JAKARTA - The Minister of Social Affairs (Mensos) Tri Rismaharini intends to auction off three units of luxury cars from the lottery for a national airline which the winners did not take. This information he presented in Surabaya, today is Saturday, February 13th.

The plan is that the money collected will be used to increase the disaster budget so that it can benefit the wider community. Furthermore, the bureaucrat from the city of Surabaya revealed that the three luxury cars were abandoned based on reports from Cabinet Secretary Pramono Anung.

"There are luxury cars from the lottery that the winner did not take, one Roll Royce and two Mercedes Benz," he said.

However, before this is followed up, he will communicate with the relevant parties in advance to prevent potential procedural errors in the future.

"We will first coordinate with the Ministry of Finance, hopefully we can," he said.

Based on the information compiled by the editorial staff, the three cars classified as high-end vehicles were piled up because the winners had no interest in bringing the 'angpaonya'. Because, the imposition of high gift taxes made the lucky person choose to return his offering to the state.

“The quiz winners don't seem to be able to pay taxes, so they won't be taken. "We will take care of it later because the Ministry of Social Affairs is handling the lottery problem like this," he said.

However, Risma did not specify the selling price and type of car that will be auctioned off.

"Wes pokoke ngono," he added.

To note, these three cars are the remainder of the Batik Air airline lottery entitled "Flying with Batik Air Home Bring Roll Royce" from the 2015 period. At that time, the airline, which is one group with Lion Air, provided 10 units of Honda Jazz, five units of Mercedes-Benz S-Class, and the main draw for one unit of Rolls Royce.

From the promotional flyer, it is estimated that the Rolls Royce car drawn will be of the Ghost type with a price range of Rp. 18 to Rp. 25 billion. Meanwhile, the cheapest Mercedes-Benz S-Class is IDR 2.5 billion.

This means that if Risma auctioned off these three vehicles, it is certain that she can increase the budget for victims of natural disasters by Rp. 23 billion.
