History and planning

Portrait of Rasuna Said

Jalan Rasuna Said was a relatively new thoroughfare in Jakarta, having been planned during the early 1970s, when the Indonesian economy began a period of sustained high economic growth as a result of oil export revenue during the 1973 global energy crisis. [2] Construction commenced in 1973, launched by Public Works and Electricity Minister Sutami. [3] Planners had originally intended to extend Jalan HOS Cokroaminoto in Menteng to the south to meet Jalan Gatot Subroto. In this plan, the south end of Jalan Rasuna Said would be connected to Jalan Gatot Subroto via a partial cloverleaf interchange. [4] This cloverleaf interchange plan was not implemented.

Jalan Rasuna Said was completed by 1979. Its first buildings included Gelanggang Soemantri Brojonegoro Sports Complex (1974), [5] Gedung Wanita (demolished, now Gama Tower), and Setiabudi Building complex.

The area southwest of Jalan Kuningan was planned as the Future Kuningan Kompleks to contain a complex of embassies. This complex was developed as Mega Kuningan, one of the most expensive areas in Jakarta and home to the embassies of Hungary, Switzerland, the Netherlands, India, Singapore and Poland. [4]

In the 1990s, Jalan Professor Dr. Satrio and Jalan Casablanca would extend[ clarification needed ] from Jalan Kyai Haji Mas Mansyur through to Tebet, passing Jalan Rasuna Said in the middle via an underpass. In the 2010s, a flyover was constructed to ease congestion. [4]

Administrative villages

The road crosses seven administrative villages of Jakarta:

There is an access point towards Mega Kuningan from the road. This road houses many important buildings, such as the Corruption Eradication Commission, Ministry of Health and foreign embassies.
