BANDUNG: Vehicular gas emission tests slated to be held
throughout October at every road leading into the city has been
canceled due to a lack of funds, the head of the regional
Environmental Impact Agency in West Java, Sumarty B. Hanafi, said
on Monday.

"In the absence of funds, we can only manage to conduct tests
at certain checkpoints, namely Jl. Setiabudi, Gasibu field on Jl.
Diponegoro, Leuwipanjang bus terminal and Cibiru traffic circle,"
Sumarty said.

"We even have to borrow the equipment from the Bandung Land
Transportation Agency," he added.

One checkpoint was expected to accommodate a maximum of 500
cars per day. (25/edt)
