Jakarta (ANTARA) - Utilization of technology and data is the primary key to realizing a smart city ecosystem, Regional General Service Head at the Jakarta Provincial Government's Jakarta Smart City Yudhistira Nugraha stated.

"When it comes to smart city, it is not just about a city with technology," Nugraha noted at an online seminar quoted on Friday.

"Rather, it is a step to build a technology system through collaboration or involvement of all elements, with the government as the collaborator and the people as co-creators," he elaborated.

Through this, the public actively participates in solving problems within their cities, he affirmed.

Jakarta Smart City conducts government service digitalization innovation through data gathering, exchange, and synchronization in the Master Data Management.

"Moreover, providing the Application Program Interface (API) service that is integrated with the website platform (Jakarta.go.id) and application (Jakarta Kini -JAKI)," Nugraha stated.

JAKI is a one-stop service platform with integrated digital public service that is capable of catering to the requirements of Jakarta's residents throughout their lifetime.

This application utilizes the Jakarta digital ID as the residents' account based on the Identity Card Number (NIK), Family Card (KK), and various sources of data.

With the vision of building a transformative and integrated information technology service, the Jakarta provincial government continues to transform and build a well-functioning digital ecosystem for the people and the business world, he remarked.

His group emphasized that every life has value and everybody deserves a decent living.
