The Central Jakarta Social Sub-agency distributed three types of social assistance cards for residents in its area.

We'll distribute the rest in stages

Central Jakarta Social Sub-agency's Administration Sub-agency Head, Rian Permana Putra said three types of cards had been distributed in stages since August 22.

Those three cards were Jakarta Child Card (KAJ), Jakarta Elderly Card (KLJ), and Disability Card (KPDJ).

This Week, KAJ and KLJ Distribution in North Jakarta Completed

In total, he explained, as many as 9,794 Central Jakarta residents would receive cards with details of 899 KAJs, 8,133 KLJs, and 762 KPDJs.

From that number, 9,440 of the cards had been distributed with details of 879 KAJs, 7,848 KLJs, and 713 KPDJs.

"Not all of it has been realized yet," he expressed, Monday (9/25).

There were several problems in the field which meant that not all the cards had been distributed. These included the card recipients not being present, the recipient's representative who was going to collect the card not bringing a power of attorney, different names on the Family Card, and the card recipient having died.

“We'll distribute the rest in stages. Our target is 100 percent distribution until stage three," he explained.

Hopefully, its distribution could be useful for recipients in meeting their basic daily needs.

"Also they can make use of these cards as good as possible," he hoped.
