE2025 TCs were banded “Green” as they all had less than four counts of cleanliness observations per block on average.</p><p>b. Estate Maintenance. All pre-GE2025 TCs were banded “Green” as they all had less than four counts of maintenance observations per block on average.</p><p>c. Lift Performance. All pre-GE2025 TCs were banded “Green” as they all had less than two lift faults per 10 lifts each month, and less than one hour of downtime per lift each month.</p><p>d. S&CC Arrears Management. All pre-GE2025 TCs were banded “Green” as they had less than 40 per cent of the monthly collectible S&CC for the town overdue and less than four in 100 households that owed arrears for three months or more. </p><p>Members of the public can refer to the FY2024 TCMR Operational Report here.</p><p>The Corporate Governance performance of the pre-GE2025 TCs from April 2024 to March 2025 will be published in the FY2024 TCMR Governance Report, that will be released in December 2025 after MND has received and reviewed the TCs’ audited financial statements and their auditor’s reports.</p><p>FY2025 TCMR Assessment</p><p>As the post-GE2025 TCs were formed on 30 May 2025 following the GE2025, the newly-formed and reconstituted TCs will require a transition period to stabilise their operations after the handover of Towns. Therefore, MND will not publish the TCMR Operational and Governance Reports for FY2025 (April 2025 to March 2026). During this period, MND will continue to monitor the performance of the TCs and share our feedback with the TCs to better support their transition. We will resume publication of the TCMR Reports from FY2026 (April 2026 to March 2027). This is consistent with the approach taken after GE2020. </p><p>Issued by: Ministry of National Development</p><p>Date: 13 June 2025</p><p>Annex A: Pre-GE2025 Town Councils’ Performance for the FY2024 TCMR Operational Report</p> </p> Release of FY2024 Town Council Management Report (TCMR) – Operational Report	查看 3909	新加坡国家发展部	2025-06-13 00:00:00 2025-06-14 12:40:12	word

Esta acción genera múltiples violaciones al Derecho Internacional en materia de Derechos Humanos.</p><p>En las sentencias de la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos (Corte IDH) en los casos García Rodríguez y Tzompaxtle Tecpile contra el Gobierno y autoridades de México, se señala que la prisión preventiva oficiosa es contraria al derecho a la libertad personal, al derecho a ser oído, a la presunción de inocencia, a la independencia judicial y a la igualdad ante la ley, contenidos en los artículos 7.1, 7.3, 7.5, 8.1, 8.2 y 24 de la Convención Americana sobre Derechos Humanos de la que México es parte.</p><p>También el Grupo de Trabajo de Naciones Unidas sobre la Detención Arbitraria ha recomendado a México en numerosas resoluciones relativas a casos individuales (por ejemplo opiniones 14/2019, 64/2019, 24/2020, 45/2020, 14/2021, 35/2021, 67/2021, 70/2022, 32/2023) y después de su visita a México en 2023, que elimine de la Constitución y la práctica la figura de la prisión preventiva oficiosa o automática por ser contraria a las obligaciones derivadas de los artículos 9 y 14 del Pacto Internacional de Derechos Civiles y Políticos y los artículos 9, 10 y 11 de la Declaración Universal de los Derechos Humanos.</p><p>Una figura penal que no se justifica</p><p>Datos sobre la aplicación de la prisión preventiva oficiosa basada en fuentes públicas y solicitudes de información, demuestran que al menos en 12 entidades federativas (Aguascalientes, Campeche, Coahuila, Colima, Durango, Hidalgo, Querétaro, Quintana Roo, San Luis Potosí, Sonora, Tamaulipas y Yucatán) utilizan más la prisión preventiva justificada, que la oficiosa. En dichas entidades no se observa ningún impacto negativo producto de esta buena práctica.</p><p>Al contrario, la prisión preventiva oficiosa genera incentivos perversos para que la vinculación a proceso de los delitos contemplados en el artículo 19 de la Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos, transforme la etapa inicial en un juicio exprés.</p><p>Derivado de la existencia de este concepto, hay etapas del proceso penal que deberían durar unos minutos, alargando innecesariamente las primeras audiencias y violando derechos procesales.</p><p>Así, es completamente injustificado el argumento del actual Gobierno de que la eliminación de la prisión preventiva oficiosa pone en riesgo la seguridad del país al dejar libres a “presuntos criminales”. Tampoco se justifica el llamamiento del Poder Ejecutivo hacia la SJCN a no resolver respecto a eliminar esta figura de la normatividad mexicana.

