Average high end residential property prices in eight key markets in the region Asia Pacific rose by 1% in the first quarter of 2012 compared with the last three months of 2011, according to the latest index from Jones Lang LaSalle.
Hong Kong, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Jakarta showed increases in the first quarter, Beijing, Shanghai and Singapore showed declines whilst Mumbai was stable.
Jakarta was up 4.3% in the first quarter of this year and in the twelve months to the end of March 2012, delivered the strongest price performance among the monitored markets, with growth of about 16%.
After declining over the past six months, luxury residential prices in Hong Kong showed initial signs of stabilizing, up 1.4% quarter on quarter, largely due to low interest rates and more active mortgage lending by banks.
Average prices in Singapore’s luxury prime market declined by 2% quarter on quarter after remaining stable for six consecutive quarters on the back of on going rental adjustment.
Capital values for luxury apartments in Shanghai fell by 1.2% quarter on quarter, while average prices in Beijing fell by 2.3% as tightening policies remain in place and sales volumes are down in the China Tier I markets.
Kuala Lumpur saw high end capital values up by 6.9% in the first quarter due to some additions to its stock. Capital values would have been largely stable ignoring the change to stock.
‘The first quarter increase is a continuation of a trend we have witnessed over the last 18 to 24 months in the Indonesian residential market, where price increases have been consistently pushed through by developers on the strength of robust demand levels,’ said Todd Lauchlan, country head for Jones Lang LaSalle Indonesia.
‘Demand is being driven by significantly increased affordability, and with record low interest rates, high consumer confidence levels and strong income growth we expect to continue to witness the rise of the Indonesian middle class,’ he added.

Setelah dua turnya yang sukses di Yogyakarta, Surabaya, Denpasar, Jakarta dan Ambon tahun 2011 lalu, Trio « French Stories » akhirnya kembali lagi ke Indonesia dan menjadi salah satu pengisi acara festival Printemps Français 2012. Kali ini mereka tampil untuk sebuah konser istimewa yang bertempat di Universitas Islam Negeri Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta dalam rangka Hari Bahasa Prancis dan peresmian kerja sama baru antara IFI dan UIN Jakarta, lokasi dimana IFI akan membuka cabang barunya pada bulan September 2012 nanti.
Pianis dan komposer Cédric Hanriot adalah seorang pengajar yang secara aktif memberikan masterclass dan klinik musik di Eropa, Amerika Utara dan Asia. Bersamaan dengan proyek French Stories-nya, ia sudah pernah bermain dan rekaman bersama raksasa-raksasa jazz seperti Deedee Bridgewater, Cindy Blackman dan Joe Lovano.
Artis jenius ini mengerjakan semua hal. Ia menulis lagu, mengaransemen, memproduksi, memprogram desain suara untuk berbagai proyek musik dalam varian musik yang juga kaya: elektro, pop, RnB, hip hop, blues, jazz, latin, musik-musik Prancis, musik dunia, musik untuk permainan video, video/iklan/jingle.
Dibantu oleh Bertrand Beruard dan Jean-Baptiste Pinet, lewat albumnya « French Stories », ia menyuguhkan kepada kita remake lagu-lagu jazz Prancis yang terkenal, serta kumpulan lagu karya-karyanya sendiri.

Taman Mini Indonesia Indah
Catch a quick glimpse of the 27 provinces of Indonesia by visiting this beautiful "Indonesian in Miniature" Park. Open in 1975, this unique park was the creation of the late Ibu Tien, the former President Soeharto's wife. A man made lake representing a miniature version of the major islands of the archipelago is placed as the major attraction of the park. Thus, around the lake area, 27 traditional-style houses from each respective province serve as a background to the displays of traditional music, dance and ethnic costumes and customs.
The park also feature an Imax theatre, Keong Mas (golden snail), which shows films on Indonesia's islands and diverse culture. There are also several museums worth visiting covering contemporary arts and crafts, philately, transportation, the Asmat culture and many more. In 1998, the paerk opened an opera house named Teater Tanah Airku. The latest addition to the park is an aviary, hosting more than 160 species of Indonesia's rarest birds.

