Depok Description |
|
Depok is a city in West Java, Indonesia. It is part of the Jabotabek metropolitan area. Depok has the area of 200.29 km², it has the population of 1.49 million (2005 est).
In 18 May 1696, a former VOC officer Cornelis Chastelein bought the land that forms today's Depok. It is believed that, prior to his death, Cornelis has written a will that freed the slaves of Depok and gave them pieces of his land, therefore converting slaves into landlords.
In 1871, the Dutch government allowed Depok to form its own government and president. The ruling was no longer stood after 1952, where the Depok presidency ceded its control of Depok to the Indonesian government except for a few areas.
In March 1982 Depok was reclassified as an administrative city, and in 1999, as a city.
