JAKARTA - Executive Secretary of the National Winning Team (TPN), Heru Dewanto said the Ganjar Pranowo-Mahfud MD pair had prepared 21 work programs with a total budget of IDR 2,500 trillion for 5 years of service.

Heru said that some of the 21 programs had been launched, such as Ganjar's promise when he visited Merauke about one village, one health facility (faskes), and one health worker (nakes).

"We already know which programs can be attached to existing programs in the current government so that later it can be shown how the plus character and speed of the program are," said Heru Dewanto at the Media Center TPN, Central Jakarta, Saturday as quoted by Antara.

Regarding the budget for the 21 programs, he explained that the candidate pair number 3 really pays attention to the structure of the APBN so that it will maintain efficiency so that the APBN deficit is no more than 3 percent of GDP.

Heru said that Mahfud had emphasized that he would minimize budget leaks in each department, especially regarding the consumption of government spending.

"Pak Mahmud is firm that so far there have been many leaks related to consumption, government spending, investment, and import exports that support economic growth, this is what Pak Mahfud emphasized," he explained.

He is sure that the new programs offered by Ganjar-Mahfud have gone through careful budget simulations.
