(7 June 2021) - Commission VIII of
the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia carried out the
agenda of a Work Meeting and Hearing Meeting between the Ministry of Social
Affairs together with Members of Commission VIII of the House of Representatives
at Wisma Griya Shaba Kopo, Bogor Regency. The meeting was chaired by the
Chairman of Commission VIII DPR RI, Yandri Susanto.
In the meeting attended by the Minister of
Social Affairs, Tri Rismaharini, and the team were accompanied by the Director
General of Poverty Handling, Asep Sasa Purnama along with Echelon I Officials,
and all Echelon II Officials within the Directorate General of Poverty Handling,
namely the Secretary of the Directorate General of PFM, Nurul Farijati, Director
of PFM Region I, Said Mirza Pahlevi, Director of PFM Region II, I Wayan
Wirawan, and Director of PFM Region III, AM Asnandar.
On that occasion, Commission VIII of the DPR
RI, represented by the Chair of the Commission, expressed his appreciation for
the performance of the Minister of Social Affairs in dealing with data problems
that have been polemics, "This is the first time in history that the
Minister of Social Affairs has disassembled the data to see the problems and
fix them", said the chairman of Commission VIII DPR RI.
The Minister of Social Affairs further said
that before the distribution was carried out, we had to reconsider first,
because indeed the data changes every month, some are fixed and there are also
changes due to death and so on, if not done then the data will remain the same
unchanged.
Commission VIII of the DPR RI also supports
the Ministry of Social Affairs in this regard to tidy up and ensure that the
new Integrated Social Welfare Data (DTKS) is truly valid and becomes a reference
for all distributions of Social Assistance Programs so that they are right on
target.
