JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Regional Secretary (Sekda) Joko Agus Setyono said that his party was considering the option of providing subsidies for the rental of Kampung Susun Bayam (KSB).
Bearing in mind, currently the residents of Kampung Bayam have not been able to occupy KSB. One of the reasons is because there has been no agreement regarding the amount of the cost of renting a residence with PT Jakarta Propertindo as the manager.
"(The issue of Kampung Susun Bayam) we will immediately resolve it. Of course (we will review the subsidy for rental rates)," Joko told reporters in Manggarai, South Jakarta, Wednesday, March 1.
So far, the DKI Provincial Government is still formulating the right solution so that residents affected by the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) eviction can immediately occupy KSB. This is because the uncertainty of housing placement has occurred since its inauguration in October 2022.
"We discuss and find the best solution so that we can provide the best service to the community," said Joko.
A number of residents of Kampung Bayam returned to the DKI Jakarta City Hall on Monday, February 20, to demand that the DKI Provincial Government and Jakpro allow them to immediately occupy Kampung Susun Bayam.
Since Kampung Susun Bayam was inaugurated by former DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswdan in October 2022, residents of Kampung Bayam have not been able to occupy the residence until now.
One problem that has caused residents to not yet occupy Kampung Susun Bayam is the amount of the occupancy rental rate per month which has not yet been agreed upon. JIS eviction residents do not agree with the tariff offered by PT Jakpro as the manager of Kampung Susun Bayam.
"They (Jakpro) use tariffs in accordance with Gubernatorial Regulation Number 55 and we will impose them in public. Meanwhile, we are among the affected residents (the eviction program). We object. We are among the programmed residents," said representatives of the residents of Kampung Bayam, Shirley when met at DKI Jakarta City Hall.
"Residents want to pay what they can afford. If the range is maybe Rp. 150,000 per month, that should be the biggest. Because of income, sorry, what is called scavengers and factory rough workers are only Rp. 1.5 million," he added.
Meanwhile, VP Corporate Secretary of PT Jakarta Propertindo (Jakpro) Syachrial Syarief emphasized that the offer for the rental rate for Kampung Susun Bayam which was charged to its prospective occupants, namely the residents of Kampung Bayam, could not be lowered.
Jakpro still charges the rental rate for Kampung Susun Bayam, which is located next to JIS, amounting to Rp615,000 to Rp765,000 per month. Meanwhile, residents of former JIS installments demanded only Rp150,000.
"The tariff is in the range of Rp. 615,000 Rp. 765,000 according to the floor, which refers to the Regulation of the Governor of DKI Jakarta Province Number 55 of 2018 concerning Adjustment of Housing Service Retribution Tariffs. So, the tariff issue should not be a problem," said Syachrial in his statement, Wednesday, February 22.
Pergub 55/2018 is the basis for determining the rates used by the DKI Provincial Government to the residents of the flats. However, the arrangement of residential rental costs in Pergub 55/2018 is indeed different for each type, namely that the flats are programmed and general.
Jakpro uses the general category in the Bayam Susun Village rental scheme which is more expensive than the programmed category.
On the other hand, Syachrial admitted that until now Kampung Susun Bayam has not been habitable. Jakpro still needs to solve bureaucratic problems related to its management.
Although the KSB was built by Jakpro, the land where the flats were built did not belong to the DKI BUMD, but the DKI Jakarta Youth and Sports Service (Dispora).
"So, regarding the follow-up to the management and utilization of KSB, Jakpro needs to pocket a number of administrative completeness. Currently, Jakpro is accelerating the completeness of the administration," explained Syachrial.
