INTRODUCTION Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, is the largest city in South East Asia and is inhabited by over 10 million people1. It recently experienced a shift in political regime, from an elitist to a populist regime, opening opportunities to rethink the city and how it could address the needs of a previously neglected population group. This speculative thesis project attempt to materialize this shift by examining common challenges faced by both classes - water, transportation, food, information - and rethink them as opportunities to foster a symbiotic social ecology: gotong royong. This is achieved through modifying existing and creating new urban typologies that is informed by an analysis on the urban majority’s collective intelligence. This urban majority is what sociologist Abdou-Maliq Simone refer to as “that which is in-between ... a majority of contemporary urban residents who are neither poor nor middle class”2. A combination of shady census metric, selfish political agendas, and difficulties in census documentation makes it really hard to quantify the exact number and/or classification of this population group. However when one directly experiences the city, it becomes fairly clear that this population group covers the majority of the city demographic. Thus moving forward designers need to work with this urban majority, including them as part of the solution instead of excluding them, to make the city a better place for everyone.

Jakarta, ibukota Indonesia, adalah kota terbesar di Asia Tenggara dengan populasi lebih dari 10 juta orang 1. Baru-baru ini Jakarta mengalami sebuah peralihan rezim politik, dari rezim elitis menjadi populis, dan dengan itu membuka peluang untuk memikirkan kembali bagaimana kota ini mampu memenuhi kebutuhan rakyat yang selama ini telah terabaikan. Proyek tesis spekulatif ini berupaya mematerialisasi transisi rezim tersebut dengan mempelajari tantangan-tantangan perkotaan sistemik yang di hadapi oleh kaum elit dan kamu mayoritas - air, transportasi, makanan, informasi - lalu dipirkan kembali sebagai peluang untuk mencapai ekologi sosial yang simbiotik, atau gotong royong. Tujuan ini mampu dicapai melalui implementasi beragam intervensi-intervensi desain bangunan dan kota yang dipengaruhi oleh hasil analisa intelijen kolektif kaum mayoritas. Menurut sosiolog Abdou-Maliq Simone, kaum mayoritas ini adalah “mereka yang berada diantara ... sebuah mayoritas warga perkotaan kontemporer yang juga tidak miskin atau kaum menengah” 2. Metrik sensus yang mencurigakan, agenda politik yang egois, dan susahnya mendokumentasi sensus populasi hanyalah beberapa alasan mengapa susah sekali bagi pemerintah untuk menghitung seberapa besar kaum mayoritas ini dengan tepat. Walaupun tidak ada perhitungan yang tepat, sudah jelas hanya dari mengalami kehidupan dalam kota bahwa kaum mayoritas ini melingkupi sebagian besar demografi Jakarta. Di masa depan, desainer/arsitek/penata kota harus bekerja sama dengan kaum mayoritas ini, merangkumi mereka sebagai bagian dari solusi perkotaan daripada mengecualikan mereka, untuk membangun kota yang lebih baik bagi semua orang.

INDONESIA This past few months, Indonesia has experienced its greatest political shift in decades. The recently elected president is the first to emerge out of an ordinary background, without ties to older elite and military affiliations. The country is taking major steps towards democracy. As a result it is a proper time to reevaluate the top down mechanisms that has dominated the political scene since colonial times (and greatly reinforced during the New Order Era). Beberapa bulan yang lalu, Indonesia mengalami transisi politik terbesar dalam beberapa dekade terakhir ini. Presiden baru kita adalah presiden pertama yang memiliki latar belakang biasa, tidak berhubungan dengan kaum militer dan elit. Ini adalah tanda bahwa negara ini berani dan siap melakukan langkah-langkah besar menuju demokrasi. Maka dari itu, sekarang adalah waktu yang tepat untuk mengevaluasi kembali mekanisme-mekanisme Top-Down yang selama ini mendominasi praktek politik pemerintahan sejak zaman penjajahan Belanda (dan terus diperkuat dalam zaman Orde Baru).

Given this new political climate, there is now a possibility of including the urban majority into the conversation of the future of Jakarta. De-centralization and the shift towards a populist governmental approach means that people’s voices are slowly being heard. This project situates itself within the context of this possible future: a future where the urban majority have the voice to work together with top-down entities to define their cities. Suasana politik yang baru ini membuka peluang bagi kaum mayoritas untuk ikut serta dalam pembangunan masa depan kota Jakarta. Desentralisasi dan transisi menuju rezim populis adalah tanda-tanda bahwa suara rakyat semakin lama semakin memiliki pertimbangan yang lebih kuat. Proyek ini ditempatkan dalam konteks masa depan ini: masa depan dimana kaum mayoritas (Bottom-Up) memiliki wewenang untuk bekerjasama dengan kesatuan-kesatuan Top-Down untuk membangun kota mereka.

JAKARTA As of 2014, the population of Jakarta is 10,187,595. It is a coastal megacity whose population has tripled in the past 4 decades. Hingga 2014, populasi kota Jakarta telah mencapai 10,187,595. Populasi Jakarta telah meningkat tiga kali lipat dalam 4 dekade terakhir ini.

