JAKARTA - PT Jakarta Propertindo (Jakpro) BUMD for four years since 2019 has never provided dividends or distributions of company profits to the DKI Provincial Government. The reason is that Jakpro's financial condition in recent years is not healthy.

This was revealed by Deputy Chairman of Commission C of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Rasyidi. Rasyidi regretted this. Because, every year, regional capital participation (PMD) from the APBD to Jakpro continues to be disbursed with a nominal value of no less than IDR 1 trillion.

"The DKI Provincial Government provides funds, PMD, that's it, we hope that it will be reciprocal. If there is none at all, what about? The term, as parents, is sorry, right. They have been sent to school, but there are no results," Rasyidi told reporters, Tuesday, January 24.

Based on Jakpro's explanation to the DKI DPRD, the company owned by the DKI Provincial Government promised to return to providing dividends starting in 2025, along with efforts to improve the company's financial condition.

"The new President Director of Jakpro (Iwan Takwin) promised they would try, it is hoped that in 2 to 3 years they will be healthy and 2025 can provide dividends," said Rasyidi.

Furthermore, Rasyidi revealed that the DPRD had provided a number of suggestions that Jakpro could do. One of them is improving company management.

After that, Jakpro was able to boost company revenue by providing advertising stalls in its commercial areas, such as stations to Jakarta's LRT carriages. "It can earn money, right," said Rasyidi.

In addition, the DPRD also suggested that Jakpro combine a number of its subsidiaries. There are 7 subsidiaries who have been supporting PT Jakpro's business, namely PT PMJ Land, PT Jakarta Consultindo, PT LRT Jakarta, PT Jakarta Utilitas Propertindo, PT Jakarta Infrastruktur Propertindo, Jakarta Oses Energi, PT Jakarta Solusi Lestari.

"For example, there is a subsidiary that has one field, why should there be two? If it can be combined, then just combine it. So, first evaluation is carried out, which does not produce anything, then the business one, yes it is combined," he said.
