“Then what is your response that there is a target from the Minister for 7,904?” asked the prosecutor in court.

The second is how the areas are determined. The third is how the budget is. This is important because , if it’s not available, of course it won’t work.Then the last thing we do is RFI (request for information), what is the industry’s ability tosupport we are building this, whether they are capable or not,” Guntoro answered.

“When Mr. Anang as CEO conveyed to you, 7,904. What did you convey to Mr. Anang?” asked the prosecutor.

“Like our usual discussions, we also often communicate with Mr. Noeg (Director of Bakti Kominfo Infrastructure, Bambang Noegroho), there concern we and our friends are, firstly, time is tight, secondly this budget issue is also being discussed because Bakti’s budget only relies on PNBP or BLU is not enough. Then next is who will do it,” Nugroho replied.
