MUKOMUKO - The Department of Community and Village Empowerment (DPMD) of Mukomuko Regency, Bengkulu Province said 53 of the 148 villages had applied for village fund distribution (DD) and the second phase of village fund allocation (ADD) of 60 percent. "Of the 53 villages proposed DD and ADD phase two from April 7 to June 7, 2024," said the Head of Village Government for the Community and Village Empowerment Office of Mukomuko Wagimin Regency reported by ANTARA, Sunday, June 16. Of the 53 villages, said Wagimin, the remaining DD application files belonging to six villages have not yet entered the Regional Finance Agency (BKD) because they are still in the verification process at the Mukomuko PMD Service.

In addition, he said, the ADD submission files belonging to five villages that have not been submitted to the BKD, but the files of these five villages are complete and are submitted to the BKD in the near future. Against the DD and ADD submission files that have been submitted since April and May to the BKD, he said, they have received the distribution of DD and ADD phase two.

Wagimin added that the reason the village has not submitted the disbursement of DD and ADD phase II was because the work constraints had not yet reached 60 percent, both physical work and food security activities. For villages that have not reached the 60 percent job target, he asked the village not to submit documents for submitting disbursement of DD and ADD to this service. Meanwhile, as many as 148 villages in the region this year received village funds worth Rp118 billion from the central government through the state budget, an increase of Rp1 billion compared to the previous year.
