Bandung, West Java (ANTARA News) - Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Hatta Radjasa said all development efforts in Indonesia must be carried out based on a green concept to balance economic growth with environmental conservation.

"Development efforts in Indonesia must implement the Green Development or Green Economy concepts which are in essence friendliness to the environment," he said after attending the topping off of Grand Royal Panghegar Apartment on Jalan Merdeka here on Saturday.

He said Indonesia`s development efforts are facing three big challenges, namely food and energy sufficiency and provision of efficient energy supplies.

"Therefore, the Green Economy concept is suitable for application in Indonesia`s development projects," he said.

Hatta on the occasion expressed his appreciation to the Grand Royal Pangegar owner for having implemented the Green Economy concept.

"I will report it to Pak SBY (Mr Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, the President)," he said.

The ceremony was also attended by the president director of PT Panghegar Group, Cecep Rusmana, and West Java governor Ahmad Heryawan.

The structural construction of the 21-floor apartment project since January 2009 has now reached the highest floor.

Bandung mayor Dada Rosada meanwhile said in his speech on the occasion he hoped the Grand Royal Panghegar Apartment would become an important public notice about the presence of apartments in the city.

He said Bandung, the capital of West Java province, still needs a lot of apartments. "The city administration itself plans to develop flats in 10 locations," he said.

On the occasion the Grand Royal Panghegar handed over 1,000 raintree saplings to the city administration to help regreen the city.
