JAKARTA - Member of Commission X DPR Muhammad Hilman Mufidi fully supports the policy of the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology (Kemendiktisaintek) which waives the payment of Single Lecture Money (UKT) in the first and 2 semesters for students affected by flooding in Aceh and other Sumatra areas.
However, he warned that the exemption of UKT money for disaster victims must be right on target.
"This UKT release must really be given to students affected by the flood. Do not let anyone who is not entitled to receive this facility, while those who are entitled to be missed," Hilman told reporters, Wednesday, December 10.
Hilman also asked the Ministry of Education and Technology to carry out the data collection process accurately, transparently, and thoroughly. According to him, data validation is the key so that education assistance is right on target and can be felt by students in need.
"We ask the Ministry of Education and Technology to collect data correctly and appropriately, so that this UKT exemption policy can really touch students affected by the flood disaster," he said.
As a partner of the Ministry of Education and Technology, continued Hilman, Commission X of the DPR ensures that it will carry out strict supervision of the implementation of this policy.
He emphasized that Commission X is committed to ensuring that all education policies run according to procedures and provide optimal benefits for the community.
"Commission X will carry out its supervisory function. We want to make sure this policy goes right, the benefits are felt by students, and are not misused," said Hilman.