GROWING MEGACITY The issue of rapid population growth is not unique to Jakarta. More than half of the world’s population live inside this circle. There are 20 megacities with populations that exceed 10 million people, 14 of them are coastal megacities. Many of these cities face similar social, economical, and ecological problems that stem from this population growth. In many cases the government and the market fail to meet the needs of the urban majority, bringing rise to informal patterns of human settlement and activity. One of the more evident examples of informality can be seen in informal settlements or slums. Masalah pertumbuhan penduduk yang cepat bukanlah masalah yang hanya dialami kota Jakarta. Lebih dari separuh populasi dunia berada didalam lingakaran ini. Didalamnya ada 20 megacity, atau kota-kota yang memiliki penduduk lebih dari 10 juta orang. 14 darinya adalah kota-kota pesisir. Kota-kota ini menghadapi tantangan-tantangan yang serupa dalam segi sosial, ekonomi, dan ekologi, yang diakibatkan oleh pertumbuhan penduduk yang terlalu cepat. Sering kali pemerintahan dan mekanisme pasar dalam kota-kota tersebut gagal untuk memenuhi kebutuhan kaum mayoritas, yang mengakibatkan timbulnya sektor informal dalam berbagai bidang. Salah satu gejala informal tersebut adalah timbulnya perumahan liar.

KAMPUNG The slow modernization process of post-independence Indonesia lead to the gradual transition of settlement typologies. Before independence in 1945 Jakarta is predominantly Kampung, a colloquial term for indigenous settlements (whose definition slowly evolved to include informal settlements/slums). New settlement typologies such as the Komplek (gated community) and the Apartment were introduced to distinguish the urban elite from the urban majority, along with other formal development projects such as shopping malls, superblocks, elevated highways, etc. Facing pressure from modern development projects, today’s kampungs are spread across the city, filling the interstitial spaces between formal development. Some of the main distinguishing factors between kampung settlements and other more modern forms of settlements are their adoption of traditional land laws, social structures, active street life, and a stronger sense of dependence among its residents. Many of these characteristics are lost as one transition into modern settlement typologies that favor privacy and isolation over an overbearing sense of community and dependence.

Transisi dari jenis-jenis perumahan lama menjadi yang lebih modern dalam kota Jakarta berlangsung secara pelan akibat pelannya proses modernisasi kota pasca kemerdekaan. Sebelum Indonesia merdeka, kota Jakarta pada pokoknya terbuat dari Kampung-Kampung. Tipologi-tipologi perumahan baru seperti Komplek dan Apartmen baru diperkenalkan pasca kemerdekaan Indonesia untuk membedakan kaum elit dari kaum mayoritas. Selain dua jenis perumahan tersebut, tipologi-tipologi bangunan seperti mal, superblock, jalan layang, dll. juga diperkenalkan untuk memperkuat perbedaan tersebut. Pada zaman ini, kampung-kampung tersebut menghadapi tekanan dari proyek-proyek pembangunan modern yang menyebabkan berbagai macam penggusuran. Oleh karena itu, kebanyakan dari kampung-kampung yang masih tersisa hidup diantara proyek-proyek pembangunan dan ruang sisa-sisa dalam kota. Beberapa faktor utama yang membedakan kampung dan jenis-jenis perumahan modern dapat ditemukan dalam segi hukum (tradisi/adat vs modern), struktur sosial, street-life, dan ketergantungan sesama warga kampung. Banyak dari faktor-faktor ini hilang dalam transisi menuju jenis-jenis perumahan modern yang mempentingkan privasi dan isolasi daripada membangun komunitas dan ketergantungan.

ORIGIN OF KAMPUNGS There are 3 different models on the origin and development of kampungs as it relate to Jakarta. Each of these models posits a different definition and response for the future of kampungs in Jakarta.

Ada 3 teori berbeda yang berupaya untuk menjelaskan perkembangan kampung-kampung dalam Jakarta. Tiap teori ini memberi pengertian yang berbeda mengenai bagaimana kota Jakarta seharusnya menanggapi masa depan kampung-kampungnya.

i.) The In-Migration Model posits that kampung growth is “fueled by massive and continuing in-migration from the rural to the metropolitan cities.” People migrating from rural areas tend to have a lower skill set, making it really hard to compete in the job market of the city. This limitation, on top of their poor financial condition, makes it really easy to get stuck in a vicious poverty cycle. Thus many of them stays inside the kampungs. Under this view, kampung residents are seen as negative, parasites, that “impede the creation of a sustainable metropolitan city.”

i.) Menurut Model In-Migrasi perkembangan kampung “diakibatkan oleh migrasi massal warga-warga desa ke daerah perkotaan.” Kebanyakan dari warga-warga desa yang rela mengadu nasib di daerah perkotaan datang dengan skill set yang rendah dan membuatnya sangat sulit untuk bersaing dengan warga-warga kota dalam mencari pekerjaan. Ditambah lagi kebanykan dari mereka datang dari latar belakang miskin sehingga mereka gampang terjebak dalam siklus kemiskinan. Oleh karena itu kebanyakan dari mereka terpaksa hanya bisa tinggal dalam kampung-kampung dalam kota atau rumah-rumah liar. Menurut teori ini warga kampung dipandang sebagai parasit yang “menghalangi pembangunan kota metropolitan yang berkelanjutan”.

ii.) The Indigenous Model views kampungs as a stepping stone in the evolution of cities. During the Dutch colonial period, the old part of the city called Kota (literal translation of City) is a walled community exclusive to the Dutch and Priyayi (native noblemen) that is surrounded by kampungs, village settlements that serve the Kota. These kampungs are often segregated by ethnicity and/or occupation, many of them still bearing its name until this day. After the independence the city boundaries continue to grow and the kampungs were engulfed by the city’s development. Under this view, the kampungs are recognized as one step above rural villages, but still one step behind city (or the ideal, western image of a city). As a result, programs such as the Kampung Improvement Program were implemented to “upgrade” these kampung settlements physically so that they can seem more suitable for a modern city. iii.) The Urban Social Ecology Model starts by dismissing the first two models and dismiss the Kampung-Kota dichotomy. Instead of trying to “upgrade” the kampung to fit some ideal image of a city (imposed by Western ideology) it understands the existing and potential future systems or networks that intersect both formal and informal sectors. Today the formal and informal sectors of the city already depend on each other, despite the reluctance of the formal sector to acknowledge it.

