Jakarta (Antara Bali) - The Indonesian Ministry of Transportation expects to pass the standard assessment by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), with a score of 70 on the evaluation that will be conducted on October 2015.
Transportation Minister Ignatius Jonan here Monday said the current score of Indonesia is 60.
"Sixty is the passing grade. Our target is 85, but 70 is also good," he said.
Jonan said the inconsistency in flight safety and security is still a major problem at the Indonesian airports.
He will ensure airport infrastructure faclities are installed properly, such as fences, body scans and others.
Director General of Civil Aviation Suprasetyo said the assessment by ICAO for Indonesia has reached 76 percent.
"Seventy six percent are already fully-addressed, and 60 percent others have been evaluated," he said, adding that there are 1,016 protocol questions, while there are only 850 questions have been received by the system.
Suprasetyo said such assessments to raise points from 62 to 72.
He said the 62 score had increased compared to 2014 which was 45.09.
One of the government's efforts to increase score is to revise the regulations on the Approved Training, Airport Personnel License, Airport Personnel Competency Standards and Airport Personnel Testing.
By revising the regulation, Suprasetyo said, Indonesia has 17 points from ICAO.
ICAO mentioned that compared with the ten ASEAN countries, including Timor Leste, Indonesia earns 33 points in the aspects of legislation, organization, licensing, operations, airworthiness, accident investigation, air navigation services and airports.
Suprasetyo hopes with 72 points, the national airlines can fly to Europe.
So far, only Garuda Indonesia is allowed to fly to Europe as the national flight carrier has passed the International Airlines Association (IATA) standard evaluation. (WDY)
