The panels sought to interrogate the idea of Southeast Asian cities as 'exemplary' urban centres - looking at the impacts and dislocations that emerge from urban planning initatives that seek to create modern, ordered urban spaces and lifestyles.

Reni Suwarso and Chusnul Mar鈥檌yah each gave presentations on the research progression of the UI project members. A number of research students who have been assisting on the project were also in attendance. Jakarta-based anthropologist Alip Purnomo delivered an intervention based on his own experiences of living in a new social housing development in the city. Further, the experienced urban planner Dr Hendro Sangkoyo addressed the meeting by giving an overview of the history and present status of evictions in Jakarta. The discussion among participants then moved on to situating the Jakarta evictions regime in relation to theoretical debates as well as in relation to the broader global context of evictions.
