“ If the problem is not finished, the construction will be cancelled ,” said Director of PT MRT, Dono Boestami at City Hall, Thursday (8/4).
Nevertheless, the possibility of two MRT stations construction is small. Considering, both project locations are in the last option.
“We'll re-design the station if the land acquisition is not solved,” he uttered.
Boestami added in such lands, his side had a plan to build an entrance gate of MRT station.
“Perhaps, we will be reset,” he uttered.
Meanwhile, Head of Jakarta Financial and Asset Management Board (BPKAD), Heru Budi Hartono went on the say that residents living near Jalan Cipete Raya and Jalan Haji Nawi demanded land price beyond the tax value of the property (NJOP).
“They put up the price over Rp 100 million per square meter, whereas its land price is lower than such price,” he finished.
