The Directorate General of Treasury (DJPb) of Bengkulu Province said that the realization of the distribution of the Physical Special Allocation Fund (DAK) reached Rp861.8 billion or 92.4 percent of the ceiling of Rp932.7 billion.

"The distribution of physical DAK is quite good this year. But with a note, it will be repaired next year and try to use the ceiling as a Contract Draft (RK) 100 percent, from RK to a contract, try to get 100 percent," said Head of the Bengkulu Provincial DJPb Regional Office Syarwan quoted from Antara, Monday, December 26.

With the distribution of physical DAK 2022 which has not yet reached 100 percent, he requested that distribution in 2023 be maximized again, and even 100 percent of the budget ceiling can be absorbed.

Therefore, the local government (Pemda) must continue to coordinate with the relevant ministries so that the distribution of physical DAK 2023 can be 100 percent.

He said the absorption of the 2022 Physical DAK in each local government in Bengkulu was distributed by an average of about 90 percent of the ceiling provided by the central government.

Thus, as much as Rp25 billion of the physical DAK budget in 2022 cannot be distributed.

Regarding budget procurement in 2023, it can be adjusted to the provisions of budget ceilings such as through general auctions, limited auctions or also through e-catalogs.

"For local governments, please, if possible, don't just rely on e-catalog, because the average e-catalog appears in April. This means that if we wait for the e-catalog, then we will absorb it in April and this is our common concern. So please friends from the local government to immediately absorb the budget at the beginning of the year," said Syarwan.
