Money support (provided) due to rising fuel costs sourced from the Yogyakarta city regional budget is meant for bad families who have not gotten any social assistance.
Yogyakarta – The government of Yogyakarta city is distributing fuel cash support (BLT BBM) sourced from its local budget plan (APBD) to 3,420 beneficiary families in the city.
” Cash assistance (offered) due to increasing fuel rates sourced from the Yogyakarta city regional budget plan is planned for poor families who have actually not received any social assistance,” head of the Yogyakarta City Social Workforce and Transmigration Workplace, Maryustion Tonang, stated here on Tuesday.
The data of the 3,420 beneficiary families has been confirmed and compared with information on target households for social defense insurance coverage (KSJPS), incorporated social well-being data (DTKS) in addition to information on recipients of other social support programs, such as the Family Hope Program (PKH), essential goods help, and fuel money help from the central government.
For that reason, Tonang guaranteed that those who have received fuel money assistance sourced from the state spending plan (APBN) will not get fuel cash help sourced from the regional budget.
” The hope is the social assistance distribution can be ideal on target,” he added.
