PLN and DPR

From Media Indonesia

In relation to the article published in Media Indonesia on Jan. 25, 1995 under the title 'Dirut PLN Dinilai Abaikan Pimpinan Komisi VI DPR' (PLN president is said to have ignored the head of the House Commission VI), we give the following explanation.

1. The Board of Directors of PT PLN (State-owned Electricity Company) and all its offices highly respect the leaders and members of the House of Representatives (DPR). Therefore, it is impossible for us to ignore the head of the Commission VI, as reported.

2. In this context, the president of PLN, who was out of town on Jan. 24, 1995 (Yogyakarta and Semarang, Central Java) has apologized to the head of the Commission VI for the misunderstanding that occurred.

3. Our problems were that we had just moved to our new premises and the telephones were not functioning properly. The staff in the secretariat were also engaged in putting everything in order.

4. We have reported the matter to the head of Commission VI and apologized.

5. PLN and the House Commission VI deplored the report.

We hope this clarifies the matter.