3177263	有图 <p>B<p>rian Wilson, the Beach Boys co-founder who masterminded the group"s wild popularity and soundtracked the California dream, has died, his family announced Wednesday. He was 82.</p><p>The statement on Instagram did not give a cause. Wilson was placed under a legal conservatorship last year due to a "major neurocognitive disorder."</p><p>"We are at a loss for words right now," said his family. "We realize that we are sharing our grief with the world."</p><p>The pop visionary crafted hits whose success rivaled The Beatles throughout the 1960s, a seemingly inexhaustible string of feel-good tracks including "Surfin" USA," "I Get Around," "Fun, Fun, Fun" and "Surfer Girl" that made the Beach Boys into America"s biggest selling band.</p><p>Wilson didn"t surf, but his prodigious pen and genius ear allowed him to fashion the boundary-pushing soundscape of beachside paradise.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>His lush productions were revered among his peers, with even Bob Dylan once telling Newsweek: "That ear -- I mean, Jesus, he"s got to will that to the Smithsonian!"</p><p>Dylan also paid tribute to Wilson on Wednesday, posting on X "about all the years I"ve been listening to him and admiring his genius. Rest in peace dear Brian."</p><p>After five years of extraordinary songwriting, in which he produced 200 odes to sun, surfing and suntanned girls, Wilson sank into a deep, drug-fueled depression for decades.</p><p>He would emerge 35 years later to complete the Beach Boys" unfinished album, "Smile" -- widely regarded as his masterpiece.</p><p>"Surfin" USA"</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>John Lennon said he considered "Pet Sounds" (1966) to be one of the best albums of all time, while Paul McCartney said Wilson was a "genius" -- who reduced him to tears with one song from the album, "God Only Knows," which Wilson wrote in 45 minutes.</p><p>Its melancholic depths hinted at Wilson"s own painful secret.</p><p>Born on June 20, 1942 in a Los Angeles suburb, Wilson found music as a haven of safety and joy after an upbringing in which he suffered abuse from his domineering father, who would go on to manage the group.</p><p>Music was his protection, and The Beach Boys was a family affair: he formed the band with his two brothersDennis and Carl, his cousin Mike Love and neighbor Al Jardine.</p><p>Wilson did all the songwriting, arranging and sang and played bass guitar; his bandmates just had to sing in harmony.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Their first song "Surfin," in 1961, was a loose prototype for the unique sound that would become their signature, a fusion of the rock styles of Chuck Berry and Little Richard with the preppy vocal harmonies of "The Four Freshmen."</p><p>By late 1962, there was hardly a teen who did not know them thanks to the eternal ode to youthful nonchalance, "Surfin" USA."</p><p>Lost youth</p><p>But Wilson was ill at ease on stage and did not like recording studios. In 1964 he had a panic attack on a plane to France, after which he stopped touring.</p><p>He was deaf in his right ear and his mouth sagged when he sang -- the result of the many beatings he received from his father.</p><p>"It was tough. My dad was quite the slave driver," Wilson told Rolling Stone magazine in 2018.</p><p>"He made us mow the lawn and when we were done, he"d say, "Mow it again."</p><p>The Beach Boys" early songs spoke of simple joys and innocence.</p><p>But Wilson"s writing became darker as he began to eulogize lost youth. He channeled the group towards the more psychedelic rock central to the hippie culture taking hold in California.</p><p>In 1966 he brought out "Good Vibrations," a song recorded in four different studios that consumed over 90 hours of tape and included multiple keys, textures, moods and instrumentations.</p><p>The single topped the charts and sold one million copies in the United States, but Wilson was at the brink.</p><p>In 1967, his mental health deteriorated, worn down by his enormous workload and his wild consumption of drugs.</p><p>He abandoned "Smile," planted his grand piano in a sandbox, and took vast quantities of LSD and acid.</p><p>Eventually diagnosed as schizophrenic, Wilson began hearing voices and thought the famed "Wall of Sound" producer Phil Spector was spying on him and stealing his work.</p><p>The group eventually parted ways.</p><p>"Gentlest revolutionary"</p><p>The troubled artist had long stints of rehab and relapses as well as legal issues including a lengthy, eyebrow-raising relationship with a controlling psychotherapist who was eventually blocked by a court order from contact with Wilson.</p><p>The artist credits his marriage to former model Melinda Ledbetter as helping him to rebuild his life. He revived and finished "Smile," releasing it in 2004.</p><p>His brother Dennisdrowned in 1983, while Carl died of cancer in 1998.