At his home in Kampung Rawa, Jakarta, Hairiah has a business that supplements his income as an optician: He sells basic commodities at Elektronik Warung Gotong Royong (e-Warong), a 'store' complete with ATMs to serve the disbursement of social assistance funds.
As a result, Johar Baru residents are able to obtain welfare assistance for rice, sugar, cooking oil and wheat flour with just a swipe of the Family Welfare Card (KKS). With an electronic data capture (EDC) equipment from Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI), Hairiah can also serve KKS holders who want to pay electricity, telephone, or water billseven loan installments. "They come in, swipe their cards and bring home the goods," Hairiah said last Tuesday.
Marina Ratna Dwi Kusumajati's voice began to rise in a meeting attended by dozens of beef importers in Jakarta last week. The meeting concerned the dissemination of Minister of Agriculture Regulation No. 34/2016 on permits for imports of meat, carcasses and offal. The regulation is set to begin in the second half of the year.
The CEO of Dharma Jaya, an entity owned by the Jakarta provincial government, questioned the ease by which the agriculture ministry had changed its stance. "I agree to imports remaining open, but it must be regulated. If it is unrestricted, what about protecting local farmers?" she asked.
