Sultan Abis, Raffi Ahmad Creates a Zoo for Rayyanza and Rafathar's Gift

Kapanlagi.com - Raffi Ahmad continues to expand his business ventures. This time, Nagita Slavina's husband plans to create a zoo called Rans Carnaval City Zoo. Not just any zoo, Raffi has prepared a 2.6-hectare land in the Pantai Indah Kapuk area of Jakarta as the location for his zoo.

Raffi stated that the location of Rans Carnaval City Zoo is right across from the location of Rans Sportainment, which is currently under construction.

"(This zoo) was inspired after Nagita gave birth to Rayyanza. I really want us to have the same spirit to have a place where our family can gather together in a healthy and fun environment," said Raffi Ahmad during the groundbreaking ceremony of Rans Carnaval Zoo in Pantai Indah Kapuk, Jakarta, on Friday (17/12/2021).

1. For Rayyanza & Rafathar

Raffi said that the zoo was presented as a gift from him to his two sons.

"So this is a gift from me to Rayyanza and Rafathar. Hopefully with this, we can show empathy towards animals because they are also creatures of Allah that we should love," said Raffi Ahmad.

2. 32 Animals & Continuously Growing

Rans Carnaval City Zoo, which is planned to be similar to the Bronx Zoo in New York, will be filled with various animals from both domestic and foreign sources, as well as various amusement rides.

"There will be around 32 animals and it will continue to grow. The animals include wild ones such as tigers, bears, wolves, and cute ones like birds, Pikachu, Shaun the Sheep, and the iconic penguins," said Claudia, director of Rans Carnaval City Zoo.

3. Opened in 2022

According to business partner Raffi Ahmad, Rudi Salim, Rans Carnaval City Zoo is estimated to be officially opened in 2022.

"The plan is to open no later than December next year. Hopefully, it can be opened in June or July," said Rudi Salim.

4. Creating a Traveling Carnival

In addition to creating a zoo in the city center, Raffi and Rudi Salim also have big plans for the future.

"We also plan to create Rans Carnaval Jungle Zoo, which is three times larger than this, and there will be Rans Carnival Exhibition that will appear in major cities in Indonesia with a traveling concept. So this is a new lifestyle business developed by Rans Entertainment," said Rudi Salim.
