NTT - East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) Governor Viktor Bungtilu Laiskodat asked for rice assistance for the Community Activity Restriction (PPKM) program during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is good quality rice that is fit for consumption.
"Distribute to the community the rice of the best quality and suitable for consumption. I ask the Social Service to check this properly, if the quality is bad, return it," he said in Kupang, quoted from Antara, Saturday, July 24.
He said this was related to the distribution of PPKM rice assistance to the people of NTT which was prepared by the NTT Logistics Affairs Agency (Bulog) and distributed through PT Pos Indonesia. The provincial government recorded the number of beneficiaries of PPKM rice assistance in NTT as many as 524,265 families.
Governor Viktor asked Bulog NTT to prepare the best quality rice for the community.
According to him, the condition of the community is currently difficult due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so don't make it more difficult with the help of poor quality rice.
He also asked that the pattern of aid and distribution be clearly designed with regard to various aspects such as assistance instructions, time estimation, implementation in the field, obstacles, and so on.
"Create a clear distribution design so that this aid is right on target and the community feels the benefits," he said.
Furthermore, Governor Viktor said that according to President Joko Wiodo's direction, the rice aid must be distributed to the beneficiaries as soon as possible.
If there are problems, the party responsible for the distribution must immediately find a solution.
Governor Viktor hopes that the rice aid will be distributed in a not too long time and to the community according to the target.
"Don't be late because the community will definitely need this assistance. I ask that the recipient data be adjusted to the data available at the provincial Social Service," he said.
