KEDIRI - Presidential Chief of Staff Dr. Moeldoko is optimistic that the construction of Dhoho Kediri Airport will grow new economic areas.

The existence of a airport with a total investment of IDR 10.8 trillion, according to Moeldoko, will increase the mobility of people and goods quickly. "Products from here that were previously difficult to distribute will find it easier to spread both domestically and internationally," said Moeldoko when directly inspecting the construction of Dhoho Kediri Airport, Thursday, January 5.

The 2013-2015 TNI Commander said that the construction of Kediri's Dhoho Airport was an acceleration of national development. Especially after the government has prepared a backbone in the form of other infrastructure development. Such as main roads and toll roads.

"Now it's just a matter of how the private sector and local governments respond. And I think the construction of Kediri Airport is a manifestation of the private response to the government," he said.

On that occasion, Moeldoko also ensured that the Presidential Staff Office would participate in encouraging the acceleration of the construction of Kediri's Dhoho Airport.

"KSP is ready to support the construction of this airport. Please communicate it if there is a blockage and needs debottlenecking. That's the task of KSP," concluded Moeldoko.

For information, the construction of Kediri's Dhoho New Airport is one of the National Strategic Projects (PSN) that is included in Permenko Number 21 of 2022.
