JAKARTA - Indonesian Presidential Candidate Anies Baswedan promised to bring justice to business actors in the northern coast area of Java Island, which has become empty of visitors due to the impact of the Trans Java Toll Road.

The former governor of DKI Jakarta said that the construction of the toll road should have continued. However, if elected president, he admitted that he would run a program called the Toll Road with Justice.

"The construction of the toll road, like it or not, continues. On the other hand, alternatives are needed for local business actors," said Anies at Abah Restaurant, Brebes, Central Java, as quoted by Antara, Saturday.

During his visit to the restaurant, he listened to complaints from restaurant entrepreneurs to workshop entrepreneurs. The two entrepreneurs admitted that the quiet condition of the visitors had disrupted their business turnover.

To run the Fair Toll Program, according to Anies, there are three things that will be focused, namely first prioritizing local food efforts to be able to enter and carry out business activities in the rest area.

"Secondly, the land used as a toll road must be calculated as capital participation. Because if you give a lot of money in a short time, yes, it just runs out," he said.

Third, he continued, will pay attention to non-toll arterial roads or those that are free of charge. That way, roads that were previously deserted due to damage, can be crowded again and can have an impact on business actors along the road.
