Bobby made this criticism from the beginning of the second round of debates. Pilkada City Field which took place at the Hotel Mercure Medan, on Saturday night (11/21).

That criticism, of course, is directed at the same time at his opponent, namely Akhyar Nasution who is a candidate for the incumbent. Akhyar is currently the acting mayor of Medan.

“The main task of the government is to ensure that services to the community are good, accurate and fast. We can say that the services in Medan are bad,” said Bobby.

“This is exacerbated by the corruption perception index of 12 major Indonesian cities, with Medan City being the lowest city. This makes the floods never end, pothole roads with garbage everywhere, corruption never ends.” added.

In the debate, Bobby Nasution, who was paired with Aulia Rachman, also asked a series of questions that cornered the incumbent candidate, Akhyar Nasution, who was paired with the PKS cadre Salman Alfarisi.

From the reduced salary for special nurses handling Covid-19, the problem of using a budget of 30 billion IDR in the last 5 years, to the floods and potholes.

“How was it in the Medan Baru sub-district until there were victims of death and suicide? Because you did not feel social assistance during the Covid pandemic. What did Udak Akhyar as acting mayor of Medan, who is also chair of the Working Group of Medan, “he said.

Candidate for mayor of Medan serial number 01, Akhyar Nasution at first always spoke calmly. However, over time, Akhyar used high notes, especially in the third and fourth sessions.

One of them was when Bobby asked about residents who committed suicide. Akhyar immediately answered out loud. He emphasized that the suicide case was not caused by the victim who did not receive assistance during the Covid pandemic.

“About the suicide in Padang Bulan, I came there, I verified that it was a family matter. My real in the field, I did not hear the news, but I was directly in the field. That was my answer, so not the word people, but I went directly to “I am responsible for this problem,” he said loudly.

Later, Bobby Nasution said there was no transparency in Medan City. Bobby had said that Medan City received a budget of IDR 30 billion. There should be a progress every year since the development in Medan.

Akhyar then responded to the statement. In a high tone, Akhyar asked where Bobby got the data from. According to him, in 2016 the realization of the Medan Regional Budget was Rp 4.3 billion, in 2017 the realization was Rp 4.4 billion, in 2018 it was around Rp 4.5 billion and in 2019 it was around Rp 5.05 billion.

“So there are still four budget years. Total, that’s only Rp. 18 trillion. So ladies and gentlemen, the City of Medan has budget transparency. All that remains is to open the City of Medan Government website. True, don’t rely on assumptions and estimates, “said Akhyar excitedly.

Then Akhyar also seemed excited when Bobby Nasution and Aulia Rachman questioned the delay in the fees for paramedics at Dr Pirngadi Medan Hospital and the hospital doctors were discharged. According to Aulia, this condition has a negative impact on the revenue of the Medan city government.

Akhyar was excited again at the question. He said the salaries of the paramedics were delayed because BPJS Kesehatan was entangled in paying claims from all Medan hospitals.

“It is true that the fees were delayed. Because

The payment of the fees has been delayed for a long time. Pirngadi’s income is BPJS. We ask BPJS not to get involved in paying claims for all hospitals. We ask this public service agency in Medan to be served by BPJS, “he said.
