"Sad, The Condition of the Factory Owned by the President's Child Built with a Cost of US$ 1 Billion"

"Dream - Karawang Regency, which was once known as the rice barn, has now transformed its face into an industrial area. In fact, Karawang is referred to as the region with the largest industrial area in Southeast Asia. Therefore, although nicknamed the Rice Barn City, many large factories have been established in this area."

"One of them is the car factory owned by the son of Indonesia's 2nd President Soeharto, Tommy Soeharto. He once established a factory in the city that borders Purwakarta."

Interestingly, it turns out that the first four-wheeled vehicle created in Indonesia was not ESEMKA, but the Timor car. The name Timor itself is an abbreviation of Teknologi Industri Mobil Rakyat.

"Established in 1996"

The text translated to English while preserving the HTML tags is: "The Timor car company was founded by Tommy Soeharto. The Timor car is referred to as the first four-wheeled vehicle made in Indonesia. Tommy Soeharto established this car factory in 1996 under the name PT Timor Putra Nasional."

The factory was established in the Mandala industrial area owned by Tommy Soeharto. The industrial area is located in the Cikampek district, Karawang, West Java.

The translation of "Habis 1 Miliar Dolar AS" to English is "Spent 1 Billion US Dollars".

"Standing on an area of 124 hectares, the construction of this car factory cost US$1 billion."

The translation of "Terjerat Utang Negara" to English is "Caught in National Debt".

"However, after Soeharto stepped down, this factory ceased operations because it was seized by the state in 2000. This was due to Tommy Soeharto being embroiled in the BLBI case and having to repay debts to the state."

"Now, the Timor car factory in the Mandala industrial area has become an abandoned building in West Java."

The Mandala industrial area is now even used as an alternative route from Karawang to Purwakarta. The paved road, which is wide enough, attracts people to pass through this area.

"There are no signs of life at all in this area, apart from the occasional passing motorist. The right and left sides of the paved road are now overgrown with grass and wild trees, with no street lighting whatsoever."

"So you can imagine how scary and frightening this alternative route is at night. Moreover, this alternative route from Karawang to Purwakarta must pass through a small road that can only be traversed by motorcycles."

The condition of the road is no longer suitable because the asphalt is peeling, resulting in many holes here and there.
