Alhamdulillah, the Sumber Waras Hospital issue, which had been unresolved for approximately 14 years, has finally been settled," Baswedan told reporters in North Jakarta on Tuesday. The successful resolution of these long-standing legal issues paves the way for the much-anticipated hospital construction.