</p><p>Last year Wilson"s family successfully pursued a legal conservatorship following the death of Melinda, with his longtime manager and publicist being put in charge of his affairs.</p><p>Wilson"s seven children were consulted by the conservators regarding major health decisions as a stipulation of the agreement.</p><p>The musician"s many accolades included a Kennedy Center Honor in 2007, when that committee dubbed him "rock and roll"s gentlest revolutionary."</p><p>"There is real humanity in his body of work," they said, "vulnerable and sincere, authentic and unmistakably American."</p> <p> Popular <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2025/02/16/2025_02_16_160267_1739672174._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Tension grows between North Sumatra, Aceh over disputed border </p> </p> </p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2020/01/08/2020_01_08_84465_1578450773._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Planned MRT extension to South Tangerang to cost $1.25b </p> </p> </p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2025/06/12/2025_06_12_163544_1749731359._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Prabowo skips G7 summit to meet Putin in Russia </p> </p> </p> </p> <p> Related Articles <p> Trump approves Nippon Steel"s $14.9 billion purchase of US Steel </p> <p> Brian Wilson"s top five Beach Boys songs </p> <p> Brian Wilson, Beach Boys musical genius dies at 82 </p> <p> French-Brazilian photographer Sebastiao Salgado dies aged 81 </p> <p> Mother"s prayer, jazz and propaganda: Titiek Puspa in five songs </p> </p> Brian Wilson, Beach Boys musical genius dies at 82 - People - The Jakarta Post	查看 9879	雅加达邮报	2025-06-12 08:00:00 2025-06-14 12:28:51	word

A youthful ode to sea, sun and girls, it became an anthem for the West Coast and beyond.</p><p>It demonstrated Brian Wilson"s increasing songwriting prowess as well as the band"s unique vocal sound achieved thanks to double tracking.</p><p>"We"ll all be gone for the summer/ We"re on safari to stay/ Tell the teacher we"re surfin"/ Surfin" USA," it rang out.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Wilson intentionally set his lyrics to the music of"Sweet Little Sixteen," byChuck Berry, leading Berry to take legal action.</p><p>"California Girls" (1965)</p><p>On the big hit of the summer of 1965, Wilson"s cousin Mike Love burst into song to celebrate the sun-tanned women of California.</p><p>"I wish they all could be California girls,"the band members sang in seemless harmony.</p><p>It was also the first song written by Wilson under the influence of LSD, "which could explain why the accompaniment seems to move in a slow, steady daze at odds with the song"s bright, major-key melody," Rolling Stone magazine wrote.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>"God Only Knows" (1966)</p><p>It took Wilson just 45 minutes to write "God Only Knows," the legendary eighth track on the album "Pet Sounds" which has gone down as one of the greatest love songs ever.</p><p>Sung by brother Carl Wilson, Brian"s rival Paul McCartney declared it to be his favourite song of all time and said it reduced him to tears.</p><p>But the record company and other members of the group were wary at the new turn in style.</p><p>Though "Pet Sounds" included hits such as "Wouldn"t It Be Nice," "Sloop John B" and "God Only Knows", it was not an immediate commercial success in the United States. There also was resistance to the album within the band, especially from singer Love, who wanted to stick with the proven money-making sound.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>"Pet Sounds", which was released in 1966, later would come to be recognized asWilson"s magnum opus. Paul McCartney said it was an influence on the Beatles" "Sgt. Pepper"s Lonely Hearts Club Band.""No one"s musical education is complete until they"ve heard "Pet Sounds"," McCartney said.</p><p>In 2012 Rolling Stone magazine rankeditsecond only to "Sgt. Pepper" on its list of the 500 greatest rock albums.</p><p>"Hearing "Pet Sounds" gave me the kind of feeling that raises the hairs on the back of your neck and you say, "What is that? It"s fantastic,"" George Martin, the Beatles" legendary producer, said in the liner notes of a reissued version of the album. "It"s like falling in love."</p><p>"Good Vibrations"(1966)</p><p>"Good Vibrations" was a massive commercial success, selling one million copies in the United Statesand topping charts there and in several other countries including the UK.</p><p>At the time the most expensive single ever made, the "pocket symphony" was recorded in four different studios, consumed over 90 hours of tape and included a complexity of keys, textures, moods and instrumentation.</p><p>The song was a far cry from the group"s surf-and-sun origins and the enormity of the task brought Wilson to the brink. He was unable to go on and complete the album "Smile," of which the song was to have been the centerpiece.