He cited station which will be built in Tanah Abang, Senayan City and Dukuh Atas on the west side, likewise with budgeting.
Besides design, Jokowi also asked PT JM to be able to make the proof, where they have the capital which is one of the requirements that was prompted by Jakarta Provincial Government as guarantee.
