Kadin and Jakarta Government Eye Stronger Partnership on Sports, Transport

Jakarta, VIVA – Chairman of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin), Anindya Novyan Bakrie, paid a visit to Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung at City Hall on last Thursday (June 12).

Bakrie said the meeting covered various topics, ranging from sports to environmental issues.

“We talked about how he (Governor Pramono) has a strong concern for sports. But not just sports—he’s also deeply committed to environmental matters,” he stated after the meeting.

The kadin chairman further shared that the discussion also touched on property and transportation sectors.

“This time I came in my capacity as an entrepreneur. We have many business interests in Jakarta—from property to transportation—so we had an open discussion,” Bakrie remarked.

He added, "We explored how we can make Jakarta more comfortable in terms of transportation—environmentally friendly, socially inclusive, and also beneficial for the local government."

Bakrie also noted that Governor Pramono was open and receptive throughout the discussion.

“He also encouraged stronger collaboration. So the partnership between Kadin Jakarta and the Jakarta Provincial Government, which has always been close, should grow even stronger,” he concluded.
