Banjarbaru, S Kalimantan (AntaranewsKalsel) - The Syamsudin Noor Airport begins to apply parking payments using electronic money (what it calls as Unik, the abbreviation of uang elektronik) to facilitate service users at the airport.
The inauguration of the parking payment system using e-money was attended by South Kalimantan Governor Sahbirin Noor on Thursday accompanied by the Mayor of Banjarbaru Nadjmi Adhani and other officials.
"We hope the parking payment system using electronic money is really provided convenience for parking service users at the airport," said Governor.
He requested that the state-owned airport operator PT Angkasa Pura I continues to socialize the new system, in order the service users know it and not surprised by the new rules aimed at facilitating it.
He said he supported the enforcement of the payment system because it is according to Bank Indonesia regulation No. 19/8/PBI/2017 on the national payment gateway.
General Manager of Syamsudin Airport Noor Wahyudi said his party is ready to socialize the new rules in the payment system of parking services both two-wheel and four-wheel.
"We will socialize through banners and social media about this new rule and expected more and more service users who know and feel the ease," he said.
According to him, the trial payment of non-cash parking rates begins on December 21, 2017, and will be applied some time until it can be fully operational by 2018.
"The main objective of providing services in addition to reducing cash transactions, accelerating operations at exits and supporting the government's non-cash national movement," he said.
