JAKARTA - Thousands of cadres to replace Dasawisma or Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) in Jakarta have not received their operational funds for more than six months.

This was stated by a member of the PSI faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Eneng Malianasari. Eneng received a report from the community during a recess.

"Many of these cadres have been restructured or replaced by cadres, many of these cadres have not received operational funds, even more than 6 months," Eneng told reporters, Friday, August 4.

One of the reports received was that several replacement cadres in the urban villages of Kota Bambu Utara, Kembangan Selatan, Jati Pulo, Kebon Jeruk complained that the operational funds they should receive amounting to Rp. 500 thousand per month had not decreased.

Eneng admitted that he was sad to see the amount of operational money that had not been paid to the PKK cadres. Because, on Saturday, July 16, Anies invited tens of thousands of PKK cadres to gather at the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS).

In the event entitled Jakarta Greet JIS, Anies and his wife, Fery Farhati, expressed their appreciation for the role of PKK cadres in helping to improve the welfare of families in the capital.

"Cook, the Governor can collect Dawis cadres to JIS, but can't pay for operational funds? This must be resolved immediately. The precedent is bad if the DKI Provincial Government withholds funds for cadres, which are almost 100 percent women," said Eneng.

Furthermore, Eneng said that his party had asked for an explanation from the local village head to the DKI Jakarta Department of Empowerment, Child Protection and Population Control (PPAPP).

The obstacle to the arrears of operational funds for thousands of PKK cadres was due to poor inter-institutional bureaucracy, from the lurah, pusdatin to the PPAPP Service. Apparently, the process of updating the cadre turnover data is only done twice per year or every semester.

"In fact, now that the era is online, it still applies the old style. After all, if it is calculated per semester, it is already August and the cadres' funds have not yet dropped," said Eneng.

This member of Commission C of the DKI Jakarta DPRD asked Anies and his staff to immediately complete and reduce operational funds for substitute dawis cadres who have been more than 6 months old.

"It's not good if the DKI Provincial Government delays carrying out its obligation to pay the op funds for the dawis cadres which is their right," he added.
