According to Muhammad Fausal Kahar, a member of Jakarta DRD, three cultural heritage areas, namely Kota Tua, Menteng, and Kebayoran Baru, as well as hundreds of cultural heritage buildings in the capital, could be potential to boost the economy.

By doing so, he hoped that areas and cultural heritage buildings in Jakarta could attract more tourists to visit, which aims to increase regional treasury income while helping the economic wheels of SMEs.
"It's about improving the wheels of the economy," he concluded.
