REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, WANGIWANGI -- A sea toll ship connecting the western and eastern regions of Indonesia will make a stopover twice a month in Wakatobi District in Southeast Sulawesi Province.
"The sea toll ship transits in Wakatobi while sailing from Tanjung Perak towards the eastern region of Indonesia and again during its return journey," Tawakal, head of the Wakatobi industry, trade and SME office, stated here on Thursday.
The first stopover was made on January 25, 2016, on its way to the eastern region of Indonesia. The ship did not carry any goods to or from Wakatobi as the local traders were not aware of the ship's schedule, he added.
During the next trip, the ship is expected to carry goods from Surabaya to Wakatobi.
The sea toll ship is meant to cut logistics costs significantly.
