In addition, his party also carried out extensification, such as levies for anchoring, the withdrawal of which is still constrained by the policies of the central government.

He said he was still trying to meet with the central government to get anchor fees.

"In terms of authority, our guide is sufficient, namely Law 23 of 2014. But when it comes to the redefinition of retribution, we must translate it together", he said.

The governor is optimistic that his party will be able to collect the anchor levy if good discussions are held with the Ministry of Transportation.

"I don't want to insist, because we have to maintain a relationship", he said.
