        "summary": "A Jakarta DPRD member, Hardiyanto Kenneth, has called on migrants arriving in the capital to come equipped with skills, clear goals, and a readiness to contribute productively, rather than arriving aimlessly and becoming a social burden. He highlighted the annual influx of newcomers during the post-Eid reverse flow and encouraged them to bring an investment spirit, such as starting small businesses or empowering MSMEs, to support Jakarta's economy and government programmes. The provincial government and DPRD are pushing for directed urbanisation policies, including strengthening origin economies and enhancing workforce skills, to ensure migrants integrate as solutions rather than problems.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - Jakarta DPRD member Hardiyanto Kenneth stated that\nJakarta\u2019s openness does not mean without limits or direction, so\nnewcomers need to have essential preparations and thorough readiness\nbefore seeking their fortune in the capital city of Jakarta.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNew migrants must truly prepare themselves well. The essential\nprovisions they must have are skills, competencies, and clear\nobjectives,\u201d said Kenneth in Jakarta on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, behind the tradition of Eid al-Fitr homecoming,\nthere is an annual phenomenon, namely the increase in new migrants to\nJakarta during the reverse flow.<\/p>\n<p>He emphasised that Jakarta is indeed an open city, but not for those\nwho come without direction, so as not to end up becoming a social\nburden.<\/p>\n<p>According to Bang Kent, the familiar nickname for Hardiyanto Kenneth,\ncoming to Jakarta is not enough with just recklessness. Migrants are\nexpected to have a well-thought-out plan and a sincere intention to\ncontribute productively, not just trying their luck.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the Member of Commission C of the Jakarta DPRD\nencouraged migrants to also bring an investment spirit, no matter how\nsmall the form. He assessed that such steps could become real\ncontributions in driving regional economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf possible, coming to Jakarta should also bring the spirit to\nstrive, for example by starting independent businesses, empowering MSMEs\n(Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises), or even creating jobs. This will\ngreatly help the economy while supporting the Jakarta Government\u2019s\nprogrammes,\u201d said Kent.<\/p>\n<p>Kent assessed that such conditions not only harm individuals but also\nimpact public order and Jakarta\u2019s image as a metropolitan city.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, he emphasised that Jakarta remains open to anyone who\nwants to come and strive, as long as they have readiness,\nresponsibility, and clear objectives.<\/p>\n<p>The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government along with the DPRD apparatus,\nhe continued, continues to push for more directed urbanisation policies\nthrough strengthening the economy in the areas of origin, improving\nworkforce skills, and social supervision in the capital region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe that with good intentions and hard work, migrants can\nbecome part of the solution, not a burden. Jakarta is not just a place\nto seek a livelihood, but also a space to contribute and grow together,\u201d\nKent stressed.<\/p>",
