Jakarta Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria inaugurated 'Jogging Track' Taman Kolaborasi (collaboration park) which is located at the Duren Sawit IKIP Housing Complex, Jakarta, Sunday morning (8/21).

It puts forward the concept of collaboration

On that occasion, he expressed his appreciation to all parties and also locals who have collaborated with the Jakarta administration for the revitalization of the  'Jogging Track' Taman Kolaborasi. It is a third space that is friendly for children, youth, elderly, disabled, and environmentally friendly.

He assessed that the existence of the third room in the community is no less important than the first and second spaces.

"It puts forward the concept of collaboration between the government as collaborators and residents as 'co-creators' who jointly carry out the sustainable development of Jakarta. We appreciate that residents can work together and collaborate to build this park," he expressed, as quoted by Jakarta PPID's press release, Sunday (8/21).

He explained that one of the most fundamental aspects of our lives that must be worked on with a movement and collaboration approach is environmental management. That is by providing public space as an equal third space and creating resident interaction.

The development of the third space in Jakarta keeps being intensified, which is through the construction of parks and public facilities. This collaboration will always strengthen the synergy between the government and the community in the sustainable development of Jakarta.

"Hope locals can take care of this facility together to provide good benefits for the lives of residents," he explained.

Other than as a place to interact and socialize, it was deemed to support the healthy lifestyle of the surrounding community.

A healthy lifestyle starts with a clear mind, a clean heart, eating healthy food, getting enough sleep, and also exercising; 'Mensana in Corporesano', in a healthy body has a healthy soul too.

"I believe that this park facility and jogging track will provide benefits for the health and fitness of the residents who live in this area, especially for running sports. What is made and collaborated with the community here is very good for the environment around here. The most important thing is to maintain, use together, support, and complement each other," he closed.
