Rano Karno Wants High Schools In Jakarta To Be Equipped With Lifts
JAKARTA - The candidate for Deputy Governor of Jakarta Rano Karno admitted that he wanted to increase the number of classrooms in public schools in Jakarta by adding floors to the building.
With the increase in levels in school buildings, Rano also revealed that he would make an elevator or elevator to make it easier for students to go to class on the top floor.
"Don't keep the children using stairs, they have to use elevators. For example, like that. This means that there are technologies that used to be considered expensive escalators, now all of them are on crossing roads. There are even elevators for friends with disabilities," said Rano at Waroeng Bang Doel, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, September 17.
According to Rano, the nominal budget in the Jakarta APBD every year can still be allocated for the construction of school buildings and elevators.
"I used to think that way, 'duh, electricity is expensive'. It could be, the DKI Regional Government, that's for example," said Rano.
On the one hand, Rano admitted that he did not agree if the DKI Provincial Government implemented a free school program in private education units. In fact, previously it was the candidate for Governor Pramono Anung who wanted to make private schools free so that 12 years of study could be carried out.
"No, (the private school) is not (freedomized), because the private capacity is limited," he said.

According to Rano, to facilitate students who are not accommodated in public schools in accepting new students (PPDB), it is better for the DKI Provincial Government to provide educational scholarships to students who attend private schools.
"This is where the role of local governments can provide scholarships for public children who go to school in the private sector. That is the scholarship fee from the local government, that is the system, and it is done by several regencies and cities around. That's normal, depending on whether the APBD is big or not? Jakarta is more than enough," explained Rano.
