State railway company PT Kereta Api Indonesia will be the single operator of Light Rapid Transit (LRT) system in and around Jakarta (Jabodetabek), Transportation Minister Ignasius Jonan said.

“PT KAI is assigned to operate LRT in Jabodetabek according to the presidents directives. So, there is no need to put it to auction because that will take a long time,” he said after a coordination meeting at the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs to discuss LRT here on Wednesday.

The meeting, led by Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Darmin Nasution, was also attended by Coordinating Minister for Maritime Resources Rizal Ramli, National Development Planning Minister/Head of the National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas) Sofyan Djalil, and West Java Vice Governor Deddy Mizwar.

Jonan gave the assurance that the state budget-funded project will run on schedule although several technical problems will still have to be resolved.
