During 2010 to 2015, the property's 62 billionaires grew 44 percent, or more than half a trillion dollars to 1.76 trillion dollars, or about Rp 24 464 trillion (exchange rate of Rp 13,900 per US dollar).
While 3.6 billion people in the world decreased by 41 percent property value.
Nearly half the people are super rich are from the United States, 17 from Europe, and the rest from various other countries such as China, Brazil, Mexico, Japan and Saudi Arabia.
