Deputy Chairman of Commission A of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Inggad Joshua, revealed the cause of the change of position for the Mayor of West Jakarta. According to Inggad, during his tenure, the West Jakarta City Government was less than optimal in collecting developer obligations intended as social facilities (fasos) and public facilities (fasum).

"This seems to be a problem, right. Problems for the benefit of the community or public needs that have not been properly realized," Inggad told reporters.

In fact, the problem of asset inventory in West Jakarta is often in the spotlight of the DPRD. When he was just the Mayor of West Jakarta, Yani was warned by the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD to collect the obligation of developers who have not submitted assets to the DKI Provincial Government.

Not to mention, there are many social and public facilities assets from developers who have problems when they are about to be inventoried by the DKI Provincial Government. This is due to the condition of the developer as the holder of the land use appointment permit (SIPPT) which is already bankrupt or bankrupt.

"This means that the problem of handling social and public facilities has not been implemented and has not been optimal," said Inggad.
