"The results of our comparative study to Badung, very affluent district in the province of Bali with PAD (local revenue) reach Rp3.2 trillion, some of which from economy and tourism sectors," said Syairi.
It relation to Kotabaru, because of its stragetic position in the central archipelago, it is appropriate to think of the increase in development, especially infrastructure.
Meanwhile, now fairly dense urban apparently only has one main line, so that each year will certainly increasingly congested with traffic because of the width of the road is not comparable to the growth of the vehicle.
From comparative studies in Bali is known, Badung district was larger than Kotabaru that it make monumental breakthrough by building on the sea toll that connects with Nusa Dua Bali.
About a big budget to realize that discourse, PDIP politician thinks it's not a problem, because this will be national project, the funds must be state budget.
