Jakarta Governor, Basuki T. Purnama targeted Light Rail Transit (LRT) groundbreaking to be started in next May. The construction will not use auction system.
We likely to start groundbreaking in April, but May is no problem
“We likely to start groundbreaking in April, but May is no problem,” he said, Thursday (3/24).
Since the construction is not using auction system, then President Regulation (Perpres) No. 98/2015 about Light Rail Transit Acceleration Integrated in Jakarta, Bogor, Depok and Bekasi needs for revision.
International-Standard for LRT Rail, Basuki SaysPerpres only gives construction to State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN), not Regional-Owned Enterprises (BUMD).
“It will be constructed by BUMD, but the regulation must be revised,” he added.
