Jakarta, (Antara Sumbar) - Renovation of the Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) main stadium in Jakarta, Indonesia, as one of the venues for the 2018 Asian Games, has reached 90 percent completion or is on schedule, a minister stated.
Coordinating Human Development and Culture Minister Puan Maharani made the statement while reviewing the renovation project here on Friday.
"Hopefully, by November 2017, preparations for all venues for the 2018 Asian Games would be completed," the minister stated.
