It took Rp 600 T for Repair Service KA Jabodetabek

Jakarta -Directorate General of railways of the Ministry of transportation targets in 2030, train in Jakarta have competitiveness and independent. The Target was judged just dreams because of the availability of funds. At least it took Rp 600 billion to fix the service KA Jabodetabek.

"Hope in 2030 we have a competitive edge which has a high KA it will be difficult, because we need at least Rp 600 billion to fix the conditions of mass transit. And it is presumably hard, "said an observer of railroads, Muhammad's Hendrowijono, in an interactive discussion of ' train to the people ' at the Hotel Millennium, Tanah Abang, Central Jakarta, Monday (27/6/2011).

Hendro said, in the unlikely event that funds are right there certainly could be used to perform a variety of treatments. For KA in Jakarta alone, according to PT KAI only have maintenance costs range in numbers from 1 to 2 per cent per year of the price of a new train.

"Whereas in other advanced countries, the cost of maintenance of KA reached 5 per cent of the price of new KA," he added.

One example of proof of a result to poor RAILWAY services system is increased mortality due to tersambar KA passing in the path. Unfortunately, Hendro is not explained in detail the number of such deaths.

"So the result of the system and the operator which is not good, the line was not sterile. One of them for the Jakarta-Bogor-Jakarta and Bekasi, a result in this often takes up two lines due to tersambar KA kobran drift, "sambungnya.

Hendro assess, the number of problem encountered KA did not escape the lack of a commitment which was built to the Central Government and the PT KAI to optimize this transport. If these conditions continue to be maintained, then transport this will never be the solution to reduce congestion in the capital.

"Should the increasing population, this should also be increased by KA. Otherwise how can we prohibit citizens to not run into the transport on the road. When this RAILWAY well enough to reduce pollution and damage to roads in Jakarta, "he explained.

"But how is it possible, if there is no national commitment, there is no national target that involves all stakeholders," Hendro imbuh.
