Jakarta has 2,495 cooperatives<\/p>\n
Governor Surjadi Soedirdja said that cooperatives have played
\na pivotal role in the economic development of the city .<\/p>\n
He revealed that in the Fifth Five Year Development Plan
\n(Pelita V) which ended this year, at least 93 new cooperatives
\nwere established in Jakarta, which is eight percent more than the
\ntargeted number. At present there are 2,495 cooperatives in the
\ncity.<\/p>\n
Despite the encouraging growth, Surjadi underlined the
\nnecessity to promote a campaign on cooperatives among the
\nmanagement of city-owned companies.<\/p>\n
At PD Pasar Jaya market authority, for example, 38 of the 165
\ntraditional markets under the supervision of the city-owned
\ncompany were still without a cooperative.<\/p>\n
As quoted by Antara, the governor identified the obstacles in
\ndeveloping a cooperative in Jakarta as \"a lack of vision by the
\ncooperatives managers, insufficient funding (and) inefficiencies
\nin transporting the cooperative workers.\" (mds)<\/p>",
