JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Deputy Governor Ahmad Riza Patria confirmed that the dual data matching of social assistance (bansos) will be completed in the near future.

“There is indeed double data, data that is rice, which we received with data that we doubled, doubled, and it is being matched. Insyaallah it will be finished in some time. That's a small data, approximately 5 percent, hopefully in the next few days it can be resolved properly," Riza told reporters, Friday, August 6.

Riza said the DKI Provincial Government would update the data every 6 months. For what is currently happening, the DKI Provincial Government is matching data on cash assistance to rice.

"This year, because yesterday there was cash social assistance, there was data on 10 kilograms of rice assistance from the Ministry of Social Affairs, from us and from Bulog, so this needs to be matched. Because each data has a difference of almost 5 percent or less, this is being resolved as best as possible, God willing, there will be no problems, we are sure that all those who are entitled to receive cash social assistance and rice assistance, "he continued.

As previously reported, there are still more than 99 thousand DKI residents who have not received BST distribution because the dual data matching of beneficiaries has not been resolved between the DKI Provincial Government and the Ministry of Social Affairs.

It is known that the DKI Provincial Government is still holding BST stages 5 and 6 to 99,450 KPM until now. From 1,007,379 targets, DKI has only distributed BST to 907,616 KPM. Head of the DKI Social Service, Premi Lasari, explained that the reason the Provincial Government withheld the distribution of BST was because nearly 100 thousand KPMs were registered in the targets of the two distributors, namely the DKI Provincial Government and the Ministry of Social Affairs.