</p><p>"Til I die" (1971)</p><p>On side B of the album "Surf"s Up," ""Til I die" was composed in 1969 by a depressed Wilson worn down by mental illness and addiction.</p><p>He wrote in his 1991 autobiography that it was perhaps the most personal song he had written for the Beach Boys.</p> <p> Popular <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2025/02/16/2025_02_16_160267_1739672174._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Tension grows between North Sumatra, Aceh over disputed border </p> </p> </p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2020/01/08/2020_01_08_84465_1578450773._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Planned MRT extension to South Tangerang to cost $1.25b </p> </p> </p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2025/06/12/2025_06_12_163544_1749731359._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Prabowo skips G7 summit to meet Putin in Russia </p> </p> </p> </p> <p> Related Articles <p> Bilal Indrajaya and the art of saying goodbye </p> <p> Taylor Swift gains control of her music catalog </p> <p> French-Brazilian photographer Sebastiao Salgado dies aged 81 </p> <p> Pope Francis has died, Vatican says in video statement </p> <p> Mother"s prayer, jazz and propaganda: Titiek Puspa in five songs </p> </p> Brian Wilson's top five Beach Boys songs - Entertainment - The Jakarta Post	查看 8216	雅加达邮报	2025-06-12 08:00:00 2025-06-14 12:28:51	word

3177252	有图 <p>T<p>he Prabowo Subianto administration on May 23, 2025, launched a stimulus package aimed at sustaining household consumption and maintaining economic growth momentum amid rising global uncertainties. The package consists of five short-term measures set to be implemented from June to July 2025—one fewer than initially planned after the government scrapped a proposed electricity price discount. While the consumer-focused stimulus was introduced amid ongoing fiscal tightening, it was deemed necessary following a slowdown in household consumption and overall economic growth in the first quarter of 2025.</p><p>The first measure is a Rp940 billion (US$57.82 million) transportation subsidy drawn from the state budget, which includes a 30 percent discount on train fares, a 6 percent value-added tax (VAT) reduction for airline tickets, and a 50 percent discount on sea transport fares. The second measure encourages toll road operators to provide a 20 percent toll fee discount. The third is a Rp11.93 trillion expansion in social assistance, covering 10 kilograms of rice and Rp200,000 in monthly cash transfers for 18.3 million poor and vulnerable households.</p><p>The fourth measure is a Rp10.72 trillion wage subsidy targeting 17.3 million workers earning up to Rp3.5 million per month or earning the local minimum wage, as well as 565,000 non-permanent contract teachers under the Primary and Secondary Education Ministry, as well as Religious Affairs Ministry. Each eligible worker or teacher will receive Rp300,000 in wage subsidies per month. Lastly, a Rp850 billion allocation—sourced outside the state budget—will extend a 50 percent discount on workplace accident insurance for 2.7 million workers in labor-intensive industries.</p><p>According to Statistics Indonesia (BPS), household consumption grew 4.89 percent year-on-year (yoy) in Q1 2025, contributing 2.61 percentage points to the country"s GDP, which expanded by 4.87 percent yoy to Rp5.67 quadrillion at current prices, or Rp3.26 quadrillion at constant prices. The consumption growth figure marked a decline from 4.91 percent yoy in Q1 2024 and 4.98 percent in Q4 2024. BPS noted that consumption tends to be lower in the first quarter, with Q1 2024 being an outlier due to the election season and Ramadan.</p><p>Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati clarified that the proposed electricity price discount was cancelled because its budgeting process could not be completed in time for the June–July implementation period. As compensation, the wage subsidy was doubled from the initially planned Rp150,000 per recipient. The subsidy is currently funded through the state budget as a temporary measure but is expected to be financed by the national social security agency, BPJS Ketenagakerjaan. Additionally, the Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry reportedly objected to the electricity subsidy plan, citing a lack of prior consultation.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>The Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (HIPMI) criticized the package for not including targeted incentives for the middle class, which it argues plays a crucial role in driving household consumption growth. HIPMI emphasized that stimulating middle-income consumption is essential not just for short-term growth, but for supporting entrepreneurship, employment, and long-term productivity. It proposed a complementary stimulus plan including income tax breaks for middle-class earners, first-home mortgage subsidies, public transportation and electric vehicle incentives, vocational training vouchers, school-related financial assistance, and expanded micro and household business loan facilities.