SAMARINDA - Deputy Chairperson of the MPR, Zulkifli Hasan, said that the transfer of the national capital (IKN) from DKI Jakarta to East Kalimantan was the right momentum for equitable development in Indonesia.
He explained that with the new IKN there would be a new balance, so the development program did not only occur in the Java region, but also in Kalimantan and the eastern region.
"God willing, the IKN Law will be completed in January 2022. I really support it, there are indeed some parties who don't support it due to the pandemic, but I hope that as soon as possible, East Kalimantan, which is rich in resources and has contributed greatly to Indonesia's development, can prosper its people," he said, in Samarinda, East Kalimantan, as reported by Antara, Tuesday, December 28.
He stated this at the inauguration of the East Kalimantan Indonesian Student Regiment Alumni Association (IARMI) DPP management for the 2020-2024 period in the Ruhui Rahayu Multipurpose Room, 1st floor of the East Kalimantan Governor's Office.
On that occasion, he who is also the chairman of the IARMI DPP inaugurated the IARMI Kaltim DPP board for the 2020-2024 period, chaired by Irianto Lambrie.
