Ahok's Initiative Under Attack
There is no need for Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama to be hesitant when discussing the additional contribution for Jakarta's north coast reclamation project. If there is no evidence of ill intent or losses to the state, it will be difficult to accuse him of corruption even if his initiative is seen as controversial.
The policy proposed by Basuki imposes additional obligations on Muara Wisea Samudra-a subsidiary company of Agung Podomoro Land, a property development giant. Muara holds the permit to reclaim land on which it will build the 161-hectare Island G, to be known as Pluit City. It will have to pay Rp392.6 million to the city treasury as a condition for receiving the reclamation license.
