Mainly related to the provision of social assistance or social assistance.

Muhadjir said the government could not bear it alone. He hopes that all parties can work together to help other residents in need.

Based on this statement, Member of Commission VIII of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Bukhori Yusuf, assessed that the state had failed in handling COVID-19. He also deeply regretted Muhadjir's statement.

According to him, the statement of the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture without an apology and sincere acknowledgment for the inability to control the impact of COVID-19 has made people distrustful.

"Therefore, it is better for the government to apologize to the people for controlling COVID, which has not been able to control the pace of COVID, aka failed," said Bukhori to reporters, Friday, July 16.

Only then, he continued, invites the community to jointly face this situation, especially the economic impact that has touched the kitchens of each household, some of which number in the tens of millions.

"In my opinion, the current situation has entered into an extra emergency, especially when the implementation of PPKM will be extended so that it will result in many people who need logistical assistance or basic necessities just to make a living," said the chairman of the PKS DPP.
