According to the information from the Proposal sent, out of a total of 50 floors, there were 10 floors of the building that were empty. Previously the 10 floors were rented by a Korean company.

According to the company's procedures, every offer is in accordance with the criteria, the next stage is to carry out direct inspection to the field.

Idris' brother as the company's leader assigned Ustadz Hanafi and Princess Dayang Mariam to "check directly" the condition of the building.

But because Putri Dayang Mariam is in business in Tunisia, the inspection task is only entrusted to Ustadz Hanafi.

When Ustadz Hanafi arrived at the site, in the lobby of the building was waiting for Hafsah who was accompanied by his father Haji Ibrahim. After a brief stale, the three of them immediately took the elevator to the location offered.

The floors of the building offered are on floors 41 to 50. During the inspection Haji Ibrahim spoke more, while Hafsah occasionally commented if his father had a mistake in giving data.

"Sir Haji, if 10 floors is too big, we only need 5 floors" said Ustadz Hanafi while walking around to see the condition of the building.

"Ohhh.. no matter ustadz, 5 floors are also allowed" replied Haji Ibrahim to confirm.

After inspection by looking at the condition and several facilities of the building, Ustadz Hanafi invited Haji Ibrahim to the 25th floor. On this floor, specially used for shopping and dining.

They stopped by a restaurant called "Warung Hafsah the son of Betawi". After ordering food, Hafsah appears to go to the kitchen restaurant to help prepare the ordered food.

"This pesto belongs to Hafsah" said Haji Ibrahim

"Now the branch has 15 seeds, last opened in the Kemang area" said Haji Ibrahim added.

"Well, you can also open a branch in the Apartment Building where I live" said Ustadz Hanafi.

"It could be Ustadz" Haji Ibrahim said with a smile.

"Sir Haji, related to the building offer later try to talk first with our team and leadership" said Ustadz Hanafi seriously.

"And if our company agrees, it is likely to be on the 46th to the 50th floors, where right on the roof we will build the Fly Car landing site" Ustadz Hanafi added.

"May. may.." said Haji Ibrahim commenting on Ustadz Hanafi's request.

When the food order came, Ustadz Hanafi accompanied Haji Ibrahim along with his son Hafsah, ate the food served.

Warung Hafsah Betawi's children, provide a variety of typical cuisine Nusantara. Ustadz Hanafi ordered soto betawi which is the mainstay of the restaurant.

While eating, Haji Ibrahim told me about the origin of Kuningan area.

According to Haji Ibrahim, the origin of Kuningan area in Jakarta cannot be separated from the history of Kuningan region in West Java.

In this case related to a character named Dipati Ewangga. Dipati Ewangga was the commander of the Kuningan army.

When Demak and Cirebon forces attacked Sunda Kalapa around 1527, Kuningan troops were included in the attack and led directly by Dipati Ewangga.

In the end Sunda Kalapa could be conquered and then changed its name to Jayakarta. Jayakarta is what is now the city of Jakarta.

Dipati Ewangga and a number of his troops, then chose to live south of Jayakarta.

In the Kuningan area of Jakarta, there is still a tomb known as the tomb of Prince Kuningan.

It is likely that this tomb is the tomb of Dipati Ewangga or also referred to as the Duke of Cangkuang.
