JAKARTA - DKI Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria ensures that the operational management of the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) by the management of the DKI BUMD PT Jakarta Propertindo (Jakpro) is transparent.

"In principle, we will take care of it, manage it well, professionally and transparently," said Riza at the Jakarta City Hall, Wednesday, June 29, quoted from Antara.

Riza is optimistic that Jakpro will be able to manage JIS in a professional and transparent manner. Jakpro, he continued, has made an inventory of JIS maintenance costs, including the sources of funding.

"Indeed, this JIS does not have cheap maintenance costs, Jakpro will also calculate how much it will cost and where the funding will come from," he said.

He also invited the public to participate in auditing and supervising the management of the stadium with a capacity of about 82 thousand seats.

"Please check, supervise, audit even though I don't think there will be a problem because everything is done transparently and openly," said Riza.

Previously, in a meeting with Commission B of the DKI Regional Representative Council (DPRD), Jakpro President Director Widi Amanasto explained that the operational and maintenance costs of JIS are estimated to reach up to IDR 60 billion per year.

These costs are allocated for cleaning and maintenance, security, machine tools, changing lights, utilities, to insurance.

Meanwhile, the cost of asset depreciation or depreciation per year is estimated to reach up to IDR 150 billion over a 30-year period.

One of the revenues that is expected to cover operational costs includes the business of the training field and the main stadium. Currently, the stadium, which is located in North Jakarta, is in the stage of completion even though it can be used.
