JAKARTA - Chairman of the PKB DPP, Daniel Johan, responded to the resignation of the Head of the Archipelago Capital Authority (IKN) Bambang Susantono and his deputy, Donny Raharjoe. Daniel assessed that the resignation of the head of IKN indicated that he was unable to face the many problems that occurred in the development and transfer of IKN. "Of course this is a surprise for all of us. But this is an important note for all parties that there are actually quite a lot of problems in the IKN process," Daniel told reporters, Monday, June 3. Like, Daniel continued, many workers' salaries have not gone down. The member of the DPR for the West Kalimantan electoral district also admitted that he had heard the protests of indigenous peoples who were getting tougher lately. "Besides very large demands, sometimes beyond our imagination, we can afford it or not," he said. Daniel also mentioned the targets that must be completed before independence day. In fact, he said, PUPR Minister Basuki Hadimuljono had complained about the availability of water at IKN. "Such as pursuing targets for up to 17's, for example. The target for development, infrastructure, and even Mr. Basuki, had time to talk about how he moved, for example, there are no basic water facilities yet," said Daniel. "So this is an important note at the same time for all those involved to really reconsider the relevant target targets and according to what capacity it is," added the Deputy Chairman of Commission IV of the DPR. It is known that the Head of the Archipelago Capital Authority (IKN) Bambang Susantono and deputy Donny Raharjoe compactly resigned to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). The chairman officially bowed after sending a letter to the president some time ago. Minister of State Secretary (Mensesneg) Pratikno announced the Minister of PUPR Basuki Hadimuljono and Deputy Minister of ATR/BPN Raja Juli Antoni to be the Acting Head and Deputy Head of the IKN Authority. Both replace Bambang Susantono and Donny Rahajoe who resigned.

"Today, the Presidential Decree has issued a honorable dismissal of Mr. Bambang Susantono as Head of the IKN Authority and Mr. Donny Rahajoe as Deputy Head of the IKN Authority accompanied by thanks for his services," said Pratikno, quoted from the Presidential Secretariat's YouTube, Monday, June 3.
