The Director of the Money Management Department of Bank Indonesia, Faris Budiawan, accompanied by the Director of Corporate Secretary of MNC Group, Syafril Nasution and the Chief Operation Officer (COO) of IDX Channel, Masirom gave a symbolic gesture with the cash provided by BI.

BI has prepared approximately 500 packages for media personnel at MNCs. Until 11.00 WIB, there were more than 300 MNC employees queuing. Unfortunately, money exchange by BI is only valid today at the MNC Kebon Sirih complex.
