Om Doyok took these photos in June 1978 in Jakarta during his stay in Jakarta.

Aldiron plaza was under construction. The plaza was demolised in 2006.

Period of thirty years made changes of city view and myself.

Where is this? Yes, it is Jl. Melawai Raya. I saw beautiful Framboyan. On a Sunday of September 1977.
I could not find this flamboyan tree on April 2, 2010.
View of just opposite side of the above photo was this!

Do you believe that this is Kebayoran Baru? It was so quiet, but not now.
