ACEH - The Aceh Regional Settlement Infrastructure Center, Ministry of PUPR, stated that a lot of the settlement infrastructure built in the province was not managed optimally by the regional government.

In fact, according to the Head of the Aceh Regional Settlement Infrastructure Center, Mohd Yoza Habibie, the settlement infrastructure was built with a large budget.

"In fact, if it is managed optimally, it can become a source of regional income. Such as waste processing sites, clean water installations, tourist attractions, and others," said Mohd Yoza Habibie in Banda Aceh, Antara, Friday, February 4.

He gave an example of a landfill and waste processing. Once built, the infrastructure is not managed properly and seems neglected.

In fact, said Mohd Yoza Habibie, if it is managed optimally, it can become a source of regional income. However, in reality, not a few of these infrastructures were built and then left alone.

"As well as other settlement infrastructure, the management and maintenance seems less than optimal. Therefore, we hope that in the future the regional government will manage and maintain the settlement infrastructure that has been built," he said.

Mohd Yoza Habibie said that the Aceh Regional Settlement Infrastructure Center only builds basic infrastructure needs. Once built, the infrastructure is donated to local governments.

"Furthermore, the infrastructure is under the authority of the regional government. The regional government will manage and maintain it. If it is managed properly, it can certainly become a source of income for the region," said Yoza.
