JAKARTA - Deputy Speaker of the Indonesian House of Representatives Muhaimin Iskandar stated that village funds were allocated to build Indonesia from the outskirts.
"The use of village funds has had a very big impact on the people of Indonesia and has become a proud achievement," said Muhaimin, Antara, Thursday, May 18.
Muhaimin explained that since the first launch of the program, it has become one of the milestones for community development.
"No longer consider the village as a suburban area, but make the village the front homepage for development," he said.
He said the village was proven to have been able to manage village funds well for village development, as mandated by Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning villages.
"Everyone believes that the village is able to manage the village budget well," he said.
He gave an example during the COVID-19 pandemic, social assistance fell quickly and on target through village funds. This proves that village funds are a strong economic cushion in the midst of the crisis faced by the Indonesian people.
"This cannot be separated from the good management and distribution of all village heads throughout Indonesia," he said.
This statement was conveyed by Muhaimin when he was a keynote speech seminar entitled advocacy for village and rural development policies within the framework of the village law, in Ujung Semi, Kendal Regency, Central Java, Thursday.

Muhaimin believes that development will be successful, if village funds can be channeled at the most end of development, namely in the village.
"The more village funds that are disbursed, I am sure that prosperity will be realized," he said.
In the seminar, Muhaimin had asked the village head's ability to manage village funds of up to IDR 5 billion.
"If later the village funds become Rp5 billion, it is still light, but if it is Rp10 billion. Of course this requires intelligence from the village head to manage it," he said.
He hopes that village heads throughout Indonesia must be more sophisticated in implementing the budget, because the village heads will determine whether or not development will be successful.
