Hadimuljono.
He said that following directions of President Joko Widodo, the Indonesian government will focus on working on land development projects and road construction from January 2023.
In the second quarter, the leader wants to invite investors to the new capital to offer which neighborhoods to be used for building hospitals and other facilities, Basuki said
Basuki said that he had held a limited meeting to discuss the financing of the new capital project, including the financing of the IKN Authority Agency with its investment in basic infrastructure.
