JAKARTA - Chairman of the Indonesian People's Consultative Assembly Bambang Soesatyo (Bamsoet) visited the DKI Jakarta City Hall to meet the Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono. Bamsoet came with capacity as Chairman of the Steering Committee (SC) Formula E. Bamsoet arrived this afternoon at around 13.08 WIB with the Chairman of the Formula E Implementing Committee Ananda Mikola, Formula E Chief Championship Officer Alberto Longo, and the management of the Indonesian Motor Association. Obviously, his visit to Heru Budi's office was to discuss the implementation of Formula E for the second year which will be held on June 3 and 4, 2023. "(The agenda) is Formula E," said Bamsoet briefly, Tuesday, March 14. Bamsoet and his entourage were in Heru's room for about 30 minutes. So far, the Formula E committee has been formed. Like last year, the committee was divided into two, namely the steering committee (SC) or the steering committee and organizing commitment (OC) or the organizing committee. "As the organizer, Jakpro has also prepared the composition of the committee starting from SC and OC to the condition of the circuit which is well maintained and still according to FEO standards," said VP Corporate Secretary Jakpro Syachrial Syarif, Wednesday, March 1. Syachrial explained that the position of Chairman of SC Formula E 2023 is still held by the Chairman of the MPR RI Bambang Soesatyo. Then, there are 6 Deputy Chairmen of SC. Bambang and his six representatives are administrators of the Indonesian Motor Association (IMI). Two of them are PDIP cadres, namely the Mayor of Medan Bobby Nasution and the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRR Prasetyo Edi Marsudi. After his name was revealed to the public, Prasetyo and Bobby compactly submitted their resignation from the Formula E committee. Then, Ahmad Sahroni is now also Deputy Chairman of the OC. In Formula E last year, this member of the DPR RI took the position of Chairman of the Implementing Committee. Then, two national racer figures were also included in the ranks of SC representatives, namely Tinton Soeprapto and the owner of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) Indonesia, Ricardo Gelael. Also, the owner of the Sundanese Kitchen restaurant, Andono Eko. Then, there are two people who fill the OC position or the Implementing Committee, chaired by former racer Ananda Mikola and his deputy is Akbar Himawan Buchari who now serves as Chairman of the Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (HIPMI). This year, the electric car race will still be held at the Jakarta International E-Prix Circuit (JIEC) Ancol, North Jakarta. Unlike 2022, Formula E was held with a business to business (B2B) scheme between PT Jakarta Propertindo as the organizer of the BUMD with Formula E Operation.
