MEDAN - Governor Bobby Nasution and Deputy Governor Surya continue to make arrangements within the North Sumatra Provincial Government (Pemprov). One of the focuses is the efficiency of the North Sumatra Provincial Government's APBD, as instructed by the President to allocate spending to focus on public service performance targets.
Bobby explained that in the budget arrangement process, it turned out that an incorrect budget allocation was found.
"In the midst of this process, there were found that the budgets were still not in accordance with the spirit of budget efficiency, namely the strategic and targeted allocation of spending," said Bobby Nasution.
An unreasonable shopping plan was found, including shopping for tar cakes of tens of millions and a tooth that reached Rp. 100 million.
Bobby Nasution crossed out many budgets that were not needed in improving service performance to the community. The governor immediately emphasized to the ranks of Regional Apparatus Organizations (OPD) to spend the budget only for programs that are useful and have a direct impact on the people.
"I am firm about the budget and also perpendicular to the President's instructions on budget efficiency. For that, I regulate all expenditures that are useless and divert them to productive expenditures and have a direct impact on the community. He also asked the OPD not to mess with the budget, "explained Bobby.
