JAKARTA - Head of DKI Jakarta Regional Owned Enterprise Development Agency (BP BUMD) Faisal Syafruddin appealed to DKI BUMD not to provide holiday allowances (THR) to employees, the board of commissioners, and its board of directors.

Faisal encouraged the allocation of THR costs to be diverted for the use of activities or humanitarian donations for COVID-19 countermeasures such as the distribution of basic food social assistance to the community.

If they continue to provide THR, Faisal suggested that BUMD cut or postpone payments in the following months.

Faisal said, this appeal was made because economic conditions were disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When many people have activities at home and use of public facilities decreases, BUMD's income automatically decreases.

"We believe that steps are needed to minimize the impact on BUMD finances and increase the sensitivity and social awareness of BUMD officials," said Faisal in a written statement received by VOI, Tuesday, May 12.

Meanwhile, Secretary of BP BUMD DKI Riyadi emphasized that the appeal to DKI BUMD is not a force. Because, BUMD is also required to eliminate, cut, or postpone THR payments, so there must be a strong legal basis.

"The name is an appeal, if it is implemented, then thank God, thank God. But, despite the appeal, it seems that there are several BUMDs that have already implemented it," said Riyadi while handing over to each BUMD to carry out technical cuts to delay the THR to employees.

"Which one needs to be chosen, for example cut or postponed, which employees are not necessary. Right, there are also employees who are of low rank, there are those with higher income who have higher income," he explained.

The following is a list of BUMDs that have received an appeal for THR allocation: 1. Perumda Pasar Jaya 2. Perumda Pembangunan Sarana Jaya 3. PDAM Jaya 4. PD Dharma Jaya 5. PD PAL Jaya 6. PT Jakarta Propertindo7. PT MRT Jakarta 8. PT Bank DKI 9. PT Food Station Tjipinang Jaya 10. PT Jakarta Tourisindo 11. PT Jamkrida Jakarta 12. PT Pembangunan Jaya Ancol 13.
