JAKARTA - Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Abdul Muhaimin Iskandar alias Cak Imin proposed adding village funds to Rp5 billion in each village.

According to him, budgeting can optimize the completion of extreme poverty in villages. "Village funds must be added if development wants to be effective and free of corruption. The only way is an enlarged village fund. The minimum addition of Rp5 billion is to overcome problems, such as stunting and extreme poverty," said Cak Imin in a written statement, Sunday, June 18, confiscated by Antara. Cak Imin conveyed this when visiting Rengaspendawa Village, Larangan District, Brebes Regency, Central Java, Sunday, June 18.

Next, he continued, the addition of village funds of five times that currently around Rp. 1 billion will make villages in Indonesia developed and independent. In addition, the addition of village funds can also eliminate disadvantaged and severely lagging villages. "If the government wants to achieve the target of zero percent extreme poverty by 2024 and zero percent stunting by 2030, the prerequisite is that villages must become national development centers," he said. According to Cak Imin, additional village funds can be made if the budget allocation of food security reaches more than Rp. 100 trillion, the social protection budget of Rp476 trillion, and the energy security subsidy of Rp. 341 trillion from the 2023 State Budget is maximized by the relevant ministries/agencies. "If relocated and maximized, village funds can be added to Rp5 billion per village," he said.
