"There are some units have yet to remit the funds and I hope they could do it in the last monitoring on January 15," he hoped.

"The fund has reached 73 percent so far, and is hoped able to achieve our target. By so, East Jakarta PMI will grab a title as the most fundraisers," stated Kusnoto when he led the fund-month monitoring of the PMI implementation, in a room of East Jakarta Mayor Office.
