JAKARTA - Perumda Pasar Jaya ensures that the distribution of social assistance (bansos) in the context of accelerating the handling of COVID-19 in DKI Jakarta has been carried out in a transparent manner.

The General Manager and Public Relations of Perumda Pasar Jaya, Gatra Vaganza said, since the pandemic, Perumda Pasar Jaya has been trusted by the regional government (Pemda) of DKI Jakarta to distribute basic necessities in order to accelerate the handling of COVID-19 in the capital. Therefore, this task is carried out in earnest.

"In principle, Pasar Jaya is always committed to giving the best to the people of DKI Jakarta," he said, in a written statement received by VOI, Thursday, December 24.

Gatra said that the process of distributing social assistance was not easy, considering that there was a pandemic and large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) in Jakarta and its surroundings. However, Pasar Jaya continues to be committed to carrying out this task so that people who are economically affected can be helped.

Furthermore, Gatra explained, the implementation of social assistance continues to be carried out as well as possible so that it is in accordance with the expectations of the community. He also ensured that every item received by the community was the same in every package box.

"Pasar Jaya also ensures that the social assistance commodity commodities are in accordance with the completeness of the items in accordance with the demands of the DKI Regional Government through the Social Service and the KPKP Service. In doing so, Pasar Jaya here provides national brand commodities that are familiar to the community," he said.

Gatra said, the distribution of social assistance items until the time the goods are unloaded at the warehouse will be checked on the condition of all incoming goods by the officer. Good condition is not only physical. But the officers checked the internal conditions.

"As with rice products, officers carry out random checks to ensure that the type of rice is in accordance with the quality standard. The packaging process itself is also not easy because it requires care to keep it in good condition," he explained.

After that, said Gatra, officers will also check the goods to be transported to the car to ensure that their condition is proper. Then, the goods can be delivered to the recipient at the respective RW office.

"The same thing also happened at the distribution stage. It is also not easy to remember that the receiving point is that the community is sometimes located in densely populated housing and access to vehicles is limited," he said.

Furthermore, Gatra Beujar, officers also always reminded RWs or recipients so that their conditions remain as before until they are accepted by the community.

Regarding the assumption that the mismatch of the price of goods in the social assistance box, according to Gatra this is not correct. This is because each value of social assistance sent includes distribution costs, labor costs and also work equipment costs.

"So that the cost of social assistance is inseparable from the distribution process from Pasar Jaya to each RW. Pasar Jaya as the organizer of social assistance in DKI Jakarta always accepts criticism and also suggestions for improvement from the community," he said.
