“Tenants must obey certain regulations when living in an apartment, which is far different from living in a landed-house,” Fendhi Ibuhindar said.
“Tenants of an apartment should abide by regulations set by the owner of the high-rise building,” he added. “This is important, especially for a family that has a young child,” he was quoted as saying by okezone.com.
According to him, the trend of living in an apartment in Jakarta started only 10 years ago. Living in an apartment has increasingly become popular.
“Most of Jakarta’s residents are more accustomed to living in a landed house and when they live in an apartment, many are not ready for apartment-living habits and regulations. They have to abandon their mindset of living in a landed-house,” he said.
He said that an owner of apartment should also consider aspects of designing and building materials that are safe for children. “The quality of building materials should be prioritized,” he said.
“Children’s safety should be the main concern with regards to the building materials that are used,” he said.
