JAKARTA - The Trunojoyo Institute appreciates the award for the Governor of Village Infrastructure Care that was just received by the Governor of Banten Andra Soni.
The Director of Research and Data of the Trunojoyo Institute, Amin Iskandar, said that the award was a fitting thing for Governor Andra Soni and his staff to receive because it was proven to have built a lot of infrastructure in villages throughout Banten.
"I think (the award) is very appropriate. Because, for the past 1 year, Bang (Andra) has been able to build a lot of village infrastructure through the village road construction program," said Amin in a statement to the media, Friday (6/2) afternoon.
According to the former President of BEM STIAMI, with his background as a farmer's child, Governor Andra Soni indeed prioritizes the development of village infrastructure to encourage the improvement of economic activities. Governor Andra, he said, is aware that the development of village infrastructure will also strengthen mobility between village communities.
"(Bang) Governor Andra Soni is great. Because he is a farmer's child, he understands very well that when village infrastructure is improved, it will strengthen community connectivity and be able to break the growth of economic growth in the village," he explained.
Amin also asked all parties not to compare the improvement of village infrastructure in Banten with other provinces that have APBD several times larger than Banten. The reason is, with an APBD of only 10 trillion, where capital expenditure is around 804 billion, the agenda for the development of village infrastructure is actually very optimal.
"It feels unfair if the Banten infrastructure improvement programs are compared to the progress of infrastructure development in the provinces of Jakarta and West Java, which have APBDs many times greater than the Banten Province," he said.
The former HMI activist also asked the people of Banten to be patient in waiting for the Banten provincial government's silent work in improving the welfare of the people of Banten. He believes that Governor Andra Soni will work hard to encourage the growth of the economy, especially at the rural level.
