Troy Harold Yohanes Pantouw, the spokesperson for the Nusantara\nCapital City (IKN) Authority and concurrently the Head of the IKN\nAuthority\u2019s Public Communication Staff, passed away on Saturday (25\/7).\nThe man who was one of the pioneering officials in the new capital city\nbreathed his last due to natural causes in his residential room at ASN\nFlat 3, Tower 6, Nusantara City.<\/p>\n
Deputy for Development Control of the IKN Authority, Thomas Umbu Pati\nTena Bolodadi, confirmed that a team of doctors from Hermina IKN\nHospital declared Troy had died at 14:25 Central Indonesia Time after\nbeing rushed to the hospital on Saturday afternoon. \u201cHe was taken to the\nhospital at around 12:45 WITA and was immediately examined by the\nmedical team. At 14:25 WITA, the doctors confirmed he had died of\nnatural causes,\u201d said Thomas, who lived directly opposite the late\nTroy\u2019s room number 102, on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n
The incident began when Troy was scheduled to depart for Balikpapan\nat 08:00 WITA to lead a service at a local church. According to\ninformation gathered, the deceased had woken up and been active as\nnormal since 06:00 WITA. However, suspicion arose when his personal\ndriver tried to contact him ahead of the departure time. Repeated phone\ncalls to the driver went unanswered. Worried that something had\nhappened, the driver took the initiative to visit Troy\u2019s room\ndirectly.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe door was knocked on and his name was called, but there was still\nno answer. We then decided to force open the locked door. When we\nmanaged to open it, we found him lying on the bed,\u201d Thomas said. Upon\nexamination at the scene, Troy was found to be not breathing. To\nascertain his condition medically, the IKN Authority immediately rushed\nhim to the nearest hospital. Based on the initial physical examination,\nThomas stressed there were no suspicious signs on Troy\u2019s body. The\nfamily conveyed that Troy had a medical history of hypertension (high\nblood pressure) and took daily medication to manage his health\ncondition.<\/p>\n
After administrative processes and a final tribute at Hermina IKN\nHospital, the body of Troy Pantouw was flown directly to Jakarta. The\nauthorities estimated the body would arrive at the family home in\nJakarta on Sunday morning (26\/7). Troy\u2019s passing leaves deep sorrow for\nthe entire IKN Authority. He was known as one of the first generation of\nofficials who guarded the new chapter of relocating the nation\u2019s\ncapital. In the early days of his service, Troy had to endure a\nchallenging phase when the IKN area was still an industrial timber\nplantation without building facilities. He and other staff had to\ncommute from Balikpapan, a two-hour drive each way, to oversee the\nstrategic national project until they could finally settle in the ASN\nflats in Nusantara.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/ikn-pioneer-troy-pantouw-passes-away-serving-until-his-final-days-1784998237", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
