Lonely Planet review

To the southwest of Lapangan Banteng is Gedung Pancasila, southeast of Lapangan Banteng, which is an imposing neoclassical building built in 1830 as the Dutch army commander's residence. It later became the meeting hall of the Volksraad (People's Council), but is best known as the place where Soekarno made his famous Pancasila speech in 1945, laying the foundation for Indonesia's constitution.
