Mirdiyanti explained that the program is an effort to establish Posyandu as a forum for community participation as well as a partner of the urban village government in planning, implementing and supervising development, as well as improving urban village services.

The launching was held online and offline. The offline activity was held at Posyandu RW 06, Makasar Urban Village, Makasar Sub-district, East Jakarta. Then the online activity was held at five Posyandus in other administrative areas. About 750 participants from various elements attended the launching.

"Posyandu has now developed with a six-field SPMs approach in all urban villages. The support of the JAKI application from the Jakarta Provincial Government will also optimize Posyandu services while making it easier for the public to file complaints and access various services in these six-field SPMs," she added.

Meanwhile, the General Chairperson of Posyandu Tri Tito Karnavian said that posyandu is the beginning of development or government programs that can reach the community directly. Jakarta was chosen as the initial location because the wider community can easily access information related to Jakarta.

"That is why we are trying to make Jakarta as national pilot project. People from other regions will be easier to find out about this project," he said.
