Jakarta (B2B) - Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat (DPR) menyiapkan sejumlah pilihan dalam menangani silang sengkarut persoalan di tubuh Televisi Republik Indonesia. Salah satu opsinya adalah pembubaran televisi publik ini.

"Ada opini untuk membubarkan TVRI karena penyakit di interrnal TVRI sudah sangat kronis," kata Wakil Ketua Komisi Komunikasi DPR Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita saat ditemui di Kompleks Parlemen Senayan, Kamis.

Menurut dia, terobosan dan transformasi total perlu dilakukan untuk menyelamatkan TVRI. Payung hukum pembubaran TVRI adalah Rancangan Undang-Undang Radio dan Televisi Republik Indonesia, yang kini sedang dibahas DPR.

Anggota Dewan Pengawas TVRI, Indrawadi Tamin, tak mempermasalahkan opsi pembubaran TVRI. "Kalau Undang-Undang RTRI disahkan, TVRI memang akan digabung dengan RRI," ujarnya.
