JAKARTA - Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, responded to the statement by the former Governor of DKI Jakarta, Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, who highlighted that there were unscrupulous officials who used illegal parking.
This person, revealed Ahok, gained personal profits by collecting deposits from illegal parking attendants (jukir). That's why, illegal jukir is still mushrooming in Jakarta.
Syafrin claims that his party continues to eradicate illegal parking treatments that often disturb the community.
"We have certainly formed a joint team to carry out comprehensive control of the existence of illegal parking or illegal jukir," Syafrin told reporters, Wednesday, May 22.
However, Syafrin admitted that the existence of illegal parking could not be completely eradicated. Therefore, he asked the public to participate in reporting if they found it.
"For example, social media was conveyed through us, I immediately asked to be followed up in the field. So there was something DM, we immediately followed up. This means that there is public discomfort that we must regulate," he said.
Previously, Ahok saw that the illegal jukir whose parking space was brought under control by the DKI Provincial Government would not protest as long as they were officially employed.
Because, according to him, the illegal jukir's income so far is not much. The party who gains the most profits from illegal parking activities is the regional apparatus that receives the deposit.
This was revealed by Ahok based on direct findings in the field when he was still the Governor of DKI Jakarta.
"Actually, the parking attendants, I met them. They also didn't get rich, really. The seller received the deposit which became rich, I think. The parking attendant was just poor, ordinary, mediocre," Ahok explained on his YouTube account, Call Me BTP.

While still leading Jakarta, Ahok admitted that he had planned to build a parking building on the river. However, the plan was hampered because Ahok was reminded by one of the DKI Provincial Government officials for potential violations if this was done.
"Sometimes there are officials in DKI who deliberately scare them and can't. It's not allowed because they are afraid that the deposit will go away, it's possible," he said.
