Jakarta (Antara Bali) - State-owned Merpati Nusantara Airlines President Director Rudy Setyopurnomo said his airlines hoped that its creditors would write off its outstanding debts.
"I should stay relaxed because Merpati owed the debts to its creditors when it was led by previous managements in the past. We hope the government would settle them because most of the debts also came from state-owned firms," Rudy said here on Monday.
However, Rudy refused to reveal the amount of his company's outstanding debts. He has only been Merpati's president director since May 2012.
"I did not remember the amount. I could not learn the figure by heart," he said while he hurriedly got on his car.
Earlier reports have it that Merpati's outstanding debts reached Rp3.14 trillion.
Merpati owed the money to a number of state firms such as oil and gas firm Pertamina, Bank Mandiri, airport operator PT Angkasa Pura II, state asset management firm PPA and insurance service Jasindo. (*/DWA)
