00:00Minister of State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi affirmed that President Prabowo Subianto's instruction to the Ministry of State and the regional government
00:12about saving budget does not mean that the budget in each Ministry of State is cut.
00:18He said that the savings are used to accelerate the priority program that is evenly distributed in each region.
00:26Therefore, it is important for the Ministry and the institutions, including the regional government,
00:30to be able to reduce the activity or travel expenses in non-priority areas up to 50 percent.
00:37That was stated in a press conference held after the departure of President Prabowo to India
00:44at the TNI-AU base, Halim Perdana Kusuma, Jakarta, on Thursday, January 23.
00:50The activities such as seminars, study banding, job hunting, can be reduced.
00:57Then, the travel expenses for the ministries are about 10 trillion.
01:03If we save, it can be used for something much more productive.
01:07I think that's the motivation.
01:08So, there is no KL friends who feel that it is reduced.
01:13I think this is our common spirit.
01:16Further on, the Ministry of State explained that the budget obtained from the savings of travel expenses
01:22can be allocated, one of which is to support the free meal program, MBG,
01:28so that it can reach all regions in Indonesia.
01:32The budget savings were also included in President No. 1's 2025 instruction
01:38on the efficiency of spending in the APBN and APBD.
