akarta: State-Owned Enterprises Minister Dahlan Iskan, who made headlines and received heaps of praise from users of social microblogging site Twitter for his toll-road outburst, said that his liver transplant was still in good working order.

“Thank God, I received the results of my medical check-up at the Transplant Center Hospital in Tianjin last night and the results are absolutely fine,” Dahlan said in a statement released to media. “Other health indicators also show that I am in the best shape of my life now,” he said as quoted by tribunnews.com on Thursday. Dahlan had a liver transplant five years ago.

Only hours before his departure to Tianjin, China for a medical check-up, Dahlan became “furious” and took matters into his own hands at the Senayan tollgate early on Tuesday, after he found himself stuck in a severe traffic jam.

Dahlan exited his vehicle to inspect the booths, discovering that only two of the four booths at the gate were in operation, with one manned and one automated. The minister entered the vacant booths and threw the operators’ chairs onto the road.
