JAKARTA - The President Director of PT Agrinas Pangan Nusantara, Joao Angelo De Sousa Mota, confirmed that until now there has been no decision to postpone the plan to import 105,000 pickup trucks from India.

He said that the rejection of the import policy so far came from certain individuals or individuals, not from the government or the wider community.

"Who is rejecting this? because I am a state-owned enterprise. I must obey the government and obey the government and the people so we are only amils, we are loyal to the country and the people, not to certain individuals or groups," he said at a press conference, Tuesday, February 24.

Joao emphasized that he would continue to implement the policy as long as he received support from the government. However, if the government and the DPR decide to stop imports, then he is ready to follow the decision and bear all the consequences.

"As long as the state is in favor of supporting what we are doing, we will carry it out. But if the state and the DPR say that we have to stop, we will stop with all the risks I have just said," he said.

Furthermore, Joao revealed that his plan was to ask for time to meet with the Deputy Speaker of the DPR, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, to provide a direct explanation regarding the reasons behind the import policy.

He assessed that, so far, the explanation received by Sufmi Dasco still comes from one point of view, so there needs to be additional exposure so that the consideration is more comprehensive.

"I will ask time to Mr. Dasco to convey to him as well, because maybe until now he has only listened from one side. So now I will also try to find his time," he said.

In addition, Joao emphasized, his loyalty to the country and the people, as well as his commitment to fully and responsibly carry out every decision made by the government.

"I will definitely be loyal, faithful and obedient, I will make sure 100 percent to my friends and to all the people," he said.
