MAKASSAR - The city tour bus launched by the Makassar City Government as a result of the 'recycled' Tangkasaki garbage box car was apparently not allowed to operate.
This bus was launched by the Governor of South Sulawesi Nurdin Abdullah together with the then Acting Mayor of Makassar, Rudy Djamaluddin on December 3, 2020. Later, the Mayor of Makassar Danny Pomanto highlighted the Makassar Tangkasaki metro tour bus.
Head of Makassar City Transportation Agency Mario Said explained that the Ministry of Transportation did not allow Tangkasaki to operate. The Ministry of Transportation's letter in February was signed by Director General of Land Transportation Budi Setyadi.
Mario explained that the Makassar metro tour bus, which was recycled from the Tangkasaki garbage car, or the garbage carrier that was turned into a bus, did not comply with the regulations.
"Not in accordance with the standard, we temporarily stop operations and wait further from the leadership of the mayor of Makassar, M Ramdhan Danny Pomanto," said Head of Makassar City Transportation Agency Mario Said, to reporters, Tuesday, March 9.
At the initial stage, the Makassar City Government provided 3 Makassar Metro buses. At that time, the plan was to add 10 'recycled' tourist buses from the Tangkasaki garbage car (Our Garbage Transport Truck) under the leadership of Danny Pomanto in Makassar during the first term.
"This is temporary, if we have entered the APBD it has been completed," said Acting Mayor of Makassar, Rudy Djamaluddin, to reporters, Thursday, December 3.
The bus was originally able to be used for free later for Makassar residents and tourists who want to get around the Jalan area.
