JAKARTA - The government has officially formed a Task Force for the Acceleration of Government Strategic Programs (PPSP Task Force) to be divided into three working groups (pokja) to accelerate the implementation of various national priority programs.

Meanwhile, Pokja I is tasked with accelerating the realization and implementation of the budget in the government's strategic program.

Furthermore, Pokja III handles the acceleration of the completion of regulations, including the preparation of the legal basis for implementing programs and aspects of law enforcement.

Minister of Finance Purbaya Yudhi Sadive, who is a member of Pokja II, emphasized that this Task Force will ensure that the implementation of government programs runs on target and efficiently, especially in the use of budgets.

"What is important is that my budget is really absorbed according to the program, right on target, on time. Later what is not absorbed will be transferred to a more useful place," he told the media crew, Wednesday, October 22.

He is optimistic that the existence of the Task Force and coordination between ministries will support the acceleration of economic growth above 5.5 percent.

"With this stimulus and program, I hope that later in this quarter our economy can grow above 5.5 percent, in the next quarter it can be even faster," he said.

Furthermore, Purbaya revealed that Pokja II will open a complaint channel for business actors to report their obstacles.

"I will hold pekara every week. Later I will dream of it. Later, if there are problems related to the law and regulations, we will distribute them to Pokja III," he explained.

"So later with a system like this, I hope that slowly all obstacles in the government, budget absorption and in the real business world, we can eliminate it gradually," he added.

He hopes that in the next few months, the steps taken by the Task Force can create real improvements to the investment climate and encourage the acceleration of national economic growth.
