Transportation Minister Jusman Syafii Djamal said it is up to Merpati Nusantara Airlines whether or not it would continue its purchase of Xian MA-60s following its finding of a crack on the tale of the Chinese made aircraft.

The minister said that Merpati had the full rights to continue the procurement or not because it was a matter of business between the producer and the consumer.

The minister made the remarks in response to Merpati`s step to ground one of the two Xian MA-60s it has purchased from China because it found a crack on the tale of one of the two planes late last month.

Merpati and Xian must cooperate and have coordination to find the cause of the crack on the tale of the plane which was sold at a price of 15 million dollars. The minister said that the causes of the damage must be found whether it was caused by operational mistakes, mistake during its production or during its assembling.
