JAKARTA:
Hundreds of people in central Jakarta gathered on Sunday night (May 10) to
say their goodbyes to Indonesia’s first McDonald’s outlet, in what some have
said was a potential violation of COVID-19 restrictions. Sarinah, a state-owned
shopping centre where the flagship outlet was located, announced last week that
the whole building would undergo renovation starting next month.
The shopping
centre is also adjusting its retail mix in favour of Indonesian franchises
as well as small and medium enterprises when the renovation is completed in
2021. After nearly 30 years in business, the McDonald’s outlet at the
Sarinah shopping centre closed its doors at 10.05pm on Sunday.
Videos and
photos circulating on social media showed several hundred people
flocking to the outlet’s parking lot to watch employees close the
shop for the last time. In one video, the workers were seen bowing to the
cheering crowd before a man was heard shouting “McDonald’s Sarinah". McDonald’s
Indonesia also live-streamed the store’s closing on its Instagram account.
Since
McDonald's announced the closure of the outlet on May 8, Indonesians
have been tweeting their fond memories of the restaurant, loved for being
a hangout that operated round the clock. “It is a place
for late-night chit-chat, early morning meet up with friends ... (A place)
to chill out when electricity is out at my rented room, a restaurant visited on
the first day of Idul Fitri,” Twitter user Santy Tobing said in response to the
announcement. “Too many fond memories at McD Sarinah. Thank you and sayonara.”
The outlet,
which first opened on Feb 23, 1991, was located on the busy Thamrin
street, at the heart of Jakarta where government offices and multinational
companies are located. (adapted from www.channelnewsasia.com)
