KSP is ready to provide full support," said Presidential Chief of Staff Moeldoko at a coordination meeting to accelerate the discussion and ratification of the PPRT Bill in Jakarta, reported by Antara, Thursday, April 14.

According to him, it takes hard work and strong collaboration between ministries/institutions as well as support from civil society.

"This requires a task force that involves many parties, including civil society. The management for its formation is immediately formulated. For how it works, we can adopt how the TPKS Bill Task Force team works," said Moeldoko.
