JAKARTA - PDIP DPP chairman Djarot Syaiful Hidayat alluded to the development of the Nusantara Capital City (IKN) which was delayed from the target. Djarot satirized President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) who was too confident in his office and held the Independence Day ceremony on August 17.
According to Djarot, moving the nation's capital from Jakarta to East Kalimantan is not easy, so there is no need to force it. In fact, what is there, the infrastructure is not all ready.
"If the results are too forced, yes, that's the result. Electricity has not yet entered, water has not yet entered, infrastructure is still not ready, yes, what does it mean, this is one of the consequences of hasty policies, especially in its implementation, in its execution," said Djarot, Tuesday, July 9.
"So my advice, right, don't force it, that's why at the beginning don't be too smart, you said before, you said you were very ready, yes, it wasn't yet," he continued.
The member of Commission IV of the DPR predicts that IKN development will be lax in the next government. Because the budget has been focused on other allocations.
"I predict that if the burden is given to the government before and after it gets a bit heavy, not to mention that the free lunch budget has been extracted which has been approved, the benchmark is IDR 70 trillion, so don't expect it," said Djarot.
