Jakarta. The State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) Ministry and Danantara Asset Management, as shareholders of state railway company Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) or KAI, have overhauled the company’s board of commissioners and directors to strengthen corporate strategy, accelerate innovation, and enhance service quality.

Bobby Rasyidin, former president director of Len Industri, has been appointed as KAI’s new president director, replacing Didiek Hartantyo.