ii.) Menuru Model Pribumi kampung-kampung adalah sebuah tahap dalam evolusi kota. Waktu zaman penjajahan Belanda, kota tua Jakarta adalah sebuah komunitas eksklusif yang umumnya dihuni oleh warga Belanda dan Priyayi dan disekelilingi oleh kampungkampung (yang bekerja untuk warga-warga dalam kota). Kampungkampung teresebut biasanya terbuat dari satu suku atau satu jenis pekerjaan dan sampai sekarang nama-nama kampung tersebut masih bertahan. Setelah Indonesia merdeka perbatasan kota Jakarta diperbesar dan merangkupi kampung-kampung tersebut. Menurut teori ini, kampung dapat dilihat sebagai suatu tahap dalam evolusi jenis perkotaan; sebuah tahap diantara desa dan kota modern. Dari teori ini kita bisa lihat contoh-contoh inisiatif pemerintahan seperti Program Perbaikan Kampung (atau KIP) yang memiliki misi untuk “meningkatkan” kualitas kampung-kampung agar lebih mendekati ciri-ciri yang lebih modern. iii.) Model Ekologi Sosial mulai dengan menolak dua teori sebelumnya karena teori-teori tersebut menciptakan dikotomi kampung-kota. Menurut teori ini kita harus menerima keadaan kota Jakarta seadanya dan memanfaatkan potensi-potensi jaringan dan sistem-sistem yang mampu menggabungkan sektor formal dan informal. Kita tidak bisa mencoba untuk “meningkatkan” atau “memperbaiki” kampung-kampung dan memaksa mereka untuk menyesuaikin diri kedalam gambaran kota yang ideal (menurut definisi-definisi ideologi perkotaan Barat). Pada kenyataanya sekarang kedua sektor tersebut sudah bekerjasama dan saling bergantung satu sama lain walaupun sektor formal masih segan-segan untuk menanggapinya.

JAVA The majority of Indonesia’s population is concentrated on the island of Java. Many transmigration initiative were tried by various governments (as far back as the Dutch occupation) however the island remains as the central hub of Indonesia’s economy, politics, and culture.

Mayoritas penduduk Indonesia menghuni pulau Jawa. Beberap inisiatif transmigrasi sudah pernah dicoba oleh berbagai rezim pemerintahan (sejauh zaman penjajahan Belanda) untuk menyebar dan meratakan populasi Indonesia. Namun sampai sekarang pulau Jawa tetap merupakan pusat ekonomi, politik, dan budaya Indonesia.

ETHNIC BREAKDOWN The economic opportunities of living in Jakarta is a key factor in drawing people from other parts of the country. Often each ethnicity is known for certain crafts, traditional food, and occupations and the tradition of inviting other family members to pursue these crafts and occupations perpetuate the high inmigration rate. 5

Banyaknya peluang pekerjaan adalah salah satu faktor utama yang menarik bagi orang-orang dari berbagai daerah Indonesia untuk datang ke Jakarta. Tiap suku-suku tersebut dikenal oleh jenis-jenis kerajinan tangan, makanan, atau pekerjaan tertentu dan seringkali mereka (yang sudah bekerja di Jakarta) mengundang anggota keluarga mereka untuk ikut kerja di Jakarta, dan mengakibatkan meningginya jumlah migrasi ke kota Jakarta

KOTA Parallel to the development and evolution of kampungs is the development of Kota, or the city. After independence, under the Old and New order, there is a certain governmental aspiration to turn Jakarta into a ‘modern’ city. This is done by creating great infrastructural projects such as expanding highway networks, creating satellite city communities, shopping malls, and other major developer projects. In reality, this idea of a modern and ideal city is a fiction, imposed by the government to give them license to execute initiatives that marginalize the poor and favor the elite. The urban typologies highlighted to the left are just some examples of the consequence of having such aspirations. Many of these typologies exclude or limit the participation of urban majority residents; they were made in favor of the elite. In a way, these typologies can be seen as a physical manifestation of the dichotomy between the urban majority and the urban elite. In the upcoming chapters, many of the prototypes and urban interventions targets these typologies and attempts to manipulate them in a way that can balance out the benefits between the urban majority and the urban elite. Many of them often operate in the thresholds of these typologies, as since Jakarta is a highly dense city, contrasting conditions often occur very closely to each other; a kampung next to a gated complex, a kampung next to a shopping mall, etc.

Bersamaan dengan perkembangan kampung adalah perkembangan kota. Pasca kemerdekaan, dibawah kepemimpinan Orde Lama dan Orde Baru, pemerintahan memiliki aspirasi untuk mengubah image Jakarta menjadi kota yang ‘modern’. Modernisasi ini dicapai melalui berbagai macam proyek-proyek infrastruktural besar seperti pembangunan jalan tol, komunitas-komunitas satelit, mal, dll. Namun dalam realita ide image kota modern hanyalah rekayasa pemerintahan untuk mengizinkan inisiatif-inisiatif pembangunan yang meminggirkan kaum mayoritas demi kamu elit. Tipologi-tipologi bangunan modern di sebelah kiri hanyalah beberapa contoh dari hasil aspirasi kepemimpinan lama itu. Banyak dari tipologi-tipologi ini meniadakan atau membatasi partisipasi kaum mayoritas. Dengan kata lain, tipologi-tipologi tersebut dapat dibilang adalah manifestasi fisik dari dikotomi kaum mayoritas dan kaum elit. Dalam bab-bab yang akan datang, banyak dari intervensi-intervensi desain yang diusul menargetkan tipologi-tipologi ini dalam upaya untuk memanipulasi mereka agar kepentingan kaum mayoritas juga dianggap dengan lebih sungguh-sungguh. Banyak dari intervensiintervensi ini terletak dalam ambang diantara dalam/luar perbatasan tipologi-tipologi tersebut. Karena kota Jakarta adalah kota yang sangat padat, seringkali kondisi-kondisi perbedaan yang drastis dapat dikunjung saling bermepetan; kampung disamping komplek, kampung disamping mal, dll.

