00:00Do you have any plans or expectations for MOP in 2025?
00:05Yes, we have a lot of expectations.
00:07We hope that the government will continue to give priority to the public transport system.
00:13And indeed, the government now pays a lot of attention to the Ministry of Transport,
00:20especially the public transport projects.
00:23And indeed, we have received a lot of improvements
00:28in terms of incentives.
00:30For example, the My50 initiative was increased from Rp100 million to Rp200 million last year.
00:40So I hope this initiative can be continued
00:43to facilitate users in Lembaklang, especially,
00:48to get cheap public transport services, i.e. Rp50 per month.
00:54And of course, we hope that this initiative will be continued in the next four years.
00:58And we are proud to see that the number of My50 users is increasing.
01:06Now it has reached more than Rp200,000 per month.
01:10And the number of rail users in Lembaklang has reached almost Rp900,000 on average every day.
01:16If you add the bus, we have more than 1.1 million ridership every day in Lembaklang.
01:23But we still know that Lembaklang is a big problem.
01:28So continuous efforts need to be made to improve our public transport system
01:33so that more citizens of Lembaklang can use public transport.
01:39So I hope that some initiatives and projects that we have asked for
01:45will be considered by the Ministry of Finance.
