South Jakarta Mayor Takes Public Transportation to His OfficeThe first activity he attended was the Regional Leadership Conference of Aisyiyah Jakarta at Balairung Hotel.
"I took public transportation today. I have a schedule at Aisyiyah Muhammadiyah at Balairung Hotel and then continuing to DPR for a hearing," he explained, Wednesday (4/30).
He added this aimed at parsing congestion and emissions in Jakarta. As a leader, he wanted to set an example for all civil servants to implement this policy.
He was even committed to improving the quality and connectivity of public transport in Jakarta. One of the ways is by adding several new Transjabodetabek routes, such as Blok M-Alam Sutera and five other routes that will connect Jakarta with West Java and Banten.
"There will be five more that we will open. Three in West Java, two in Banten," he explained.
He added the number of civil servants in Jakarta is quite large, reaching 45,000 people. With the implementation of this policy, he is confident that it can make a significant contribution to reducing traffic congestion in Jakarta.
"The impact for us is gradually reducing what is called congestion, emissions, and so on," he added.
