Jakarta –
City Forest was the location for the gala dinner for heads of state and delegates to the 2023 ASEAN Summit (KTT) on Wednesday (6/9/2023). This City Forest is located in the GBK Stadium complex area, Senayan, Central Jakarta and has an area of 3.2 hectares.
The City Forest was first introduced to the Indonesian people at the 2018 Asian Games. During the Asian Games, the city forest was widely used for meetings, events and ceremonies.
Plataran Group is the sole operational developer of City Forest as well as transforming City Forest into a venue that showcases Indonesian cuisine and culture.
So who is the founder of the Plataran Group?
Reporting from the official Plataran website, Yozua Makes and Dewi Makes are the founders of the Plataran Group.
From his unique background, Yozua Makes started his career as a financial lawyer in the fields of Corporate Finance, Mergers & Acquisitions, Capital Markets, and Investment Laws. He continued his education at several international universities after graduating from the University of Indonesia.
He also succeeded in establishing his own law firm, namely Makes & Partner Law Firm in 1993 and has more than thirty-five years of experience in this field.
As a form of passion and love for Indonesian culture, the establishment of the Plataran Group began in 2009. The couple Yozua and Makes converted their private villa into a boutique villa resort in Bali. The resort offers a concept of Balinese characteristics and culture that is starting to be abandoned and offers views of lush Balinese gardens.
Plataran Group itself has a number of properties spread throughout Indonesia, ranging from healing places in the forest to luxury resorts located in the middle of rice fields. The hotel business offers a number of unforgettable holiday experiences for those who want to enjoy the beauty of nature.
In 2020, Yozua was appointed directly by President Jokowi as one of five members of the supervisory board of the Indonesian Investment Management Institute. This investment institution is tasked with managing Indonesian investment and optimizing Indonesia’s economic growth.
Apart from that, Yozua is also a member of the supervisory board of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN) as well as being the first member of the National Corporate Governance Committee.
Not only domestically, his achievements in the world of business and economics also spread to the international arena. He became a member and representative from Indonesia on the newly formed Southeast Asia Advisory Panel of Temasek (TSEAP). TSEAP consists of leading business leaders with knowledge of Southeast Asia to support investments and projects in the region.
Apart from business and economics, Yozua has also penetrated the world of education. He is a professor at the Faculty of Law, University of Indonesia and Pelita Harapan University.
