fX Sudirman previously known as Lifestyle X'nter (fX) is a shopping mall in Sudirman, South Jakarta. The mall is spread across the first eight floors of the building, and includes fashion, food, beauty, entertainment and business meeting facilities.〔 The building also contains apartments above the mall level 8, including hotel accommodation by Harris Hotel.〔〔 The tenth floor contains a gym, pool and tennis court. On November 2008 the building received a bomb threat sent to Indonesian police SMS number 1717, U.S. Embassy and Australian Embassy.〔 == History == fX Sudirman was first established and officially open on February 2006 as Sudirman Place by PT Aneka Bina Lestari who manages it with a concept that melds family mall and boutique mall.〔 Although there were already two big malls (Senayan City and Plaza Senayan) close to the area, the owner was confident that the mall going to be very successful considering its strategic location, being easily reached from patrons arriving from several direction.〔 When it was first established, around a hundred tenants agreed to open in the new mall, however less than ten tenants opened at the launch, namely Nichols Edward, Bali Deli, Zuma, and Starbucks.〔 Most of the tenants cancelled their agreement to open in the mall, or closed soon after opening because the mall suffered from a lack of visitors.〔 According to Bagus Y. Prastowo, GM Advertising and Promotion FX Plaza, the family mall concept with 100 tenants wouldn't work because its size (30 thousand m2) was as too small compared to the other malls close by with 150 thousand m2 space,〔 Sudirman Place officially closed on November 2006.〔 The building management was then taken over by PT Plaza Lifestyle Prima (Group PT Plaza Indonesia Realty Tbk/PIR) who saw potential based on its location, provided it could be positioned in the market as complimentary to the malls nearby. After three months comparative study, a further six months was taken to create the new concept for the mall.〔〔 The new management uses overseas building designer DENTON CORKER MARSHALL and its architect Budiman (Principal Architect), the same company who designed Plaza eX.〔 After actively promoting it creatively and intensively, Henny Udi Marketing Director from PT Plaza Lifestyle Prima as the sister company of Plaza Indonesia Realty (PIR) manages to increase tenant occupancy rate from 25 percent to 97 percent.〔 It is reopened on July 2008 as fX Plaza.〔 The previous tenants were encouraged to stay with one condition that they should follow the "new concept", or their contracts were settled "peacefully", according to Henny Udi (Leasing Director).〔 When it is first opened, the new concept manages to attract five thousand visitors daily to the mall. The mall provided 20 Mbit/s free wifi in every floor,〔 with over 200 access points.〔〔 On June 2011, the apartment is taken over by Tauzia Hotel Management and operated its seventh hotel chain (Harris Hotel) and introduce it as "Harris Suites" inside fX Sudirman. It has 88 rooms and uses an already established facility for the apartment.〔 On July 2012, the mall celebrates four years since the reopening.〔()〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「FX Sudirman」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
