The new government of Joko Widodo has raised the price of subsidized fuel for Rp.2.000. Of course it is very burdensome to the poor.
As usual the government have a right to reduce the impact of rising prices of subsidized fuel. The government launched a direct cash assistance to 27 million poor people who are spread all over Indonesia. The poor will get money Rp.400.000 per person per month for compensation for the transfer of the increase in fuel subsidies. Therefore, the government has budgeted money amounting to Rp 5 trillion.
Poor people will be greatly have got the funds, although only temporarily because people also bear the impact of rising fuel prices. Goods of daily needs will soon creep up following the rising price of oil. Cost of living increases after not raising their wages or salaries of civil servants and private.
Poor people can take the money in the post office, bringing with them the magic card show. On the first day of the money-making post offices will be crowded. This euphoria is highly anticipated poor people in Indonesia. Program providing direct cash assistance only lasted two months.
