Minister of Transportation (Menhub) Budi Karya Sumadi left a message to the President and Vice President-elect Prabowo Subianto-Gibran Rakabuming Raka so that transportation development in Eastern Indonesia must be continued.

With development in eastern Indonesia, Budi said it is hoped that it can compete and be equal to West Indonesia.

"One eastern Indonesia must be continued because a certain effort is needed for us to provide equality between the west and the east," he said when met after the 2024 MPR Annual Session and the DPR-DPD RI Joint Session, at the DPR Building, Parliament Complex, Friday, August 16.

Budi is also optimistic that the transportation sector infrastructure project will continue in the Prabowo-Gibran government. He said the aspect of service to the community is an important thing to pay attention to.

"I think we have to concentrate on how this nation takes off for a better community service," he said.

"Therefore, what we have done is continued, if there is one or two that is not good, it can certainly be repaired," he added.

In addition, Budi also believes that the Prabowo-Gibran government will continue the construction project for the capital city of Nusantara (IKN), in East Kalimantan.

"I'm sure. Yesterday, Pak Prabowo's statement was clear, IKN will continue and Pak Prabowo's gestures respect each other between Pak Prabowo and Pak Jokowi," he explained.
