President Jokowi explained that the government is currently designing a scheme to provide rice reserve food assistance to be continued in 2024.
If the budget is available and sufficient, food aid will be distributed again in early 2024.
The President also prepared additional social assistance for recipients of the Family Hope Program (PKH) which was distributed in November and December in the amount of Rp. 400,000.
"Later we will see everything in your account later in November and December there will be a total transfer of Rp. 400 thousand," said Jokowi.
When handing over the food aid, the President had a dialogue with one of the KPMs who questioned the fate of several of his neighbors who had not been registered as recipients of food assistance.
In fact, the neighbor is also not a recipient of the Family Hope Program (PKH).
"Can you or can you not get non-PKH (food assistance)?" asked one of the beneficiaries.

President Jokowi also said that every family that meets the requirements to get food assistance can register with the nearest government apparatus.
The Head of State said that the government had provided sufficient budget for the food aid.
"Actually, in terms of budget, it is still there, but if it is not registered, the service will be wrong, it's a pity to blame the service later. So the procedure must still be followed, it must be registered, it must be listed on the list of existing lists," said President Jokowi.
