Head of the DKI Jakarta Social Service, Premi Lasari, explained the issue of social assistance for meeting basic needs (PKD) that had not yet been disbursed.
The uncertainty over the disbursement of the Jakarta Elderly Card (KLJ), Jakarta Children's Card (KAJ), and Jakarta Disability Card (KPDJ) has been complained of by many people.
They flooded the comments column of the DKI Jakarta Social Service Instagram account to ask about the disbursement of the social assistance.
"Currently, it is still an administrative stage and the creation of a BUrekol (collective account opening) for new social assistance recipients," said Premi in a short message, June 5.

"Currently, the administration process and Burekol are ongoing," he said.
