TikTok Creator Responds to Viral Claims of Immoral Acts at Jakarta's Taman Langsat

Jakarta, Indonesia – A recent viral discussion regarding Taman Langsat in Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, has prompted a response from local TikTok creator Bang Pendi. The park, which recently extended its operating hours to 24 hours, has been subject to claims of becoming a site for immoral activities by young couples at night. In a video addressing the issue, Bang Pendi humorously dismissed the current concerns by recalling the park's historical reputation. "In the past, forget about immoral acts, people would get possessed here," he stated, referring to the park as a "haunted place." He added that with the park now brightly lit, any illicit activities would be easily spotted. He jokingly encouraged viewers to report any such sightings to public accounts. The commentary highlights the contrast between the park's past and present perceptions among locals.
