Rukun Tetengga /Rukun Warga

Jakarta is a special case of a locality because it is an adminstrative division of level 1
called Province (Provinsi).
The acronym RT/RW stands for Rukun Tetengga / Rukun Warga. In address only ‘RT’followed with two numbers separated with slash (ex. RT 01/001) is used. This is toidentify areas of neighborhood groups/citizen groups that do not have administrativepower but were created to support administrative functions of sub-districts.
