Abstract

As we know that our forefather’s culture inheritance should protected such as the old historical building,monument and so on. We should not just close our eyes and then ignore it. Lawangsewu building is one ofthe old historical buildings as a landmark and icon for the City of Semarang. It is also a national culturalasset and one of the tourism resorts so basically it’s dealing with the Indonesian law, regulation and thegovernment’s authority.Actually there are a lot of foreign and domestic investors who want to use Lawangsewu building as a hotelbut usually it has been just a topic without an action. Nowadays, most of the historical buildings inSemarang are ‘lost’ and it has been uncountable how many of them were lost because of the economic andpolitical reason.The City of Semarang’s government has goodwill on planning and managing toward the Lawangsewubuilding because of the terribly condition of it (there is a lot of damaged because of a lot of exhibition weretook place in that building). One of the plans was about using it as Semarang Tourism and CultureDepartment, Semarang Centre of Tourism Information, Centre of Planning and Development Information ofThe City of Semarang.Recently there are some creative and innovative ideas appears to utilize the old historical buildings. Itmeans that now our people are understood about the significance of ‘the mute witness’ of our city’s history.Let us together make Semarang as the greatest city. For me the great city is the city which has a past,present and future. The great city always be an ideal city for all of us.

Abstract

Urban areas in Indonesia have tended to grow with little control or order in recent years, and this problemincludes the problem of modern markets. The emergence of modern market centers in Indonesia has given anew color to commerce activities. Opinions pro and contra have appeared about the emergence of thesecommercial centers. There are the various interests and needs of the actors such as investors, society, andgovernment in the emergence of malls, plazas, hypermarts, and groceries. The interests focus on the need toimprove tax revenue, regional compensation, inclusion of employees, improvement of trade, and the fulfillmentof people living standbards. Recently, the fast-growing modern markets have caused many controversies.However, government policies and decisions still support the emergence of such modern trade centers. Thesemodern markets compete with traditional markets. Although the traditional markets have their own marketsegments, modern markets should not allowed to wipe out them out. Based on these reasons, therefore, thegovernment should make strict, fair, and neutral regional policies (regional regulation) such as zoning rule andurban planning concepts for upcoming 50 years. Moreover, the government should improve the role oforganizers and urban planners as the managers, and enrich the market with pluralistic and comprehensiveconcepts sustainable development and social participation, something which is often neglected in urbanplanning.
