Some info on the owner of Mansion from wikipedia.....
Putra Sampoerna (Indonesian: Putera Sampurna) (born in Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia) is a Indonesian billionaire, referred to as one of the Indonesian oligarchs. In March 2005 he was listed by Forbes Magazine as the 3rd richest Indonesian and one of the richest person in the world with an estimated fortune of $1.7 billion. Sampoerna is most famous outside of Indonesia as the owner of Mansion, a

He was the owner of Sampoerna cigarettes company before he sold it to Phillip Morris for $5.4 billion. The sale made him the richest man in Indonesia with $3 billion, netting almost 2 billion US dollars, due to his majority shares at Sampoerna.
