In line with plans to anchor its presence in the largest economy in Southeast Asia, Frasers Hospitality Group, a division of Frasers Centrepoint Limited, will be launching Fraser Suites Kuningan in 2017. This will be the group’s fourth property launched, with another five in the pipeline, bringing its Jakarta portfolio to a total of nine by 2019.
Fraser Suites Kuningan is part of the prestigious Ciputra World 2 Jakarta, an iconic mixed-use development in the heart of Jakarta’s Golden Triangle. The luxurious 210-unit serviced residence is the newest addition to Frasers Hospitality Group’s growing footprint in the Indonesian capital, putting Frasers Hospitality Group on track to meet its target of exceeding 1,500 units in Jakarta by 2019. The group commenced operations in Jakarta with the opening of Fraser Residence Sudirman in 2011. This was followed by the recent openings of Fraser Residence Menteng in 2014 and Fraser Place Setiabudi in 2016, which have all been enjoying steady occupancy rates exceeding 75%.
Affirming its leading position in the country, Frasers Hospitality Group was recently named ÔIndonesia’s Leading Serviced Apartment Brand 2016′ by the Indonesia Travel Tourism Industry. The opening of Fraser Suites Kuningan reinforces the group’s commitment to and confidence in Indonesia’s long-term growth potential. Stronger economic growth will be supported by robust domestic demand as well as the Indonesian government’s ongoing reforms to improve the country’s infrastructure and business environment.
Mr Choe Peng Sum, Chief Executive Officer of Frasers Hospitality Group, said: ÒFrasers Hospitality has established a strong foothold in Jakarta and we are planning to strengthen our leadership position in the Indonesian capital in the year ahead. As Indonesia’s economic, cultural and political centre, Jakarta continues to be the main hub and corporate headquarters for Indonesian and multinational corporations, and remains a key market for our strategic expansion plans in Southeast Asia. The government has also made significant strides in reforming the business environment and Indonesia now ranks among the top 10 improvers in the World Bank’s Doing Business 2017: Equal Opportunity for All Report. These developments will further increase foreign investments in the country and our strategic expansion in Jakarta will cater to rising demand for quality accommodation by corporate and leisure travellers.Ó
ÒWith a strong estimated growth rate of 5.3% for 2017, Indonesia continues to be of strategic significance to the group’s global plans and we seek to further expand across key regions and secondary cities in the country such as Bali, Bandung, Medan, Surabaya and Yogyakarta. We are delighted to partner the Ciputra group to feature our Gold-Standard serviced residence in this prestigious mixed-use development complex which is an important hub for national and multinational corporations.Ó he added.
