According to Basuki , contracts with the World Bank about four years ago, in the era before the Governor of Jakarta , Fauzi Bowo ie . The fund construction of two packets JEDI program will be taken over the use of the rest of the budget ( Silpa ) in the 2013 budget .

Borrow so much better like that ? I 'm tired Fitra heard , they did not understand what he wants , " said the man who was familiarly called Ahok it .

Earlier on Wednesday ( 04/30/2014 ) , said Basuki , Jakarta Provincial Government plans to take over the JEDI program execution as much as two packages , namely Package 4 and 7 . According to him , will also be a change in the employment contract on the package 4 and 7 , the time dredging is initially set completed within five years , must now be completed within two years .

" Because of the tender hard , some packets will be our own doing . If it is done alone so have no need to be tendered again . Nah tender ULP he repeated it in the city , really easy . Interchanges You first of all , is ready, just borrow flag ULP , so fast . if the discussion this week , then next month the bus made ​​the tender , "said Basuki .

Even those accused , the takeover of the highly nuanced political project , which is closely related to Jokowi decision to move forward in the presidential election .

Fitra coordinator Uchok Sky Khadafi explained , the JEDI program of the World Bank aims to complete the project by 2017 . However , if the project is pegged only to 2015 , the impact that usually arises is the grantor, in this case the World Bank , will reduce their contribution to the project .

" This means that if there is a reduction from the World Bank , means the city government had to cover budget shortfalls due to the reduction of the World Bank . To cover it up , re-tendering should be done , " said Uchok through a press release to Kompas.com , Thursday ( 01/05/2014 ) .

Uchok said , likely will win re-tender tersebit companies close to government Jokowi .

" We suspect that with the re-tendering will be won by companies close to government Jokowi , and re-tendering mode will be the same is the case with corruption busway . Understandably would need money ya ye election , " sarcastically Uchok .

Therefore , Uchok requested that the city government to review the plan to take over two of the JEDI project package . According to him , the budget allocation given the World Bank have been scheduled per year , and is very difficult to change the scheduling mechanism repeated .

"If you want to change, usually a reduction in the budget . Do not just for thrill-seeking imaging , but will instead Jakarta financial harm , and harm the taxpayers , " he said .
