Basuki to Check 2015 KHL's Formula
He stated the amount of KHL 2015 has been determined amounted to Rp 2.98 million. The value is a base for UMP calculation next year. Such calculation method has been used since 2012. "So we decide, it's good if it could be better than PP," he expressed.
He ensures UMP value next year will be higher than KHL. It is predictably above Rp 3 million. "It's definitely increased, could be Rp 3.1 million as I see," he disclosed.
The determination of UMP itself should be through meeting of Remunerating Board consisting of 3 elements. They are government, labors, and entrepreneurs. The discussion meeting itself will be held in the near future.
