TULUNGAGUNG - The government has handed over 82 three-wheeled vehicles to support the operations of 41 Red and White Village Cooperatives (KDMP) in Tulungagung Regency, East Java.
The distribution is carried out in line with the acceleration of the development of cooperative outlets which are targeted to be completed and start operating in August 2026.
The commander of Kodim 0807 Tulungagung, Lieutenant Colonel Arh Hanny Galih Satrio, who led the ceremony for the handover of 82 units of KDKMP operational three-wheeled vehicles together with the Acting Regent of Tulungagung, Ahmad Baharudin, said that each recipient of the Red and White Cooperative would receive two vehicles used to support the distribution and operational activities of the cooperative.
According to him, out of a total of 41 KDMP recipients in the initial phase, 37 outlets have been completed, while the other four are still in the completion phase by the construction implementer.
"After being distributed, vehicles can be stored at each outlet. For those whose construction is not yet complete and does not have a storage space, they can be deposited at the nearest KDMP," said Galih as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, May 26.
He explained that some of the outlets that had been built were not yet fully ready to operate because they were still waiting for the completion of supporting facilities, including storefronts and filling goods.
In the first phase, the construction of KDMP outlets in Tulungagung is targeted to reach 140 units. All outlets are targeted to be completed and ready to operate in August 2026.
"The target is that all the first phase outlets will be completed and ready to operate in August 2026," he said.
Meanwhile, Acting Regent of Tulungagung Ahmad Baharudin hopes that the acceleration of the development of KDMP can have an impact on strengthening the community's economy through cooperative activities at the village level.
He added that the development of KDMP is currently still focused on the village area, while for the sub-district, it is still waiting for certainty regarding the rules related to the use of available land.
"We hope that all development targets can be achieved so that the economic benefits of the existence of KDMP can be immediately felt by the community," said Ahmad Baharudin.
