JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung explained the reason he did not tamper with the budget for allowances for DKI Jakarta Provincial Government employees in the midst of cutting transfer funds to the regions (TKD) which includes profit-sharing funds (DBH) from the central government to Jakarta in the 2026 APBD.
If the allocation of personnel spending in the APBD is reduced and results in reducing the salaries or allowances of the state civil apparatus (ASN), Pramono is worried that this will reduce their work spirit.
"TPP (increase in employee income) for ASN, because this ASN will be cut off later, surely all of his faces will be gloomy, making the Governor not excited. So, I can't do anything about it," said Pramono at the AA Maramis building, Ministry of Finance, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, November 11.
In addition to ASN allowances, Pramono revealed that there were two other fund allocations that should not be contested in the Rp15 trillion DBH cuts.
Among them are the Jakarta Smart Card (KJP) distribution budget and the Jakarta Superior Student Card (KJMU). Assistance according to Pramono, greatly has an impact on the continuity of the education of hundreds of thousands of Jakarta students and students.
"The number of KJP is 707,920 students. You can't reduce a penny, the figure is Rp. 1.6 trillion. The second is for KJMU, the figure is approximately Rp. 380 billion," said Pramono.
Pramono explained that the allocation of the three APBD expenditures was maintained because he saw the condition of inequality or the ratio in Jakarta which was still wide. Pramono admits that this is still a weakness in Jakarta.
"One of the main factors in Jakarta is that all indications are positive, except for the Gini ratio. The difference in poor rich which then increased, from 0.39 to 0.421 last year," said Pramono.
"So, when our profit-sharing funds and APBD are cut by 15 trillion, there are three that should not be disturbed at all," he continued.
Therefore, to increase regional revenue sources, Pramono asked the ranks of the DKI Provincial Government to read other opportunities that were previously not used.
"Including things that were previously untouched: building area coefficients, SLF (function-worthy certificates), SP3L (a letter of approval from the principle of land acquisition/location), and so on. So much later we carried out reforms," added Pramono.
