He disclosed, the vacancy is addressed to drivers
who want to be trained and willing to be sent to Tegal, Central Java. And then they will undergo a training. The city administration also already committed with Djakarta Transportation Bus Company (PPD) regarding additional bus about 600 fleets.
“So for you drivers, please send your application. We’ll train you to be a good driver then until you get PPD certificate,” he expressed.
