Acting Chairman of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Prasetyo Edi Marsudi, replied to PKS President Ahmad Syaikhu's statement about the failure of Anies Baswedan to sell shares of PT Delta Djakarta Tbk while still serving as Governor of DKI.
On Sunday, October 29, Syaikhu reviewed that Anies had ever wanted to sell PT Delta's shares owned by the DKI Provincial Government.
However, when it was submitted to the DKI DPRD, the beer company's share sale plan was rejected by the PDIP faction and the chairman of the DKI DPRD so that the sale of beer shares failed.
Prasetyo explained that Delta's shares were purchased since the time of former DKI Jakarta Governor Ali Sadikin. At that time, the purchase of shares was aimed at controlling the circulation of alcohol in the community.
"For example, as local governments, we can control the extent to which people buy and drink beer. If it is not controlled, how will the community be? All of the people will get drunk," Prasetyo told reporters, Monday, October 30.
"How come the governor wants to get rid of it? He doesn't know the history of PT Delta. This is not a problem, this is not haram or not haram," he added.
The chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD emphasized that 25.26 percent of shares in PT Delta actually increased the DKI Provincial Government's regional cash income with an average of IDR 50 billion per year from the distribution of dividends.
"We have never given PT Delta capital participation, you know. When we were COVID, we got funds from there to help. PAD (regional revenue) our company is (highest) Bank DKI, the two PT Deltas," said Prasetyo.
