JAKARTA - Regarding the rejection of the planned closing of train doors or level crossings at Senen Station by the Directorate General of Railways (DJKA), local residents claimed to have written to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi).

Very Yonnevil, Head of RW 001 Tanah Tinggi, said that he sent a letter to Jokowi as a form of reaction from the residents against the plan.

"In the letter, we conveyed several aspects, including economic, social and security," Very said when contacted by reporters, Thursday, March 10.

The letter is in the form of a bundle of books accompanied by the signatures of residents who reject the plan to close the level crossing.

Very said, the letter was sent since Tuesday, March 8th. He hopes that Jokowi can hear the complaints of residents who are directly affected by the plan to close the level crossing.

As previously reported, the Ministry of Transportation through the Directorate General of Railways (DJKA) is planning to test the closure of a railroad crossing in the Senen area, Central Jakarta, on March 23, next.

However, the plan was rejected by local residents for a number of reasons. Even the head of RW 01 Tanah Tinggi, Veri Yonnevil admitted that he had had a row with officers at the Directorate General of Railways (DJKA).

"Earlier, we had a riot at the Ministry of Transportation's DJKA regarding those who persisted in closing. The plan is that on March 23, 2022, the railroad crossing will be closed," Veri said when contacted by reporters, Wednesday, March 9, evening.
