JAKARTA - The certainty of giving THR (holiday allowances) to ASN (civil servants) was confirmed by the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani in the Minister of Finance Regulation 42/PMK.05/2021 concerning Technical Guidelines for the Implementation of THR and 13th Salaries.

The regulation stipulates the rules regarding the THR payment components consisting of basic salary, family allowances, food allowances in the form of money, and allowances for positions or public positions.

In addition, this PMK describes who is entitled to receive holiday allowances from the government, including the President and Vice President.

If examined, can actually be obtained an overview of the range of THR values received by the head of state and his deputy.

It is stated that the President's salary is six times the highest basic salary of a state official (other than the president and vice president) which is IDR 5.04 million per month. This means that the President's salary value is IDR 30.24 million.

Meanwhile, the Vice President is four times the highest basic salary for a state official, which means IDR 20.16 million.

The provisions for the salary value of RI 1 and RI 2 are regulated in Law 7/1978 concerning the Financial / Administrative Rights of the President and Vice President and Government Regulation 75/2000 concerning the Basic Salary of Heads of State High Institutions.

Meanwhile, for allowances, it is contained in Presidential Decree 68/2001 concerning Amendments to Keppres 168/2000 concerning Position Allowances for Certain State Officials.

The regulation mandates that the President has an allowance of IDR 32.5 million per month and the Vice President IDR 22 million.

From the two components, it can be guessed that President Joko Widodo received this year's THR of at least IDR 62.74 million. Meanwhile, Vice President Ma'ruf Amin was worth IDR 42.16 million.

For information, the government itself has set the THR budget for the 2021 period of IDR 30.8 trillion.

Of this amount, the portion of funds for civil servants, military, and police is IDR 7 trillion. Then, for civil servants within the local government or regional civil servants and P3K, it is said that it is IDR 14.8 trillion. Meanwhile, for retirees, it is as much as 9 trillion.
