JAKARTA - The Minister of Home Affairs (Mendagri) Muhammad Tito Karnavian asked his line of ministries to check the realization of regional government expenditures (Pemda) every month.
"I ask the Director General (Director General) of Regional Finance (Agus Fatoni), and the Director General of Regional Development (Bina Pembangunan Daerah, Restuardy Daud) if possible for 1 month," Tito said at the 2025 Development Planning Technical Coordination Meeting (Rakortekrenbang) reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, March 12.
This is done so that the Ministry of Home Affairs knows which areas are slow in the realization of spending and increasing their income.
In particular, the Minister of Home Affairs asked the local government to continue shopping every month or not in the last three months, namely October December.
"If you use this method, the money circulating in the community is less than in the first 9 months. In fact, this government spending is the main expenditure that makes the circulation of money in the community, and attracts the private sector," he explained.

In addition, if the money circulating in the community is reduced, according to him, it could result in a decrease in household consumption.
"This household consumption contributes more than 50 percent of the economic growth rate. Therefore, please colleagues per 3 months, it is targeted that how much the budget will be spent," said Tito.
The Minister of Home Affairs suggested that local governments be able to shop with a scheme of 20-30-30 per quarter.
"Don't be 5'10 percent in the first 3 months, 5 percent in the second quarter, the next 10 percent will only be boosted at the end of the year," he said,
On that occasion, Tito appreciated the Banten Provincial Government for the realization of spending in the 2025 fiscal year as of March 7, 2025, which has reached 10.74 percent.
