The Ministry of Social Affairs continues to improve data on social assistance, including the conditional social assistance program for the Family Hope Program (PKH), so that there are no more overlapping data on social assistance recipients.

The Minister of Social Affairs, Tri Rismaharini explained that together with her staff, her party is tidying up and ensuring the accuracy of the dual data on social assistance beneficiaries in the Integrated Social Welfare Data (DTKS) which must be matched with the Population Identification Number (NIK) so that it can truly be a reference for all distribution of social assistance program.

The double data in question is the existence of multiple names of social assistance recipients with the same NIK. To overcome this, said the Minister of Social Affairs, it is done by eliminating the double names so that only one name remains. These dual names are found in the PKH social assistance and Non-Cash Food Assistance (BPNT)/Sembako Program.
