Member Of The House Of Representatives Proposes KAI To Provide One Special Carriage For Smoking

JAKARTA - Member of Commission VI of the House of Representatives Nasim Khan proposed that PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) Tbk provide a special carriage that is designated as a cafe as well as a smoking area or a smoking area on a long-distance train series.

The proposal was conveyed by Nasim Khan in a hearing (RDP) of Commission VI of the DPR, with the President Director of PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) or KAI Bobby Rasyidin at the DPR Building, Parliament Complex, Jakarta, Wednesday, August 20.

"At least, there is input too, there is one carriage left for the cafe, for coffee, at least there for the smoke area," he said at the meeting.

According to Nasim, the special carriage for the previous smoking area was as good as there. However, he continued, now the special carriage has been removed.

"Because many of these trains do not smoke Pak Bobby's area, at least in this train there is one carriage," he said.

Nasim believes the existence of a special carriage as a smoking area in a series of trains will be very useful. In fact, the benefits for KAI.

Furthermore, Nasim assessed that this could also be a solution for bored passengers, considering that the travel distance could take up to hours. He also compared the buses equipped with these facilities.

I'm sure, I'm sure it will be useful and profitable for trains. There must be a lot of it (the interest), just one (carriage) for cafes, shopping areas, because 8 hours of long trips, sir, on the bus for almost 8-10 hours there is a smoking area on the bus. During the train period during that one carriage, I'm sure you can do that," he said.

"This is the aspiration, sir, East Java is the most, these are all Java, sir, sorry sir, he is. Humanitarian values can also be accepted like that," he said.