PEMBANGUNAN As a response to the overcrowding of the old city center, President Soekarno annexed neighboring villages and districts to further expand Jakarta’s boundaries. The first satellite city project, Kebayoran Baru, was initiated during this time period.

1960 Presiden Soekarno mengambil alih daerah-daerah di sekitar kota tua Jakarta sebagai reaksi terhadap kepadatan penduduk di dalam kota tua. Dalam periode ini proyek kota satelit pertama, Kebayoran Baru, mulai dibangun sebagai contoh perumahan modern pada zaman itu.

27


1970 Under Soeharto’s ambitious development plans, the creation of highway networks accommodated urban sprawl and ultimately lead to the annexation of neighboring cities such as Tangerang, Depok, and Bekasi. Around this time, developers initiated many suburban complexes in this newly annexed areas to accommodates the rising population of Jakarta.

28


1980 Dibawah rencana-rencana pembangunan ambisius Soeharto, jaringan tol yang mencapai daerah-daerah pinggir kota membantu aneksasi kota-kota disekitar Jakarta seperti Tangerang, Depok, dan Bekasi. Pada periode ini, banyak developer-developer mulai membangun perumahan-perumahan baru di daerah-daerah pinggir kota tersebut dan dengan itu juga membantu meningkatnya penduduk di Jakarta dan sekitarnya.

29


1990 With the annexation of Bogor, the greater metropolitan area of Jakarta achieved its current state: Jabodetabek. As of 2014, the combined population of this metropolitan area is 30,091,131.

CHAPTER II double standards

34


DOUBLE STANDARDS The dichotomy between kampung and kota is reinforced under the framework of the first two kampung origin models. These two models have conventionally been used by the government to impose an image of a modern Jakarta; a kampung-free city. The result is a double standard that always favor the rich. Since the New Order Era, the motto ‘Pembangunan’ or development was used to impose order on the city. This formed an ideology of formalizing, limiting and controlling public space through meanings such as order, regulation, cleaning up, and eradication. There is a sense that the city needs to be ‘neatened up’, ‘cleaned up’, ‘made to fall into line’, free from the eyesore of street peddlers and the urban poor. Over time this stigma of an elite versus a majority further matured and is ingrained as an expected condition. However all of this reached its peak during the May 1998 riots, as seen in the image to the left. Out of frustration and dissatisfaction with the New Order government that favored the elite, the urban majority took over the streets of Jakarta and demanded a governmental reformation. It has been a slow and steady process since that event as old habits of corruption and double standards are still rampant. Moving forward, we cannot address issues of land ownership, flood, diminishing water supply, etc. perpetuated by urban majority residents without addressing the same issues for the urban elite. None of these issues are single sided; they affect everyone in both classes. However in the past, government initiatives that attempt to address these issues are often executed with a greater price for the urban majority. This chapter will go through several topics where a double standard is present, highlighting its causes and implications.

Dikotomi kampung dan kota diperkuat oleh teori perkembangan kampung pertama dan kedua. Secara konvensional kedua teori tersebut sudah dianggap sebagai protokol standar untuk membangun image kota Jakarta yang modern: kota bebas dari kampung. Akibat dari cara pemikiran ini adalah timbulnya sifat standar ganda yang memihak ke kaum elit. Sejak Orde Baru, motto ‘Pembangunan’ kerap kali digunakan untuk menertibkan masayarakat. Motto ini membentuk ideologi pemerintahan yang harus menguasai dan membatasi ruang publik melalui berbagai macam pembersihan, eradikasi, dan regulasi. Ada semacam pengertian bahwa kota ini harus ‘dirapikan’, ‘dibersihkan’, ‘ditertibkan’, dan dibuat bebas dari rakyat miskin perkotaan. Lama kelamaan ini mengakibatkan timbulnya stigma elit vs mayoritas. Semua ini mencapai puncaknya pada peristiwa kerusuhan Mei 1998, seperti dapat dilihat pada gambar di sebelah kiri. Masyarakat mengambil alih jalanan dan berdemonstrasi dengan tuntutan reformasi pemerintahan karena mereka sudah kecewa dengan pemerintahan Orde Baru yang korup. Sejak saat itu reformasi ini telah berjalan dengan pelan karena sampai sekarang kebiasaan-kebiasaan lama seperti korupsi dan standar ganda masih ada. Kita tidak bisa menyalahkan isu-isu pemilikan tanah, banjir, berkurangnya persediaan air, dll. kepada pihak kaum mayoritas tanpa menyalahkan kaum elit karena kedua dari pihak tersebut sama-sama bersalah. Isu-isu tersebut mempengaruhi semua orang dalam kedua pihak. Namun secara historis pendekatan pemerintahan terhadap isuisu ini kerap kali di implementasikan dengan harga yang lebih besar bagi kaum mayoritas. Bab ini akan menyelidiki asal dan akibat dari beberapa isu perkotaan dimana terdapat sebuah standar ganda.

