Save Pasar Johar : Indonesian Heritage

Save Pasar Johar, the Great Achievement of Indonesian Heritage

Pasar Johar. is Indonesian tradional market building located in Semarang city, Central Java, Indonesia. It is one of Indonesian tangible heritages by a Dutch architect, Herman Thomas Karsten (1884-1945). It was planned in 1933 by him, its building process was over in 1939. Unfortunately the mayor of Semarang city would demolish this great achievement and change it into modern trading region like Mangga Dua and Pasar Tanah Abang in Jakarta . It is hot issue in Semarang currently.
All the sellers of the traditional market are being worried about and to disagree with demolishing the building. They hope the Semarang local government does not do it. The problem is just to rearrange the messy outlets, vendors and clean the surroundings, not to demolish it.

Support and donate us in making documentary film on Thomas Karsten's architectural works directed by Tonny Trimarsanto.

Pemerintah Semarang kalau membangun cari tempat yang masih kosong , bikin pelebaran kota .... jangan bongkar infrastruktur yang sudah ada, kalau mau di rehab ya di rehab saja , jangan rubah bentuk dan volumenya tapi tingkatkan fasilitas /sarana keselamatan dan sanitasinya

sangat menyentuh...

antara sejarah pasar dengan konsep modern pada jamannya... dan dengan kritik yang disampaikan melalui frame-frame film ini yang sangat kentara memposisikan pasar johar dalam kalimat tanya. bagaimana kesinambungan sejarah dengan pembangunan sekarang... jalan berlubang, tambahan kios yang semaunya, lubang-lubang ventilasi dan lubang cahaya yang nyaris tak dirawat. kritik yang terekam sangat apik.
