BANDUNG - President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) said the operation of the Jakarta-Bandung High Speed Train (KCJB) adds to the various modes of mass transportation chosen by the community.
"Yes, we will see later, the community is given many choices, the community is given many options," said President Jokowi at Padalarang Station, Bandung Regency, West Java, Monday, October 2, which was confiscated by Antara.
Jokowi said that mass transportation modes are provided by the government through various procurement schemes. Such as MRT through funding and construction cooperation from Japan.
The Light Rail Transit (LRT) was built through collaboration from PT Industri Kereta Api (INKA), PT Wijaya Karta (WIKA), to the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train built by PT Kereta Cepat Indonesia China (KCIC).
In addition to train transportation modes, said Jokowi, the government also presents a number of national road infrastructure and inter-area connecting toll roads.
"Including roads is the same. If you want to pass (the road) nationally, please go through the toll road," he said.
Jokowi said the most important thing about the transportation function for the people was that it served well and quickly. "The mass transportation function is there," he added.

Jokowi said that the government also helps finance public transportation through subsidies. For example, one unit of the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) short lane that receives subsidies from the DKI Provincial Government is Rp800 billion.
The longer the connecting route, said Jokowi, is expected to be able to move private drivers to mass public transportation.
"That's the government's function, providing services to the community with mass transportation, so not all of them ride private cars, take private vehicles," he said.
On this day, Monday, October 2, 2023, the KCJB, named Shadish, was inaugurated by President Jokowi at Halim Station, East Jakarta.