35


LAND OWNERSHIP It is estimated that almost 50% of buildings in Jakarta was built without proper paperwork and process, technically this means they are built illegally. This ranges from a small fast food vendor on the side of a street up to giant stadiums that have popularly held concerts by international artists. Therefore claiming that the reason they are evicting these Kampungs because of their land status and/or for the “greater good” is simply unfair and further shows the administration’s bias

towards preserving elite interests. An example of this can be seen in the Pantai Indah Kapuk housing complex. The site used to be a protected Mangrove forest that covers 2,871 acres. As part of the consequences of building here, according to its environmental impact analysis it is the developer’s responsibility to replace/replant the forest appropriately across the city. This was never done, nor taken seriously by the developer, and as a result the complex still stands today.

36


Sekitar 50% dari gedung-gedung di Jakarta tidak memiliki suratsurat/izin bangunan, atau dalam kata lain gedung-gedung ini dibangun secara ilegal. Segala macam gedung dapat ditemukan dalam kategori ilegal ini, dari tempat makan kecil di pinggir jalan sampai stadium besar yang sudah sering kali digunakan sebagai panggung untuk pertunjukan artis-artis internasional. Penggusuran kampung-kampung karena status surat-surat bangunan/tahan mereka atau demi kebaikan masyarakat sebenarnya adalah alasanalasan yang tidak adil. Contoh dari pemihakan pemerintah ke kaum

elit dapat dilihat dari contoh proyek perumahan Pantai Indah Kapuk. Lokasi ini dulunya adalah sebuah hutan mangrove lindung dengan luas 1,161 hektar. Sebagai perjanjian diantara developer dan kota atas pembangunan proyek ini, developer tanggung jawab menanam/ menggantikan pohon-pohon yang ditebang di berbagai daerah di dalam kota Jakarta. Ini tidak pernah dilakukan, ataupun dianggap dengan serius oleh developer, dan maka dari itu proyek ini masih berdiri sampai hari ini.

37


FLOOD The first ever record of a major flood in Jakarta goes back to the Dutch Colonial Period. In both 1876 and 1918, major flood hit Jakarta (then called Batavia) paralyzing transportation systems and the electrical grid. In 1979, almost 3,000 acres of land in Jakarta was impacted by the flood. Starting from 1996, the city experiences a consistent frequency of major floods every 5-6 years. The 2007 flood killed almost 100 people and covered 60% of the city, reaching up to 5m at some points

in the city. The 2013 flood dealt the most financial cost with the city losing 20 trillion Rupiah (20 million USD). Part of the justification of evicting and relocating Kampungs located along rivers, reservoirs, and other water infrastructures is this issue of flood. Their presence is blamed for silting the rivers and reducing its ability to contain water in the case of flooding. This justification is a double standard as other developments in the formal sector also contribute to causing the flood.

38


Banjir besar di Jakarta pertama kali di rekor pada zaman penjajahan Belanda. Ada dua banjir besar pada waktu itu di tahun 1876 dan 1918 yang melumpuhkan sistem transportasi dan listrik. Pasca kemerdekaan pada tahun 1979, lebih dari 1,200 hektar tanah di Jakarta terkena dampak banjir besar. Mulai dari tahun 1996 sampai sekarang, kota ini terus-menerus mengalami banjir besar tiap 5-6 tahun. Banjir besar tahun 2007 menelan sekitar 100 jiwa dan menyelimuti sekitar 60% tanah kota. Di beberapa titik banjir ini bisa mencapai 5m. Banjir besar tahun 2013 memiliki dampak finansial

yang paling besar, atau sekitar 20 triliun rupiah. Salah satu alasan atau dasar kebenaran penggusuran kampung-kampung di pinggiran sungai/waduk adalah banjir. Keberadaan mereka disalahkan atas isu-isu seperti pendangkalan dan pengecilan sungai yang ikut mengakibatkan banjir-banjir besar. Dasar kebenaran ini sebenarnya didasari oleh standar ganda karena proyek-proyek dari sektor formal juga seharusnya disalahkan (dan ditindak lanjutkan melalui inisiatif pemerintahan) atas membantu mengakibatkan banjir-banjir besar.

WATER SUPPLY After the fall of Soeharto, the government decided to privatize the public water supply company hoping that the competitive nature of the market can further expand the network. They managed to increase the water network over tenfold (to cover 60% of the city) however private interest still hinder them from reaching the poorest population. On top of that, the privatization of the public sector means the priority becomes that of generating capital rather than serving the people.

Today, lower income households pay the highest per unit prices for water and spend the highest proportions of overall income on household water supply. Even though networked water is the cheapest system, there are multiple barriers to entry that hinders poorer households from wanting to be part of the network such as high initial cost, unreliable water pressure, and administrative barriers. Lower income households chose to pay more for alternative water supply.

Sekitar waktu Soeharto turun jabatan, pemerintahan memutuskan untuk memprivatisasi pasokan air umum ke perusahaan-perusahaan air asing dalam upaya untuk memperluas jaringan pipa air dalam kota Jakarta. Inisiatif ini berhasil mempeluas jaringan pipa air sebanyak sepuluh kali lipat dan mencapai 60% warga Jakarta. Namun kepentingan pribadi perusahaan-perusahaan swasta tersebut seringkali menjadi halangan perluasan jaringan pipa air ke daerah-daerah yang lebih kumuh. Tujuan perusahaan swasta untuk memaksimalkan pendapatan tidak sejalan dengan tujuan untuk

melayani semua orang tanpa memperhatikan status. Sekarang warga kelas menengah kebawah terpaksa membayar harga tertinggi per unit air bersih, atau menghabiskan proporsi tertinggi pendapatan keseluruhan pada pasokan air rumah tangga. Walaupun jaringan pipa air adalah sumber air bersih yang paling murah per unit, beberapa halangan seperti biaya awal yang tinggi, tekanan air yang tidak bisa diandalkan, dan halangan administratif membuat banyak warga kelas menengah kebawah memilih sumber air alternatif.

