"As said by president, the reclamation must not be controlled by private side, but the government. Our duty, that's how to optimize three interests but controlled by the state," he expressed, while visiting to D Island, North Jakarta, Wednesday (5/4).
According to Ramli, there are three interests that must be accommodated in such reclamation, namely country, society and private. The country interest is to minimize the impact on the environment, such as spatial planning managed properly, reducing flood potential, and aspects of state revenue.
