Gunung Kidul, ANTARA JATENG - Governor of special district of Yogyakarta
Sri Sultan HB X rejects any plan to build toll road in the region on
fear of affecting stability of the local economy.
"No toll road in Yogyakarta. It is not that it is disallowed but
the Central Government also agrees (that Yogyakarta does not need toll
road)," the Sultan said at a meeting with Gunung Kidul regent and a
group of local people here on Thursday.
He said in 2019 a new international airport will be operational in
Kulon Progo. The access road would be wide a four lane road but not
toll road.
He said he hoped that the Gunung Kidul district administration
would soon hand over a program for development of infrastructure after
the completion of the Kulon Progo airport.
"I will do the negotiations with the central government," he said.
Gunung Kidul Regent Badingah said more tourists are expected to
visit the region with the construction of the new airport in Kulon
Progo.
He called for the peoples support to accelerate the completion of the project.
