JAKARTA - The Post-Disaster Rehabilitation and Reconstruction (PRR) Task Force for Sumatra has now entered the stage of realizing the construction of Permanent Housing (huntap) for survivors of disasters in Aceh, North Sumatra (North Sumatra), and West Sumatra (Sumbar).
The Minister of Home Affairs (Mendagri) and Chairman of the Post-disaster Rehabilitation and Reconstruction (PRR) Task Force for Sumatra, Tito Karnavian, emphasized the government's commitment to prioritizing the acceleration of Huntap development.
Therefore, he stated that he would continue to demand the completeness of the data from the regent and governor so that the construction process would not be hampered by administrative constraints.
"The number one speed of building Huntap is data from the local government. This must be asked one by one by the residents. I will definitely chase the regent, the governor will definitely chase the data preparation," said Tito in his statement in Jakarta, Friday, quoted by Antara.
Based on the data of the PRR Task Force as of February 26, the construction of Huntap in three disaster-affected areas in Sumatra is planned to be 17,969 units, and 401 units have been built. The construction of Huntap was carried out after the PRR Task Force completed most of the Temporary Housing (Huntara).
The details of the construction of Huntap in the three provinces, among others: of the 9,430 units of Huntap planned to be built for survivors in Aceh, 104 units are in the development process. Then, of the 4,493 units planned to be built for survivors in North Sumatra, 524 units are in the development process. This number increased compared to last week which amounted to 297 units per February 20.
Meanwhile in West Sumatra, of the 4,046 Huntap units planned to be built for survivors, as many as 817 units are in the development process. This number is increasing compared to the previous 655 units as of February 20.
This figure shows that the construction of Huntap is still in the early stages of construction, considering that the construction process of permanent housing requires land preparation, technical planning, and permanent infrastructure in accordance with the standards of disaster-resistant buildings which are more complex than Huntara.
The development of Huntap is carried out in parallel by cross-sectors, including the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB), the National Police, the Ministry of Housing and Settlements (PKP), the Tzu Chi Foundation, the Coordinating Ministry for Political and Security Affairs, the National Zakat Foundation (Baznas), Danantara, and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin).
