JAKARTA - President Director of PT Jakarta Propertindo (Jakpro) Iwan Takwin said that there was already one state-owned enterprise (BUMN) stating its readiness to sponsor Formula E 2023.

This is different from last year. Where, when Anies Baswedan was still the Governor of DKI Jakarta, no SOEs were interested in sponsoring the electric car race.

A regional-owned company that is said to be interested in being one of the sponsors of Formula E is the State Electricity Company (PLN). However, there is no certainty about the role of PLN in the electric car race. This was revealed by Iwan in the working meeting of Commission B of the DKI Jakarta DPRD.

"We are intensely communicating with PLN because it is very directly related to this (electric car). PLN from the Jakarta area is ready to support. We are communicating how PLN is involved in Formula E," said Iwan at the DKI Jakarta DPRD Building, Tuesday, April 4.

The process of educating race sponsors, continued Iwan, is still ongoing. He said, there have been a number of parties who have expressed interest in participating in financing the Formula E event this year, although Iwan admitted that he could not be disclosed.

"Regarding sponsorships, some have sent and have fixed will be involved. We will announce later. On the one hand, we are also discussing but one-time sponsorship packages for market sounding to private corporations interested in Formula E," explained Iwan.

Previously, Member of the Steering Committee (SC) or the 2023 Formula E Jakarta Steering Committee Ahmad Sahroni views that this year's race will run more smoothly and will not encounter many problems.

Because, according to Sahroni, the electric car race which will be held on June 3 and 4, or after Anies Baswedan no longer serves as Governor of DKI, has been separated from political ties.

Unlike Formula E in 2022 when Sahroni served as Chairman of the Organizing Committee (OC) or the Implementing Committee. Where, in his planning there was a lot of political attraction between Anies Baswedan and those who had different political attitudes with him.

"Regarding Formula E 2023, it will definitely be smoother. There will be no more politics. It will be finished in my era (in 2022)," Sahroni said at a press conference in Ancol, North Jakarta, Tuesday, February 28.

In fact, according to Sahroni, this year's electric car racing event will be easier to get sponsors, especially from BUMN. When Anies was still the Governor of DKI, no SOEs were interested in sponsoring Formula E.

"I'm sure Jakpro and his team will do something different in the 2023 event and this is lighter. Hopefully SOEs will also sponsor. We really hope because there are no more politics, right. We hope that in the 2023 era there will be full support from the government to succeed Formula E," said Sahroni.
