Jakarta Social Agency Head, Iqbal Akbarudin said this assistance program is part of the Jakarta Provincial Government's commitment to maintain the sustainability of social protection programs for vulnerable groups.
KLJ, KPDJ, and KAJ Funds Disbursed for June 2025He ensured that aid was distributed to the right targets through strict data verification, source matching, and routine data updates with officers and RT administrators.
"Social Agency routinely updates data with social security officers and RT administrators to ensure recipient accuracy," he said, Monday (7/28).
PKD social assistance distribution refers to the Governor's Decree Number 541/2025 about Amendments to the Governor's Decree 270/2025 about Recipients and Amount of Social Assistance to Fulfill Basic Needs for Early Childhood, Elderly, and People with Disabilities.
Based on the Governor's Decree, PKD social assistance will be distributed to existing recipients, existing recipients whose 2024 enrollment was postponed, and new recipients. The breakdown of recipients in July 2025 includes 122,408 KLJ recipients, 15,105 KPDJ recipients, and 12,174 KAJ recipients.
In addition, 56,351 new recipients have been identified, consisting of 38,414 elderly people (KLJ), 4,489 people with disabilities (KPDJ), and 13,448 children (KAJ). However, the PKD social assistance funds for these new recipients cannot be disbursed until the collective account opening process at Bank Jakarta is complete.
For your information, based on Gubernatorial Regulation No. 44/2022 about the Provision of Social Assistance for Social Protection, one of the criteria for PKD social assistance recipients is registration in the DTKS (State Data Entity Data).
However, the DTKS registration feature is currently no longer available, as the DTKS has been transformed into the DTSEN based on Regulation of the Minister of Social Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia Number 3/2025 about the Updating and Use of the DTSEN for Social Assistance, Social Empowerment, and Social Welfare Programs.
Therefore, the DTKS determination process is no longer carried out since the issuance of Regulation 3 of 2025. Furthermore, the entire process of determining social assistance recipients is based on the welfare status recorded in the DTSEN.
The Jakarta Provincial Government also encourages the public to actively monitor the distribution of PKD social assistance to ensure it reaches its intended recipients in accordance with applicable regulations.
