All is ready to be auctioned and will take one month. Yet it should be postdated while waiting 2015 budget disbursement

"All is ready to be auctioned and will take one month. Yet it should be postdated while waiting 2015 budget disbursement," told Head of South Jakarta Goods and Services Procurement Unit (ULP), Togu Siagian, Thursday (3/12).

Slipi Jaya Market Needs to Be Renovated

According to Siagian, the city administration had filed a budget of Rp 3 billion last year for renovation, but it only approved Rp 1 billion thus it should be done gradually. "If Rp 3 billion was approved, the school needs would be realized in the near future," he uttered.

He furthered, if 2015 budget is disbursed on time, the renovation will be continued soon. "We're still waiting for budget disbursement," he hoped.

Based on beritajakarta.com observations, thus far, three schools are still in under renovation process, but it had to be stopped. They are State SMA 55 Duren Tiga, SD 07 Kalibata Timur, and SMP 238 Duren Tiga.
