JAKARTA - Perumda Pasar Jaya found the practice of buying and selling kiosks at Pramuka Market from tenants and third parties. The re-waivement of kiosks by this broker is set at a fantastic rental rate, which is up to IDR 80 million per year.

Based on the results of an inventory in the field, Pasar Jaya found that as many as 208 traders rented their stalls back at the market located in East Jakarta.

Responding to this, the Chairman of Commission B of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Nova Harivan Paloh, asked Perumda Pasar Jaya to take firm action against kiosk tenants who returned to renting out kiosks to third parties at fantastic prices.

This is because the price of kiosks in the market managed by Perumda Pasar Jaya is only set at IDR 5 million per year.

"You have to take firm action so that things like that don't happen again, because it can cause very fantastic losses," Nova said in his statement, Tuesday, December 23.

The same thing was expressed by Member of Commission B Ismail. Ismail urged Perumda Pasar Jaya not to remain silent and immediately take action against these individuals.

"Pasar Jaya must have the authority to cancel. Do not let it be used by parties who want to take advantage of the difference in rental prices," said Ismail.

In the future, Perumda Pasar Jaya and the tenants are asked to make an agreement not to do prohibited things as stipulated in Regional Regulation Number 7 of 2018 concerning Management and Business Development of Regional Public Companies Pasar Jaya.

"Low enforcement must be enforced. Once there are findings that are leased back at a fantastic price, they will be dealt with directly," he said.
