The Minister of Cooperatives, Ferry Juliantono, stated that the\ncross-regional placement of managers for the Merah Putih\nVillage\/Sub-district Cooperatives (KDKMP) is being implemented to ensure\nthe even distribution of managerial human resources across all\nregions.<\/p>\n
Following a Limited Coordination Meeting in Jakarta on Tuesday, Ferry\nexplained that these placements are also intended to meet the demand for\nmanagers in areas where KDKMP buildings have been completed, allowing\nthe cooperatives to commence operations immediately, according to a\nministry press release.<\/p>\n
Ferry added that managers who object to being placed far from their\npermanent residence will not be immediately disqualified; they can\nmaintain their status while awaiting placement solutions. He urged\nmanagers who have already received placement decrees (SK) outside their\nhome regions to accept these initial assignments. Once the construction\nof KDKMP in their home regions is finished, their placements will be\nadjusted back to their domiciles.<\/p>\n
Ferry emphasised that cross-regional placement is necessary to fill\nhuman resource gaps in areas where cooperative buildings are finished\nand require management.<\/p>\n
He also confirmed that managers who choose to resign will not face\nsanctions, noting that the number of resignations so far has not been\nsignificant.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Coordinating Minister for Food, Zulkifli Hasan, stated\nthat managers who have received placements should accept the assignments\nto ensure their status as workers under Fixed-Term Employment Agreements\n(PKWT) for two years under Agrinas Pangan Nusantara remains valid.<\/p>\n
\u201cOnce the cooperatives near your domicile are completed, the location\nwill be adjusted. Therefore, your status will not be forfeited,\u201d said\nZulkifli.<\/p>\n
He noted that KDKMP managers will begin their placements according to\ntheir respective work areas on 1 October 2026.<\/p>\n
KDKMP managers will receive an income of approximately Rp6.3 million\nto Rp8.3 million, consisting of salary and allowances in accordance with\nthe local minimum wage (UMK).<\/p>\n
These managers will manage the cooperatives as part of the\ngovernment\u2019s infrastructure to support the distribution of subsidies and\ngovernment assistance, as well as village economic development.<\/p>\n
A total of 28,620 KDKMP managers received their placement decrees\nfrom PT Agrinas Pangan Nusantara on 25 September 2026 and were requested\nto provide confirmation by 28 September 2026. The managers are scheduled\nto begin active duty at their respective locations in early October\n2026.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/cooperative-minister-cross-regional-manager-placement-aimed-at-human-resource-distribution-1790694052", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
