SURABAYA - A number of state civil servants (ASN) at the Surabaya City Government admitted that they were worried about the impact of additional employee income (TPP), which is usually routine every month, now in arrears for 2 months, February and March 2022.

"Some of my friends who are ASN in the city government want to borrow money. There are those who want to borrow Rp. 1 million rupiah, there are also those who want to borrow Rp. 2 million. After I asked what they were for, they answered to pay for motorbike loans because the TPP had not been disbursed," said member of Commission A for the Administration of the Surabaya DPRD, Imam Syafii, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, March 15.

In fact, he continued, one of the ASN was visited by a debt collection dealer at his place of work.

"It's a pity. They don't intend to be in arrears in installments. However, it's because the TPP has not been disbursed yet," said Imam.

According to Imam, TPP for ASN is very valuable because the scheme from the central government, TPP is greater in value than the basic salary.

He gave the example of ASN class 3C who get a basic salary of between Rp. 2 million to Rp. 3 million, while TPP is Rp. 8 million to Rp. 9 million.

"Once the TPP is not disbursed from February and March which is usually received around the 10th, they are confused," said Imam.

According to him, TPP arrears by the central government are also felt by ASN nationally. This follows changes in regulations and policies set by the central government in 2022. There are several stages that must be taken so that the TPP is immediately liquidated.

The mechanism starts from inputting data through the Simona application (Sector Monitoring and Evaluation Information System) of the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri), then the Organizational Bureau of the Ministry of Home Affairs conducts data validation.

If it is declared appropriate, he said, it will be followed by the submission of a certificate to the Director General of Regional Finance at the Ministry of Home Affairs.

After that, the process is submitted to the local government, then the application is made related to the use of the budget through the Regional Development Information System (SIPD). A number of regions have complained about the complexity of inputting data to Simona

However, Imam hopes that the Surabaya City Government will also think about and find solutions to these problems.

"When the TPP runs smoothly, you don't feel it, especially in Surabaya, there is a performance benefit or income tax paid every 3 months. However, when this TPP has not been paid, the ASN feel sorry for it," he said.

Imam is worried that the issue will have an impact on the performance of ASN in the Surabaya City Government if it is not resolved soon.

"I'm worried that he's running out of concentration thinking about this issue so that his work is not focused and his performance will decrease," he said.

Moreover, according to Imam, these ASNs are burdened by the Surabaya City Government to pay zakat 2.5 from their income and shop through the e-Peken application every month.

"Class 3, such as the lurah and the sub-district secretary, are deducted Rp. 1 million per month for e-Peken," he said.