STARWOOD HOTELS & RESORTS TO OPEN 40 NEW HOTELS IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS
Starwood Lengthens Lead in MENA with 60% Portfolio Growth
Adding More than 13,000 Rooms by 2017
Underscoring the Importance of the Region, Starwood Hosts
Conference in Dubai with Company’s Top 100 Global Leaders
DUBAI – May 2012 – Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:HOT) is strengthening its position as the leading hotel operator in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region with an existing portfolio of nearly 70 hotels and a pipeline of 40 new hotels. This growth, primarily in the luxury and upper-upscale segments, represents an increase of nearly 60% over the next five years. In the past 18 months, Starwood has debuted six new hotels throughout MENA and momentum continues in the region where the company has recently inked deals for 10 additional hotels.
“Despite economic and political uncertainty in parts of the region, Starwood continues to see demand for growth of all of our brands across the Middle East and North Africa,” said Frits van Paasschen, President and CEO, Starwood Hotels & Resorts. “MENA is key to Starwood’s global expansion strategy, representing our second largest growth market after China. When you consider that the region has 35 metropolitan areas with a population of over one million, and many with a wealthy middle class, there’s huge long-term potential for internationally-branded luxury and upper-upscale hotels.”
Starwood Expands MENA Footprint
With the openings of six new hotels under five of the company’s unique and compelling lifestyle brands, Starwood has marked a number of key milestones in MENA over the past 18 months, including:
• The launch of its ultra-luxury St. Regis brand in the region with the opening of The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort in Abu Dhabi. This was followed by the recent opening of The St. Regis Doha, marking the brand’s debut in Qatar. Later this year, Starwood will open yet another luxurious St. Regis hotel on Abu Dhabi’s vibrant Corniche, making it the only city in the world to boast two St. Regis hotels.
• The first Westin hotel in Abu Dhabi with The Westin Abu Dhabi Golf Resort & Spa.
• The debut of Le Méridien in Algeria with the new Le Méridien Oran, designed by Rockwell Group Europe.
Starwood continues its rapid growth in 2012 with further expansion in key markets, including Saudi Arabia where the company will debut two hotels later this year: the Sheraton Medina and Four Points by Sheraton Medina. Both hotels combined will add nearly 500 rooms to the Holy City and increase Starwood’s portfolio to 12 hotels in the country.
“Thanks to Starwood’s long history in the region, which dates back to the opening of Sheraton Kuwait Hotel & Towers in 1966, the company is well positioned to take full advantage of growth,” said Roeland Vos, President of Starwood Hotels & Resorts, Europe, Africa & Middle East. “MENA continues to evolve as an international business and leisure travel hub. With the number of tourists traveling to the region expected to double from nearly 80 million last year to 195 million by 2030, MENA is one of the most attractive growth markets in the world.”
Starwood Signs 10 New Hotel Deals
With more than 70% of the world’s economic growth coming from fast-growing markets over the next few years, Starwood is focused on expansion in developing markets such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Algeria as well as key emerging markets including Iraq, Tajikistan and Pakistan. As part of this strategy, Starwood has recently confirmed 10 hotel projects in the region:
• Four new hotels in Dubai, including three hotels on Sheik Zayed Road under the company’s St. Regis, W Hotels and Westin brands and a second W Hotel in Dubai on The Palm Jumeirah. Together, these four properties will add nearly 1,900 rooms to Dubai by 2017. This further solidifies Starwood’s position as the leading hotel operator in Dubai, where the company currently has 15 hotels under five of its brands, representing the largest concentration of Starwood hotels in a single city outside of New York.
• The launch of the Aloft brand in the emirate of Sharjah, where the company will open a 270-room Aloft hotel in 2015, following the successful debut of Aloft Abu Dhabi in 2009. Starwood will mark its official debut in Sharjah next year with the opening of a Sheraton and a Four Points by Sheraton hotel.
• The entry of Starwood into Tajikistan with the opening of a new Sheraton hotel in the country’s capital city of Dushanbe.
• The re-entry of Starwood into Iraq with the milestone signing of a new Sheraton hotel in Erbil. The 260-room Sheraton Erbil marks Starwood’s return to the country after 20 years and will be complemented by the recently signed 250-room Four Points by Sheraton Erbil which is due to open in 2015.
• Starwood’s fifth hotel in Algeria with the new Sheraton Annaba Hotel, where the company currently operates three hotels. Starwood will open a Four Points by Sheraton in Oran in 2014, introducing the brand to the country.