</p><p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2023/10/03/2023_10_03_142902_1696308479.png" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> <p> Viewpoint Every Thursday </p> </p> </p> <p> <p>Whether you"re looking to broaden your horizons or stay informed on the latest developments, "Viewpoint" is the perfect source for anyone seeking to engage with the issues that matter most.</p> </p> <p> View More Newsletter </p> </p> <p> <p> <p>By registering, you agree with <i>The Jakarta Post</i>"s Privacy Policy </p> </p> <p> Sign Up </p> </p> </p> <p> Thank You for signing up our newsletter! <p>Please check your email for your newsletter subscription.</p> View More Newsletter </p> </p> <p>Despite the limited scope of middle-class incentives, the government’s focus on social assistance and wage subsidies is expected to help boost purchasing power among lower-income households. Meanwhile, discounts on train, airline, and sea fares—as well as reduced toll road fees—are expected to ease inflationary pressures from transportation costs. However, the lack of internal coordination that led to the cancellation of the electricity discount raises concerns about the overall effectiveness of the stimulus package.</p> <p> Popular <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2025/02/16/2025_02_16_160267_1739672174._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Tension grows between North Sumatra, Aceh over disputed border </p> </p> </p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2020/01/08/2020_01_08_84465_1578450773._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Planned MRT extension to South Tangerang to cost $1.25b </p> </p> </p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2025/06/12/2025_06_12_163544_1749731359._small.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> </p> <p> Prabowo skips G7 summit to meet Putin in Russia </p> </p> </p> </p> <p> Related Articles <p> Prabowo asks Jakarta to shell out half of seawall costs </p> <p> Analysis: Danantara’s planned corporate actions rife with contradictions </p> <p> No cabinet shake-up for now, Prabowo’s aide says </p> <p> Project strength to protect prosperity, Prabowo says </p> <p> Prabowo, Megawati get cozier amid calls for Gibran’s impeachment </p> </p> Analysis: Govt rolls out stimulus package to bolster consumption - Academia - The Jakarta Post	查看 10103	雅加达邮报	2025-06-13 08:00:00 2025-06-14 12:28:51	word

As they used to say, if you were to open up my heart, what would come out would probably be red and white,” President Prabowo Subianto said at an economic summit on April 8.</p><p>Since taking office, Prabowo has branded himself as a leader of the people. The former Army general who contested four prior elections before eventually winning in 2024, has remained consistent over the years in asserting the need for Indonesia to stand on its own two feet without reliance on the outside world.</p><p>Prabowo’s “my way or the highway” mindset is reflected in major policies like energy resilience, food self-sufficiency, village cooperatives and free schools for the poor. But at the center of his initiatives is his flagship free nutritious meal program.</p><p>During the inauguration of the Danantara sovereign wealth fund, which he initiated, Prabowo questioned why, after close to 80 years of independence, children were still starving in the country. The President called on the people to rally behind him in moral indignation in his efforts to feed 83 million Indonesian children.</p><p>The program’s entire premise revolves around people collectively buying into the idea that providing daily meals is in the best interest of the children, as well as the future prosperity of the country.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>This appeal to emotion is a powerful political tool, and one that philosopher Hannah Arendt explored in The Human Condition (1958). Arendt argued that when a nation was treated as "one enormous family", this would inevitably lead to control and conformity. According to her, this control can be manifested through the most sacred of human traits: love.</p><p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2023/10/03/2023_10_03_142902_1696308479.png" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> <p> Viewpoint Every Thursday </p> </p> </p> <p> <p>Whether you"re looking to broaden your horizons or stay informed on the latest developments, "Viewpoint" is the perfect source for anyone seeking to engage with the issues that matter most.</p> </p> <p> View More Newsletter </p> </p> <p> <p> <p>By registering, you agree with <i>The Jakarta Post</i>"s Privacy Policy </p> </p> <p> Sign Up </p> </p> </p> <p> Thank You for signing up our newsletter! <p>Please check your email for your newsletter subscription.</p> View More Newsletter </p> </p> <p>Arendt viewed love as an "anti-political" force.

