JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture (PMK) Muhadjir Effendy emphasized that the assistance of the Indonesia Smart Lecture Card (KIP-K) is only intended for children who come from underprivileged groups. He said that KIP-K is a continuous program of KIP at the level of schools, which is intended for children from underprivileged families, whose details can be checked through Basic Education Data (Dapodik) "It is clear that those who receive it are the poor and those who are orphans who are prioritized," said Coordinating Minister Muhadjir Effendy when met in Jakarta, Tuesday 30 April, confiscated by Antara. Coordinating Minister Muhadjir said that if there were KIP recipients who did not comply with the criteria, the recipients who were proven to violate the provisions must return what had been obtained, because this violates the provisions. "If suddenly there is a rich person's child who receives KIP, who can be chased, who can be easily, can be prosecuted," said Coordinating Minister Muhadjir.

Muhadjir appealed to the public if they get KIP recipients who do not comply with the provisions to report to the relevant education unit to be able to be processed further. To note, it was viral on social media X, information related to a KIP-K recipient showing off items that are considered quite luxurious for someone who belongs to the KIP recipient group. KIP should be given to students who are included in four priorities, including SMA/equivalent KIP holders, recorded in the Integrated Social Welfare Data (DTKS) or PKH Social Assistance Recipients or KKS, and children in orphanages/social institutions. In addition, it comes from poor/poor families with a combined income of parents/guardians less than or equal to Rp4,000,000 every month or a joint gross income of parents/guardians divided into a maximum number of family members of Rp750,000 per person with proof of Incapable Certificate (SKTM).
