"Tour The Poor Urban Villages"
Jakarta is known for its shining, sky-high skyscrapers, vibrant nightlife and great food and coffee. However, like most developing cities in the world, it also faces issues related to poverty. Ronny Poluan, a social activist and documentary filmmaker, organizes tours through the slums that exist within the bustling and rich landscape of the city. His aim is to bring awareness among the locals and tourists alike of the hardships faced by the slum dwellers and do his bit in raising funds for their food, housing, and children's education. Most of the tour fees are diverted towards this cause. Five tours are available, namely, Minima, Social Humanity, Ciliwung, Kampong, and Maxima. Each begins at a meeting place mentioned on the website, and takes you through the different slums where you can understand local history, present issues as well as interact directly with the residents.
