Melynda Dwi Puspita, Jakarta – Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati announced that President Prabowo Subianto's 11 priority programs will require Rp446.24 trillion from the state budget (APBN).

Citing Antara, the minister said the APBN is continuously optimized as a shock absorber to protect public purchasing power, create jobs, support businesses, and sustain economic growth momentum. This is being implemented through a range of countercyclical economic policies.

The 11 flagship programs and their allocated budgets are:

7. Free Health Checks (CKG/PKG): Rp3.4 trillion
8. Tuberculosis Eradication: Rp1.5 trillion
9. Quality Hospital Construction: Rp1.7 trillion
10. Food Estates: Rp23.6 trillion
11. Dam and Irrigation Development: Rp20.5 trillion

The government has also begun disbursing the 13th-month salary for civil servants (ASN), including civil service employees (PNS), contract-based government workers (PPPK), military personnel (TNI), police (Polri), and retirees.

As of 16:00 Monday, June 2, the central government had disbursed Rp10.54 trillion to 1.79 million ASN. This includes:

  • Rp5.5 trillion for 715,030 PNS/state officials
  • Rp2.68 trillion for 492,900 TNI personnel
  • Rp380 billion for 99,350 PPPK staff
  • Rp110 billion for 14,760 non-civil servant government workers (PPNPN)
  • Rp1.86 trillion for 472,740 Polri members

The 13th-month pension payment has reached Rp10.54 trillion for 3.18 million retirees, or 86.78% of the total. PT Taspen (Persero) disbursed Rp10.11 trillion and PT Asabri (Persero) disbursed Rp430 billion.

For local government employees, Rp100 billion has been distributed to 20,890 people, but so far only 3 out of 546 regional governments have completed their disbursement.

In addition, the government has launched an economic stimulus package worth Rp24.44 trillion to support growth and economic stability.

"With these efforts, we hope the state budget can optimally protect the Indonesian people and economy from ongoing global turbulence and economic downturns," Sri Mulyani said.
