JAKARTA - The Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) stated that the government will soon plan to provide special assistance (bansos) by targeting several segments of society specifically.
The Director General (Dirjen) of the Ministry of Finance's Budget Isa Rachmatawarta said that the total allocation of funds that had been provided reached Rp24.17 trillion.
"Banson is for transportation drivers including motorcycle taxis, fishermen, and vulnerable groups," he said when met at the Ministry of Finance office on Monday, August 29.
According to Isa, the strategy for providing social assistance is expected to help the community in the face of the recent pressures and turmoil in price increases.
"This can help people in dealing with current price problems, such as rising food and so on," he said.
Previously, the announcement of the provision of social assistance had been conveyed in advance by the Minister of Finance (Menkeu) Sri Mulyani on Monday morning. VOI noted that this social assistance was distributed in line with the government's increasing signal for the adjustment of fuel prices (BBM), which are now running low.
"It is hoped that it can reduce the pressure on the community and even reduce poverty so that we can provide support to people who are indeed faced with pressure on rising prices," said the Minister of Finance.
He himself hopes that the distribution of the social assistance in question can begin this week.