3177250	有图 <p>T<p>he real cost of nickel mining has finally broken into mainstream headlines and flooded social media feeds. The trigger? A protest by Greenpeace activists and youth from Raja Ampat, Southwest Papua, who stormed the opening of the Third Indonesia Critical Minerals Conference early this month.</p><p>The protest targeted mining operations on three small islands in Raja Ampat, which are classified under Law No. 1/2014 as zones where mining is banned. Despite this, the government had issued five mining licenses.</p><p>Although the government called the protest “immature”, it sparked something big. Media outlets picked it up immediately, and online platforms were filled with anger. The hashtag #SaveRajaAmpat gained traction, with people demanding an end to nickel mining on Gag Island, Raja Ampat, and calling for business permits to be revoked.</p><p>According to social media analysis by Drone Emprit, the issue received over 23,000 mentions, 95 percent of which carried negative sentiment, mostly pointing to the environmental destruction.</p><p>Under growing pressure, the government moved quickly and revoked the permits of four out of five companies operating there. The remaining one, PT Gag Nikel, a subsidiary of state-owned PT Aneka Tambang, while being spared from the crackdown, will come under close government supervision.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>But this brouhaha leads to an important question: Why now?

3177244	有图 <p>I<p>n recent months, Indonesia has seen a subtle but significant shift in how state authority is exercised and by whom. This trend, characterized by the appointment of active and retired military officers to strategic civilian roles, the deployment of troops in non-combat domestic functions and proposals for military-style discipline in public education, points to a clear pattern: The normalization of militarization as a mode of governance.</p><p>This transformation is not driven by a single dramatic event but by a series of decisions that collectively blur the lines between civilian and military spheres. While officials often frame these actions as pragmatic responses to national challenges, their deeper implications warrant urgent attention.</p><p>This trend highlights a growing inconsistency between the government"s stated commitment to democratic principles, such as civilian supremacy, legal meritocracy and institutional professionalism. These inconsistencies signal the normalization of both emergency governance and militarization, which are fundamentally at odds with democratic accountability and meritocracy.</p><p>This discrepancy is particularly evident in recent policy moves. Consider, for example, West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi"s initiative to send "delinquent youth" to a semi-military boot camp within Indonesian Military (TNI) facilities. This exemplifies a growing public acceptance of coercive approaches, where discipline replaces civic education, bodily control supersedes critical thinking and hierarchy outweighs empathy. This goes beyond the military"s visible presence in public life; it reflects a deeper erosion of trust in civilian institutions as vital spaces for shaping society.</p><p>Instead of revitalizing schools, youth mentoring programs, families and grassroots communities as forums for civic dialogue and democratic cultivation, we are witnessing a transfer of responsibility to institutions designed for command, rather than nurturing; institutions that prioritize order over growth and control over service.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>This is where we must reclaim our civic imagination. Why not restore schools as civic institutions, teachers as moral anchors and young people as active citizens; future leaders forged not in fear, but in freedom? It is time to return to a tradition of leadership grounded in grand ideas and democratic values, promoting leadership that enlightens the public sphere rather than silencing it.</p><p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <p> <img src="https://img.jakpost.net/c/2023/10/03/2023_10_03_142902_1696308479.png" rel="noopener noreferrer"> </p> <p> Viewpoint Every Thursday </p> </p> </p> <p> <p>Whether you"re looking to broaden your horizons or stay informed on the latest developments, "Viewpoint" is the perfect source for anyone seeking to engage with the issues that matter most.</p> </p> <p> View More Newsletter </p> </p> <p> <p> <p>By registering, you agree with <i>The Jakarta Post</i>"s Privacy Policy </p> </p> <p> Sign Up </p> </p> </p> <p> Thank You for signing up our newsletter! <p>Please check your email for your newsletter subscription.</p> View More Newsletter </p> </p> <p>Another troubling development is the deployment of TNI troops to guard prosecutor"s offices nationwide.
