JAKARTA - The construction of the State Palace in the location of the National Capital (IKN) of the Archipelago in the Sepaku District area, North Penajam Paser Regency, East Kalimantan is currently in the auction process.

The construction of the State Palace in the new state capital area, explained the Head of the Nusantara IKN Authority Agency, Bambang Susantono, in the auction stage at the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR).

"The auction process for the construction of the State Palace, which is planned to be built this year (2022) is in the stage of the objection period," he said, quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, August 17.

Bambang hopes that the PUPR Ministry will accelerate the auction process so that the construction work on the State Palace can begin this year.

The State Palace as the place where the President lives and has an office, as well as the Vice President's palace are the first to be built in the area of the new capital city of Indonesia.

Including a number of ministry office buildings as well as TNI and Polri facilities are planned to be built this year.

Regarding President Joko Widodo's plan to lay the first stone as a sign of the start of construction, the Authority has not yet received an official schedule.

"We haven't received any directives on whether the President will lay the groundwork for the commencement of construction or the inauguration of the building after it is completed," said Bambang.

A number of basic infrastructure developments for IKN Nusantara in parts of North Penajam Paser Regency and parts of Kutai Kartanegara Regency, East Kalimantan Province are already underway.

The ongoing basic infrastructure developments include the construction of the Sepaku-Semoi Dam and the construction of the Sepaku River intake.

Then the construction of the Sepaku ring road and the widening of the Petung-Sepaku axis road are also being carried out.
