Palwoto, who is also the finance, human resource and investment director of the temple’s management company, PT Taman Wisata Candi Prambanan, Borobudur and Ratu Boko (TWC), said that the promoter would try to do their best in organizing the concert.
He added that the company will provide tight security to ensure the pop diva's safety from the beginning until the end of her trip in Indonesia. However, with or without the bomb attacks, the promoter would still provide such high-level security based on the required procedures, he said. (jes/kes)
