The Minister explained that the bansos program aims to improve the welfare of the Indonesian people. The distribution of bansos is also carried out to maintain purchasing power and control inflation.

"During elections, we cannot stop everything because this is the needs of the people, not the needs of the elections. So, the government will continue because it is an effort to maintain purchasing power and reduce inflation," said the Minister at the Batununggal Sub-District Office, Bandung, West Java, on Friday.

He assured that there would be no political motives behind the distribution of bansos. This program is, in fact, a government initiative.

"Obviously, this is a government program and is directly given to the people," he emphasized.

Airlangga Hartarto mentioned that he does not want social assistance to be distributed inaccurately to its intended recipients.

"The distribution of Bulog rice assistance is in accordance with the President's directive. This 10-kilogram rice assistance is received by 22 million Beneficiary Families (KPM)," he concluded.
