TANGERANG (JP): The state airport management PT Angkasa Pura
granted on Sunday Rp 25 million in scholarships for 213 students
of several elementary schools located near the Soekarno-Hatta
International Airport.

Presiding over the ceremony at the airport compound, chairman
of PT Angkasa Pura II Arifin Razak said the one-year scholarships
are extended to poor students.

"We have limited funds. Hopefully in the future we can give
more to all poor students in the area," he said.

The residents have staged several demonstrations, protesting
the airport management's reluctance to recruit local residents as
airport employees. (41/bby)
