He also questioned whether the food and BLT distribution was complete and on target or not. To that end, Sri Mulyani emphasized that the Ministry of Social Affairs (Ministry of Social Affairs) must go directly to ensure that all community rights are fulfilled.
“The president requested that before sending 100% of Lebaran and especially to Jabodetabek, whose policies should not go home and be able to help welfare,” he said.
In addition to the Minister of Finance, Social Minister Juliari Batubara also stated that the distribution of social assistance by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government was not in accordance with the initial agreement between the central government and the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.
Juliari claimed to have examined 15 social assistance distribution points in DKI Jakarta. Then it was discovered that there were citizens receiving social assistance from the Social Ministry together with DKI social assistance beneficiaries. The result is chaos on the field.
“In the time of Rats [Rapat Terbatas] Previously, the initial agreement was not the case. “The DKI Governor has requested assistance from the central government to cover aid that cannot be covered by DKI,” Juliari said at a Commission VIII working meeting that was streamed live on the DPR RI YouTube account, as reported. CNN Indonesia on Wednesday (6/5).
Juliari initially said that the central government would only distribute social assistance to residents who did not receive assistance from the DKI provincial government. The amount is around 1.3 million families.
PMK Coordinating Minister Muhadjir Effendy also participated in highlighting the distribution of social assistance by the DKI Jakarta provincial government. He admitted that he had chastised Governor Anies Baswedan for data on the welfare program provided by the central government to DKI citizens as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
“That [bansos] now the problem is the data, even in DKI that we now help is the problem with the data, “Muhadjir said in a zoom webinar on Wednesday (6/4), reported by CNN Indonesia.
“Not to mention synchronization and coordination, for example, we are with DKI instead of being push and pull, agreeing with the data, even yesterday I with the governor was quite tense, rather I rebuked the governor,” he added.
Last week, Anies mentioned the distribution of social assistance in the Capital City. According to him, this assistance has already reached 1.2 million families.
“Alhamdulillah, it has been well distributed. Is it perfect? No,” Anies said at a press conference broadcast via the Jakarta Provincial Government YouTube account DKI on Friday (1/5/2020).
“There is 1.6% of the distribution that reaches unauthorized persons and then returns,” he added.
Anies said the distribution was incorrect because there was an error in the recipient’s attendance data. “There is an incorrect address, there are people who can, some are dead. Everything becomes material for correction,” he said.
“In a short period of time, being able to distribute 98.4% to the right family is, in my opinion, a step that we should appreciate because it is not easy. Only 1.6% is our material to correct it in the future,” Anies concluded.
