S

tate-owned lender Bank Mandiri, represented by president director Budi Gunadi Sadikin, has donated three garbage trucks to the Jakarta administration, represented by Deputy Governor Basuki '€œAhok'€ Tjahaja Purnama.

Budi said that he hoped the donation would be useful for both residents and the city administration.

'€œWe wanted to donate something that would help residents. Hopefully the garbage trucks will help ease waste management systems in Jakarta,'€ Budi told reporters at City Hall on Monday.

Meanwhile, Ahok said he appreciated the bank'€™s donation and seemed pleased to receive the trucks. '€œThere is too much trash in Jakarta but the city administration does not have enough garbage trucks to collect it. This addition will surely help us,'€ he said.

Previously, several other parties have also donated garbage trucks to the city administration, such as the Indonesian Chinese Entrepeneurs Association, PT Summarecon Agung and the Taipei Economics and Trade Office.
