JAKARTA - The National Winning Team (TPN) Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud MD assesses that the Sakti ID card program has similarities with the idea of a Digital Population Identity (IKD) which is currently the focus of President Joko Widodo.

"Actually, if you look at it, it's the same. The point is how it's simpler, it doesn't trouble the people, quickly, take a set, take a test," said TPN spokesman Ganjar-Mahfud, Patria Ginting, as reported by ANTARA, Thursday, December 14.

According to him, the similarity shows that candidate pair number 3 Ganjar-Mahfud has a view that is in line with President Jokowi.

"So instead we ourselves already have this view. There are others who doubt that it is indeed those who understand, who are in line with their thoughts, who can accelerate what has been initiated by President Joko Widodo in Pak Ganjar and Pak Mahfud and the supportive team," he said.

Patria also said that the Ganjar-Mahfud program is in line with Nawacita, which is nine priority developments in the next five years which are part of President Joko Widodo and Vice President Jusuf Kalla's vision during the 2014 Presidential Election (Pilpres) campaign.

According to him, one of the figures who played an important role in Nawacita in 2014, Andi Widjajanto and currently supports Ganjar-Mahfud.

"That's why we are happy. So this actually shows the Indonesian people that there is indeed a path of thought and it further shows that we both have an acceleration goal. Set, test bag in Pak Ganjar and Pak Mahfud," he said.

TPN spokesman Ganjar-Mahfud, Aris Setiawan Yodi, also explained that Sakti's ID card reflects the efficient service commitment of Ganjar-Mahfud if elected in the 2024 presidential election.

This program is expected to respond to public concerns regarding the slow access to government assistance. With Sakti ID cards, people can access various government assistance, including the Family Hope Program (PKH), Smart Indonesia Card (KIP), Basic Food Cards, Farmer Cards, and Fishermen Cards with these cards.

"So all government assistance programs start from PKH, KIP, Basic Food Cards and even Farmer Cards, Fishermen's Cards are summarized as one on the Sakti ID card," said Aris.

The Sakti KTP program is also directed to answer the younger generation's desire for simpler services. "He said he wants developed countries, digital countries, how come there are still many cards," said Aris.

Ganjar-Mahfud in the 2024 Presidential Election has a vision Towards an Indonesia Superior: Quick Action To Create A Fair And Lestari Maritime Country. Ganjar-Mahfud has eight missions including accelerating the development of superior Indonesian people who are of high quality, productive, and have a personality.

Next, accelerate the mastery of science and technology through accelerating research and independent innovation, then accelerating the development of a career economy based on knowledge and added value.

Furthermore, accelerating equitable economic development, then accelerating the development of the national digital system and accelerating the realization of a sustainable environment through a green and blue economy.

In addition, accelerating the implementation of substantive democracy, respect for human rights, fair rule of law and progressive security.

Finally, accelerating the increase in Indonesia's role in realizing a new world system that is more just through active free foreign politics and strengthening national defense.
