This meeting was closed.

Director of Promotion and Public Relations BP Batam, Dendi Gustinandar said, there were many things that were said by residents of apartment at this meeting.

But it only provides responses and explanations related to main tasks and functions in BP Batam.

As for other things, according to him, there are agencies that are more authorized for it.

"But regarding BP Batam, it is the same as what has appeared in media from the side of apartment dwellers," Dendi said on Monday.

They complained, there was a bill from management. The amount is IDR 12 million per square meter.

Initially they thought that much money was for BP Batam Annual Obligatory Extension (UWT) bill. Given UWT apartment for 30 years is up.

"As it turns out, this UWT is only one of the variables charged from IDR 12 million per square meter," he said.

On that occasion from BP Batam explained, for the cost of UWT there are already official rules and tariffs regulated in BP Batam Head Regulation (Perka). And for apartments in Sekupang area, the amount is around IDR 131 thousand per square meter.

"They asked again, for this UWT, can I take care of it myself? We say there are stages and it must involve management, residents and the government," Dendi said.

Asked about BP Batam's attitude towards the complaints of apartment residents, will they call the apartment manager? Dendi said that his party would first report this to BP Batam offcials.

But in essence, BP Batam will bridge the dispute between manager and residents of this apartment.
