TEMPO Interactive, Palu: The airline company PT Merpati Nusantara will soon open a new route between Palu in Central Sulawesi to Tarakan in East Kalimantan. 

“We expect this to be realized in March or no later than April this year,” said the airline's representative for Palu, Catrience, yesterday (8/2). 

He said the new route had much potential for passengers as entrepreneurs from the two cities need to get in touch often. 

Many residents from Palu stay in Tarakan,” said Catrience.