GUILTY private companies are less willing to extend water connections to poorer neighborhoods

TRAFFIC JAM In 2004 Sutiyoso, then governor of Jakarta, introduced the TransJakarta BRT (bus rapid transportation) system with dedicated busway lanes in an attempt to alleviate traffic congestion in the city. This was seen as a positive move after the failed monorail projects of the past. It has a limited reach across the city, leading many urban majority residents to still rely on transportasi rakyat (people’s transportation), other informal modes of transportation that are often blamed for

the traffic congestion issues of the city. They form to meet the demands for mobility of the middle to lower class in urban areas. Government initiatives that attempt to address traffic issues often target these outdated transportation modes, trying to limit their activity and presence in the city. On top of that, the government also seem to favor road expansion projects over improving public transportation quality.

42


Pada tahun 2004 Sutiyoso, gubernur Jakarta pada waktu itu, memperkenalkan sistem TransJakarta BRT (transportasi bis cepat) lengkap dengan jalur khusus (atau busway) dalam upaya untuk mengurangi kemacetan dalam kota Jakarta. Inisiatif ini ditanggapi secara positif oleh publik, dibandingkan dengan inisatif monorail sebelumnya yang gagal. Namun sistem ini masih baru dan memiliki jaringan yang terbatas, dan terpaksa banyak dari kaum mayoritas masih mengandalkan jenis-jenis transportasi rakyat lainnya. Jenisjenis transportasi ini sering disalahkan atas masaslah kemacetan

dalam kota. Jenis-jenis transportasi ini masih ada sampai sekarang karena mereka memenuhi kebutuhan mobilitas kelas menengah kebawah dalam daerah perkotaan. Banyak dari inisiatif pemerintahan berupaya untuk mengurangi dan menghilangi jenis-jenis transportasi tersebut karena mereka dianggap ketinggalan jaman. Namun daripada memperkenalkan inisatif-inisatif untuk memperbaiki atau memperbarui sistem-sistem transportasi umum ini, pemerintahan masih lebih memilih inisiatif-inisiatif yang memperluas jaringan jalan seperti proyek jalan layang, dll.

DESIGN METHOD From the initial series of analysis conducted in the first half of the year, a design method is mapped out to help drive the design logic of the new urban prototypes. The second of half of the year focuses on the development of 28 urban prototypes and their deployment in a sample site located in the heart of the city to project a scenario in which bottom-up and top-down intelligence work together to improve the city.

(see appendix A) MAPPING + ANALYSIS

Metode desain ini dibuat dari hasil analisa-analisa dalam semester pertama untuk membantu membangun logika desain untuk berbagai macam prototipe intervensi dalam kota. Semester kedua ini lebih terfokus dalam pengembangan 28 prototipe intervensi dan implementasi mereka dalam sebuah lokasi percobaan yang terletak dalam pusat kota Jakarta. Melalui implementasi dalam lokasi yang nyata kita baru bisa mulai menggambar skenario-skenario masa depan dimana kesatuan-kesatuan Bottom-Up (kaum mayoritas) dan Top-Down (kaum elite) mampu bekerja sama untuk membuat kota Jakarta yang lebih baik.

KUNINGAN After the Prototype charrette, a sample site is chosen to test the deployment and connection of various prototypes within the given site. This site in Kuningan, Jakarta is an ideal urban core sample as it represents the drastic contrast between the urban elite and the urban majority. Here, business districts, shopping malls, kampungs, gated complexes, and elevated highways meet to form complex social and spatial conditions.

52

Sebuah lokasi percobaan di tengah kota Jakarta dipilih untuk menguji implementasi dan koneksi diantara berbagai macam prototipe yang cocok dalam lokasi ini. Lokasi yang dipilih adalah daerah Kuningan karena daerah ini memiliki kondisi-kondisi dimana perbedaan drastis diantara kaum mayoritas dan kaum elit sangat nyata, Disini business district, mal, kampung, komplek perumahaan elit, dan jalan layang bertemu untuk membentuk kondisi sosio-spasial yang kompleks.

SCENARIO MATRIX This matrix depicts a series of possible scenarios and hybrid prototypes that can emerge from the intersection of bottom-up and top-down initiatives. The X-axis represents bottom-up intelligence (7 key words), the Y-axis represents necessary top-down initiatives that can expand/authorize the manipulation of existing urban typologies. PARKING GARAGE A developer initiative to lease out the first two floors of its exterior parking garages to kaki lima (mobile vendor) co-ops can help ease the usurpation of public space around the back alley of this shopping mall. SHOPPING MALL AS WATER SUPPLIER Groundwater supply in existing kampungs were disrupted when giant developer projects enter the area and uses a similar but larger mechanism to supply their water needs. A government intervention to limit the developer’s existing practice on water supply and instead, provide other means of supplying water, can turn these projects into active water suppliers for surrounding communities. In return, the government can grant benefits to such developers such as tax deduction, permit extensions, future permits, etc. FLYOVER SIDEWALK The recent construction of flyovers across the city created wide and covered sidewalks that are currently under utilized. A government initiative to allow the productive use of these sidewalks to various actors can help ease the usurpation of public space by food carts, vendors, etc. EXTENDED SIDEWALK Most roads in Jakarta either have inadequate or non-existent sidewalks, forcing many pedestrians to simply walk carefully next to cars and motorcycles. A government initiative to extend sidewalks / reduce the number of vehicular lanes can begin to provide a safe pedestrian culture in this car-centric city. GATED COMPLEX LOTS Parks and empty lots within gated complexes are often left unused for long periods of time. Kampung dwellers are already using these lots as farm or playing fields, despite treading legal boundaries. The creation of a land use licensing mechanism will not only legalize these temporary uses but also actively promote productive work in these empty lots. OTHER SPECULATIVE LOTS A similar mechanism can also be applied to other lots outside of a gated complex setting, such as speculative developer lots, public lots, etc.

