South Jakarta Mayor, Marullah Matali, held silaturahmi along with media crews. It was also held in the framework of his introduction that took office since July 5 replacing Tri Kurniadi.

I consider this media to be the most important pillar of development anywhere

On that occasion, Marullah wanted to make good synergy with the mass media crews in order to succeed the city development.

"I consider this media to be the most important pillar of development anywhere. They are also an integral part of development," he expressed, Tuesday (7/17).

He admitted that he was more than happy to directly interact with media crews rather than conduct the interview via telephone.

"If it is via telephone, this is worried there will be missed or misunderstanding information. So it's better to meet in person," he exclaimed.

In the meeting, he also invited SKPD heads. In future, silaturahmi between SKPD and mass media was hoped to be realized better.
