JAKARTA - PT Metalindo Teknik Utama (MTU) participated in the 2024 Gaikindo Indonesia International Commercial Vehicle Expo (GIICOMVEC) with a variety of interesting products, one of which was VAR Mobile, in order to accommodate the need for supervision of football matches in Indonesia.

VAR Mobile is a special order vehicle worked on by the company in collaboration with PT Liga Indonesia Baru (LIB) to support the organization of football competitions in Indonesia, consisting of League 1 and League 2.

To get to know VAR Mobile more deeply, Syarifuddin Tangka, as Director of PT MTU, said that this project had been planned since November last year by establishing talks with dealers and LIB.

"The conversation about this was originally around November last year through dealers and LIB, and it started to get intense around the end of last December," Syarifuddin told VOI in Senayan, Friday, March 8.

He said that his party chose the Mitsubishi Fuso Canter FE84 as the basis for VAR Mobile because it provided a lot of space in the back storage section so that it was able to accommodate the need to monitor the VAR system.

"The agreement is based on the needs of the LIB, which is to have a deep space and finally we chose Canter FE84. So, we only provide the choreography without VAR equipment and installation from the LIB," explained Tangka.

The man who is familiarly called Ciwa explained that currently his party provides around 15 units for PT LIB with 12 units used mobile and 3 of them will be made for the stadium.

"For the time being, we produce 12-15 units. 12 units will be used mobile, then 3 units are available at the stadium. For example, in Jakarta we will get one unit and can cover matches in Jakarta, Bekasi, and Bogor," concluded Tangka.

VAR Mobile has a tough design using the 40x40tensure and a length dimension of 5,350 mm, a width of 2,100 mm, and a height of 2,200 mm.

Meanwhile, the interior is equipped with a planting LED light with a ceiling interior and a 4mm multiplex RIGHT wall. To support electrical installation, this car has a power supply of 10,000 Watts.
