During the visit, the importance of area management was emphasized as a key approach to enhancing the overall value of districts and achieving well-balanced urban development that delivers broad benefits, in order to create more comfortable urban and pedestrian spaces in Indonesia and Jakarta, where rapid population concentration and urbanization are progressing. In area management, which requires collaboration among multiple private-sector entities and the effective utilization of public land, OC Global will draw on its experience in public infrastructure development and work in cooperation with local partners, as well as Japanese government agencies and private-sector stakeholders, to contribute to the realization of TOD and more livable urban spaces in Indonesia.

PT MRT Jakarta is a public enterprise operating the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta. It has been designated as the master developer for TOD along the MRT lines under a Jakarta Governor’s Decree.

Since July 2022, OC Global has signed memoranda of understanding on multiple occasions with PT MRT Jakarta concerning a strategic partnership for business creation related to TOD in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta. Most recently, on November 7, 2025, OC Global newly concluded a memorandum of understanding on business cooperation with PT MRT Jakarta, which also includes collaboration on TOD initiatives in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta.

As a trusted partner in promoting TOD led by PT MRT Jakarta, OC Global remains committed to contributing to the development of Indonesia.
