JAKARTA - Deputy Coordinator of Special Staff for the Governor of DKI Jakarta Yustinus Prastowo said that the placement of funds from the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) to Bank Jakarta had been disbursed amounting to Rp1 trillion. This program is similar to the placement of funds from the Ministry of Finance to banks hebara.

"The placement of funds from the central government to Himbara for Bank Jakarta, we get Rp1 trillion. This is probably the beginning of this Rp1 trillion, because while looking at our ability to absorb," said Prastowo at DKI Jakarta City Hall, Friday, November 22.

Prastowo revealed that the disbursement of the placement of funds to the regional development bank (BPD) belonging to the DKI Provincial Government had been going on since two weeks ago. Now, the funds have been fully absorbed for lending.

"As far as the report we received yesterday from the President Director of Bank Jakarta, it has been absorbed 100 percent for BUMD (other) and MSMEs," said Prastowo.

Prastowo revealed that the placement of funds from the Ministry of Finance did not stop here. Given, the Minister of Finance, Purbaya Yudhi Sadive, revealed that he would disburse funds of up to IDR 10 trillion for Bank Jakarta.

"We have reported it to the Ministry of Finance. We will wait for it from the Ministry of Finance. But if the absorption is good, we can also get additional. We will join the center," he explained.

Previously, Purbaya Purbaya Yudhi Sadivewa offered to distribute more budget balance funds at Bank Indonesia amounting to Rp10 trillion for Bank Jakarta, such as the distribution of Rp200 trillion to state-owned bank ensembles (himbara).

This was conveyed by Purbaya when meeting with the Governor of DKI Jakarta Pramono Anung at the DKI Jakarta City Hall who also discussed the continuation of the reduction in funds for the transfer of the central government to the regions.

"There is one thing I think about in addition, right. Jakarta has a Bank Jakarta. I put it in Himbara, which is 200 trillion, what if I add a few tens of trillions to Bank Jakarta?" said Purbaya, Tuesday, October 7.

Purbaya then asked Pramono whether Bank Jakarta was able to absorb the funds as lending to the public within the specified deadline.

"Can Bank Jakarta absorb it? Don't let me give money, keep panicking. Wow. (Then) I can't distribute it," said Purbaya.

"But if it's only 10 trillion, 20 trillion, you can do it to absorb it. Later it will spread to MSMEs and other industries in Jakarta and elsewhere," he continued.
