PT DI should be taking major role over growing airplane passengers in Indonesia amid steady grow of Indonesia's economic. Indonesia which is the biggest archipelago economics world wide absolutely requires adequate air transportation to spur economics development across nation wide which is currently still having gap development.

PT DI should taking leverage this country as their potential market, small airplanes like N219 is so much match with our geographical which is made up of thousands islands. Before foreign airplane maker like ATR, Embraer and even from China's airplane maker catch this potential market, PT DI should be the first player.

Ragarding to what PT DI should do in the future, what Lion Air Group did is really nice to stimulate PT DI's growth. What Lion Air Group did is also good step in their business to catch potential market over indonesia's thousand islands. So, what we need is synergy over local airlines with local airplane maker in order to be "We All Rise"
