The Mayor's Decisive Steps To Seal The Largest Mall Appreciated By Netizens: This Is The New Field For A Cool Leader

JAKARTA - Medan Mayor Bobby Nasution took firm steps. Kahiyang Ayu's husband sealed the biggest shopping center in Medan City, Mall Center Point.

The sealing was done because, since 2013, the mall has not paid taxes. Previously, the Medan City Government had repeatedly communicated with the mall manager, PT ACK regarding the payment of taxes and fines.

"Not suddenly, the period before I had also communicated", said Bobby, Friday, July 9.

In fact, he said, there was an MoU between PT KAI and PT ACK. However, the MoU has expired. "It's been 2 years, and there's been no follow-up", Bobby said.

According to him, Mall Center Point is in arrears in taxes of up to IDR 56 billion. He said that the initial tax value was IDR 80 billion, but after calculating the loss, the figure was IDR 56 billion.

During this sealing period, Bobby Nasution confirmed that there would be no activity at the Center Point Mall Medan. To the manager, Jokowi's son-in-law reminded him to immediately pay his tax arrears and fines.

Bobby's decisive step received support from netizens in the sealing photo that Bobby uploaded on his Instagram account @bobbynst.

"After a long time, finally there is the Mayor of Medan who has the courage to firmly dispute the IMB for the Medan Center Point Mall Building with the developer PT Agra Citra Kharisma because since the beginning of 2013 there has been no IMB for the construction of the Mall because it stands on the land of PT KAI's Management Rights and HGU, although finally the decision of the review was decided. Back By the Supreme Court won PT KAI, that's cool Bro Mayor", wrote @fahrozi_putra.

Besides that, support came from @martinaps92 "Wow, my mayor, recently Medan has a really cool leader n❤️❤️", she said.

Not only that, but Bobby Nasution also revealed that Mall Center Point Medan did not have a Building Permit (IMB) in its establishment. So, said Bobby, the IDR 56 billion tax does not include the IMB levy.

"Well, the IMB has not yet been issued, the IDR56 billion is just a tax. This is for Medan City's investment in the future. We don't want investment to be just a blind eye. We, the Medan City Government, are open to hindering investors, instead, we are opening our hands as wide as possible. We make it easy for the permit, we will help", said Bobby Nasution.
