Document Summary
Kind of like putrajaya; inspiring to be a global or 2nd city. In indonesia, a new province was created in 2004, so one province didn"t have a capital. Are more copyig the typical muslim/arabic architecture instead of their own. Inspiring to be an eco city, eco-city concept aside from inspiring to be a political capital. But the eco city isn"t really going great. They discovered a bauxite, which is v resourceful = now tied to illegal bauxite mines. This has sparked a lot of protests, against corruption. The first official and actual exclusive gated communities was created in the. We have more and more cities looking at global cities in the south, for inspiration/models. For dompak: they dont have the means to go to nyc or paris, they go to cities in their regions = malaysia and singapore. How chinese-indonesians/singaporians/filipino are having a cultural awakening.