Starwood Hosts Top 100 Global Leaders in Dubai
Underscoring the importance of the region as one of Starwood’s fastest growing hotel and travel markets, the company will welcome its top 100 global executives to Dubai for its annual leadership conference May 9-11, 2012. As part of the conference, Starwood’s most senior global executives will meet with hotel owners, customers and investors and hold strategic planning sessions. This marks the first time the leadership conference takes place in the Middle East.

Rolling Stone Indonesia
Pembuka cakrawala musik elektro-rock di Transmusicales de Rennes 2008, Success berhasil menyatukan para penggemar rock dan clubber di lantai dansa. Membawakan musik rock kawin silang, kreatif dan ceria, setiap penampilan mereka menyetrum panggung. Suara gitar yang kuat dan sangat groovy, ritme drum yang mematikan, dan semua itu dikepalai oleh si hiperaktif Mister Eleganz, vokalis yang histeris serta jenius. Success merayu, mempermainkan dan menggoda. Benar-benar spektakuler di kancah musik elektro-rock, mereka takkan membiarkan para penonton diam tak peduli.
Mister Eleganz yang aristokrat dan arogan adalah pusat kekuatan band Success. Penampilannya seperti pesolek (dengan setelah jas lengkap dan pose-pose khasnya yang anggun), Mister Eleganz memiliki kemampuan bermusik yang nyaris sempurna. Mengenai eksistensi para musisi lainnya, ia berpendapat, “Kebanyakan artis sangat amat kurang bersifat arogan. Saya tidak tahan dengan para penyanyi yang gayanya terlalu sederhana.”
Ia juga membuat mitologi tentang dirinya sendiri, dengan mengklaim dirinya sebagai percampuran antara Dean Martin dan Frank Sinatra, seperti serta anak terlantar dari Patti Smith dan Tony Clifton yang lahir di Kentucket, kota pelabuhan kecil yang jaraknya 300km dari laut. Karya legendarisnya dimulai tahun 2007 dengan judul “Girls from New Orleans” yang memiliki ritme liar dan kemudian menjadi perhatian bagi banyak DJ dan produser musik di seluruh dunia. Di Prancis sendiri, Success mengisi berbagai festival musik avant-garde selama bertahun-tahun (Transmusicales Rennes, Marseille Marsatac, ...) yang kemudian memenuhi ramalan mereka sesuai namanya: sukses yang berkembang.
Album perdana mereka "Hard to come back" dipakai sebagai soundtrack “Zombieland”, sebuah film yang mencapai box office di Amerika tahun 2009. Akhir 2010, album kedua Success yang terdiri atas 5 lagu “The Secret” menjadi ruang bagi band ini untuk menunjukkan kekuatan dan energi mereka. Album ini diproduksi dan diarahkan oleh Antoine Cleavers.
“Secara musikal, saya mempunyai divisi Pander di belakang saya.” Seperti inilah cara Mister Eleganz memperkenalkan grup bandnya ke publik, grup yang terdiri atas 3 personil berasal dari Inggris seperti dirinya, dan ia juga menyempatkan bercerita kesuksesan bandnya. Ketiga personil sudah terbiasa dengan tingkah eksentrik Mister Eleganz selama wawancara atau di atas panggung, dan mereka tetap sabar ketika sang penyanyi menyudahi konsernya dengan hanya memakai pakaian dalam ataupun melompat ke penonton dengan berbagai tingkah liarnya.
Karakter jenakanya ini lahir ketika menyaksikan konser Iggy Pop di tahun 2005 di Prancis. Saat itu ia naik ke atas panggung untuk bernyanyi bersama idolanya. Keberanian dan sikapnya yang tidak terkendali ini justru membuat karakternya semakin kuat. Penonton di konser tersebut malah menjadi cemburu dan ingin juga merasakan sepanggung dengan Iggy Pop. Mister Eleganz pun berhasil menarik perhatian semua orang tanpa terkecuali.
Dengan pemimpin band yang eksentrik ini, Success lebih mirip dengan mitos rock versi Prancis. Mereka menegaskan, “Genre kami bukan elektro-rock, tapi rock dengan sentuhan elektro!” Lalu mereka menambahkan, “Success adalah sebuah band rock dimana sentuhan elektro bukan dekorasi semata. Obsesi kami adalah kekuatan.”
