Netizens also provided various comments for Anies' post. There are those who ask about Anies' commitment to the promise of a house down payment of Rp. 0 percent, which is now being blocked by the law. There are also those who pray for Anies to be successful in managing Jakarta.

"How about the 0% dp house program Nies? The campaign promise he said for the little people xixixi Salary 14 million, they can afford to pay for the house / Anti yes, continue the program BTP (Basuki Tjahaja Purnama-Ahok) cheap rent for the small people? normalization vs naturalization hahaha, "tweeted netizens, @knugro ****

"Hopefully with a clean sky and pollution-free Jakarta, it can be easier to find 70 ha of land that has been lost. Amen," @danarac ****

"MR ZERO is all ZERO ZERO & ZERO," quipped @ibam_suw ****

"Those with an income of 14 million get a house dp 0. Those with an income of 4 million get an umbrella and dipper without a down payment," @Badai ****

In the international forum which was also attended by the Mayor of Yokohama, Japan, as well as representatives of various cities in the world, Anies exhibited a number of awards he had won some time ago.

In his remarks, Anies explained that currently Jakarta is trying to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50 percent in 2030, until it reaches zero emissions by 2050.

“Jakarta is working to fulfill its commitment to become a resilient city, and now we have reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 26 percent. We will continue to work on this until the target is met, even exceeded, "said Anies in the forum, Wednesday, March 17.

Anies explained that the efforts to reduce gas emissions were being carried out. He formed a climate task force in 2020, which consists of various stakeholders including public institutions, private entities, non-governmental organizations, and universities.

Meanwhile, in the Governor's Decree which was signed on June 10, 2020, Anies raised the highest income limit for home loan financing facility recipients without down payment (DP).

Initially, the highest income limit for a family that was allowed to apply for a DP home ownership was Rp. 0 was Rp. 7 million. Now, families whose income reaches Rp.14.8 million are allowed to make this application.

Acting Head of the DKI Jakarta Public Housing and Settlement Area Office, Sarjoko, confirmed this. "The change has been a long time ago. It is in the governorship. The highest income limit for DP program recipients is Rp. 0, from Rp. 7 million to Rp. 14.8 million," said Sarjoko on Sunday, March 14.

Sarjoko said the reason for loosening the minimum income limit for DKI residents who want to own apartment units is to increase the target market. Thus, there are also more private companies that want to work together to build Rp 0 DP houses in other locations.

In addition, Anies also cut the target of building a simple flat owned by him (rusunami) in which there is a DP house of Rp. 0, from the initial 232,214 units to 10,460 units.

When confirmed, Wednesday, March 17, Anies was reluctant to explain further about this increase. "Later, just one and one thing first, yes," said Anies after attending the inauguration of the Regional Board of the Indonesian Mosque Council (DMI) at City Hall, Central Jakarta.