EXISTING CONDITION

Matriks ini menggambarkan beberapa skenario dan prototipe hibrida yang muncul dari pertemuan intelijen Bottom-Up dan inisiatif TopDown. Pada sumbu X terdapat 7 kata kunci yang mewakili intelijen Bottom-Up, pada sumbu Y terdapat inisiatif-inisiatif Top-Down yang mampu memperluas/mengizinkan kapabilitas untuk memanipulasi berbagai tipologi-tipologi perkotaan.

GARASI PARKIR Inisiatif dari pihak developer untuk menyewakan dua lantai pertama dari garasi parkir eksterior untuk pedagang kaki lima agar membantu mengurangi perebutan kuasa akan jalan umum dibelakang mal. MAL SEBAGAI PEMASOK AIR Persediaan air tanah kampung-kampung yang terletak disekitar proyek developer besar terganggu karena kedua pihak ini saling berebut air. Semacam intervensi pemerintahan untuk membatasi kewenangan developer dalam menggali sumur-sumur untuk persediaan air dan sebaliknya menuntut mereka untuk menyediakan persediaan air alternatif (lewat air hujan, dll.) mampu merubah proyek-proyek besar ini menjadi pemasok air yang aktif bagi komunitas disekitarnya. Sebagai imbalan, pemerintahan mampu memberikan potongan pajak, perpanjangan surat izin, surat-surat izin untuk proyek selanjutnya, dll. TROTOAR JALAN LAYANG Proyek jalan layang baru-baru ini menciptakan banyak trotoar lebar dan tertutupi yang masih belum dimanfaatkan. Semacam inisiatif pemerintahan yang mengizinkan penggunaan produktif pada trotoartrotoar bagi berbagai macam pihak mampu mengurangi perebutan jalan umum yang sering terjadi diantara pedagang kaki lima, dll. PELEBARAN TROTOAR Kebanyakan jalanan di Jakarta tidak memiliki trotoar atau kondisi trotoarnya sudah sangat buruk. Kondisi ini memaksa pejalan kaki untuk berjalan dengan hati-hati di jalan umum. Semacam inisiatif pemerintahan untuk melebarkan trotoar mampu memberi insentif untuk membangun budaya pejalan kaki dan juga mengurangi jumlah jalur kendaraan. TANAH KOSONG DALAM KOMPLEK Taman-taman dan tanah kosong didalam komplek perumahaan elit seringkali jarang digunakan. Warga kampung disekitarnya kadangkadang sudah memanfaatkan tanah kosong tersebut untuk dijadikan kebun pertanian walaupun mungkin tidak secarah sah. Semacam sistem penyewaan lahan kosong yang bersifat sementara mampu melegalisir kegiatan-kegiatan produktif (seperti berkebun) dalam lahan-lahan tersebut. TANAH KOSONG/SPEKULATIF Semacam mekanisme yang serupa dapat diterapkan ke tanah kosong/ spekulatif lainnya diluar konteks komplek perumahaan elit, seperti tanah pemerintah, tanah kosong lainnya, dll.

HYBRIDS The scenario’s presented earlier created opportunities for multiple prototypes to gather and work with each other by forming hybrid prototypes. The public sphere located at the threshold of elite and majority urban typologies begin to transform as more and more of these individual, small interventions aggregate.

70

Skenario-skenario ini mampu memberi peluang bagi berbagai macam prototipe berbeda untuk berkumpul dan bekerjasama untuk membentuk prototipe-prototipe hibrida. Ruang publik yang terletak diantara perbatasan tipologi-tipologi gedung di lokasi ini pelan-pelan berubah bentuk sejalan dengan berkumpulnya intervensi-intervensi desain. Intervensi-intervensi yang awalnya hanya bersifat kecil/individu baru bisa bekerja sebagai infrastruktur yang lebih besar ketika mereka berkumpul dan bekerja sama.

KAMPUNG TIMELINE Jakarta used to be filled with Kampungs that surround its historic city center. Through modern development and annexation of surrounding land, these Kampung areas shrunk and dispersed across the city.

MADE IN JAKARTA This catalog attempts to capture the various methods, techniques, and approaches that kampung residents use to craft their built environment. The buildings chosen for this catalog is taken from the seven case study kampungs from chapter 1 in an attempt to get a variety of approaches depending on where they are located in the city. Despite the geographic differences, many overlaps of techniques and approaches could be found across all seven places. Several conclusions were derived by analyzing these buildings. These conclusions are embodied in these seven key concepts that describe the collective intelligence shared among Kampungs on how they respond to limitations of materials and site.

EXTENDED STREET The street is the main source of life in the Kampungs; it is the heart of public life. Moves such as extending furniture and/or changing the material of the entry was done to merge public and private realms.

