Central Java Cagub Andika Perkasa And Ahmad Luthfi Agree Poverty To Be PR

SEMARANG - Two candidates for Governor of Central Java agreed that the poverty problem that became homework (PR) must be completed if elected as the number one person in the province.

Candidate for Governor of Central Java Andika Perkasa when explaining his vision and mission in public debate said that the number of poor people in Central Java currently still reaches 10.4 percent.

According to him, efforts to reduce the number of poor people are the first goal in an effort to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs).

"About 10.4 percent of the poor people in Central Java must be suppressed," said the candidate for governor number 1 as reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, October 30.

In addition to poverty problems, he continued, the Central Java Provincial Government's public service index for the last 3 years has also experienced a downward trend.

Meanwhile, Central Java Governor Ahmad Luthfi said that there are still 3.7 million poor people in this province, a challenge that must be resolved.

Therefore, according to him, one of the efforts to solve poverty is to provide basic infrastructure services.

A number of basic infrastructure services, said the candidate for governor number 2, include the provision of livable houses, meeting drinking water needs, and providing sanitation.
