TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta: The Zoning Decree that Parliament passed on March 26 regulates the zoning of modern market.
As for more-detailed arrangements, they will be included in the regional zoning made by regional governments.
Based on the zoning policy, for example wholesalers are allocated in suburban areas, hypermarkets in the major cities, supermarkets in satellite cities and mini-market in districts and sub districts.
“Modern markets cannot be built anywhere, although the allocation is not strict,” said Hermanto Dardak, Director General of Zone Planning at the Public Works Department, when contacted on Thursday (19/4) in Jakarta.
The arrangement is related to the environment, such as traffic jam potential and facilities, as well as infrastructure needs.
“What hasn’t talked about yet is competition with traditional market,” said Hermanto
The Trade Department complained about the zoning in the Government Regulation Draft on Modern Markets.
