Ragunan also
have defiency and advantages, still a lot of facilities to be fixed.
Ticket price of
ragunan is cheap, and made people want to visit ragunan, it is easy to find,
and a spacious garden area for relaxing. Naturally, if the Ragunan zoo became
favorite selection weekends Jakarta citizens. But behind it, there are still
some shortcomings in terms of management and facilities.
First, we do
not know clearly where the animal enclosures and animal species of what is
there. So that visitors prefer to picnic with the family of the around looking
at the animals. Probably better, visitors are given a clear map where the
location of the animal enclosures as well as details of existing animals, then
conditioned special track for those who want to get around seeing all the
animals there. As well as provide a special area for visitors who just a picnic
and enjoy the atmosphere of the zoo
Too many
visitors it would have been, but on the other hand will surely make comfort
reduced. Plus the state of the animal will be stressed. It's better if every
day of her visitors restricted in accordance with the existing area.
The more
visitors, the security was decreased. Many cases of children and valuables
missing. This is important because it involves the community at large. Should
the manager put the security at some point the crowd prone.
Garbage also
always be problems, some of which do a picnic by the lazy and deliberately
discard under the tree. It concerns the awareness of visitors who are less and
less of its trash. This certainly disturb eyesight, but if there surely we
intend to eliminate fatigue after a long week.
Then the toilet
facilities and places of worship of Muslims is very minimal and need special
handling.
And the last,
food stalls provided many put false prices. So the price does not match the
prices on the menu and when we paid.