100


101


HYBRID PROGRAMS Continuous improvizations and a lack of regulation allowed many of the buildings to contain mixed program. The popular rental system incentivize smaller subdivision of spaces to accommodate more people and functions.

102


103


GOTONG ROYONG Gotong Royong is a social concept that promotes volunteerism; looking out for each other. It is an important concept that have promoted collaboration and sharing between Kampung residents.

104


105


URGENT ADAPTATION When faced with challenging site constraints, Kampung residents can come up with creative solutions that are often very abrupt. Many of these examples include their creative approaches on using trees (as structure, etc.).

106


107


STREET POP-UPS Kampung residents are adaptive opportunists that are willing to take risks and be entrepreneurial. Structures highlighted here are temporary pop-ups that come and go based on changing needs and situations.

EXTENDED ROOF Extending the roof is a common strategy for defining new spaces (such as a porch) and weather protection. Because of its multi-functional purpose, there are many overlaps with other keywords.

URBAN IMPROVIZATIONS Moving beyond individual buildings, this chapter analyzes existing patterns of how the urban majority navigates the flow of resources within the city. Looking through the lens of four urban systems - transportation, water, food, information examples of improvisations are picked to show both positive and negative attributes that each of them possess.

WATER SYSTEM Jakarta privatized its water utilities in 1997 in an attempt to increase connectivity. Today only 60% of the city is connected to the water network, leading many to find alternative water sources such as groundwater pumping, refillable water tanks, and mobile vendors. Many of these alternative water supply methods are driven by scarcity and high pressure conditions, and many of them often lead to other consequences such as land subsidence, reduced water quality, etc. Thus the water prototypes will attempt to create alternative water supply and water distribution methods with less negative impact.

167


GROUNDWATER PUMPING WATER SYSTEM Only 60% of the city is connected to piped water and many opt for alternative sources, one of which is groundwater pumping. It has higher initial costs but in the long run it is considered to be a more reliable source of water. This system is prevalent across both the formal and informal sector and it emerged out of the demand for reliable clean water.

Vendors fill up their tanks in water depots, public hydrants, etc. and distribute them across neighborhoods. It is the most expensive source of clean water yet it is the most widely used by the poorer population in the city.

TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM In 2004 the Transjakarta BRT system was introduced as an attempt to alleviate traffic congestion in the city. It has a limited network leading many people to still rely on transportasi rakyat (urban majority modes of transportation) such as the angkot, mikrolet, ojek, etc., often blamed for the traffic problems of the city. On top of that, the city’s overreliance on private modes of transportation and a lack of pedestrian culture further perpetuates traffic congestion in the city. The transportation prototypes will attempt to create new systems that will reduce the need for private vehicles, reversing the negative stigma associated with public transportation, and encourage a pedestrian culture.

177


NGETEM TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM Ngetem is the practice of stalling in the middle of the road to pick up potential passengers. These passengers range from ordinary passengers to various actors that can benefit from being inside the angkot/mikrolet such as street artists, beggars, and hawkers. This system emerged as a response to the lack of formal stops and the demand for passenger’s convenience to hop on/off public transportation.

FOOD SYSTEM The main areas of food distribution for the urban majority lies in the traditional markets. It is a place where the urban majority convene and sell traditional food and crafts local to their place of origin. Proximity to these markets are a driving factor for kampung settlements. An extension of these markets are the mobile food vendors, who plays an important role in distributing food and jobs. However their seemingly disorganized and unhygienic practices, and usurpation of street space is seen as a problem that needs to be addressed. The food prototypes will expand on these existing improvisations and provide avenues for increased hygiene and creating new spaces for these vendors.

187


PEDAGANG KAKI LIMA FOOD SYSTEM These mobile food vendors have an ubiquitous presence across the city. Their name literally translates to 5 legs, referring to the person’s two legs, the cart’s two wheels, and the fifth leg for support. There is a huge demand for mobile food vendors because they provide authentic traditional street food.

INFORMATION SYSTEM Jakarta’s road system can be classified into 4 categories: highways, primary roads (arteries), secondary roads (collectors), and local roads. The local roads are colloquially known as mouse paths, generally unmapped areas where only local people know how to navigate through them. But with the advent of the information revolution, Jakarta as an early adopter of smartphone and social media, new doors on how one can navigate the city are opened by utilizing these new technologies. The government enforced strict media censorship during the New Order regime. Since the Reformation there has been a continuous push by the people towards transparency. In the most recent presidential election, active and uncensored participation by the population in social media platforms was key in steering public opinion and ultimately the result of the election itself. This amount of freedom is a sign that people are ready for change. The information protoypes attempt to further democratize the dissemination of information through both digital and analog means.

197


SUPERGRAPHIC CELLULAR ADS INFORMATION SYSTEM The supergraphic ads on warungs are targeted towards the urban majority living in kampungs. It emerged out of competition between the cellular companies and the opportunity for warung’s to make extra money by providing ad space.

A symptom of this explosion can be seen in the various campaign banners scattered across the city.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank God and my parents for their unconditional support on my pursuit of becoming an architect. I would also like to thank my advisors Rami el Samahy, MaryLou Arscott, and Art Lubetz for continuously challenging my pre-conceived notions on architecture and pushed me beyond my comfort zone. Additionally I also want to thank Kelly Hutzell, Greg Spaw, Christina Geros, Kai Gutschow, and my fellow studio-mates for their creative support and critique throughout the project. This book is dedicated to the future generation of architects, designers, and thinkers who also have a similar passion to reshape the place I’ve called home: Jakarta.
