These details include transportation equipment and machinery, namely a 2018 Innova Venturer 2 Micro car worth IDR 345 million and a 2017 Yamaha 2 PV motorbike worth IDR 13 million.
However, the report did not record land and buildings, other movable assets, securities, cash and cash equivalents, or debts. Apart from that, when we searched for the following year, we couldn't find the LHKPN.
