Minister of Home Affairs, Muhammad Tito Karnavian, has affirmed his\ncommitment to supporting the realisation of the three million homes\nprogramme initiated by President Prabowo Subianto. The policy is\nconsidered strategic for improving the welfare of the people.<\/p>\n
He also asked regional leaders to seize the opportunity by utilising\nthe programme to help the community.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis actually helps regional leaders as well. Because one of the\ntasks of regional leaders is to improve the welfare and dignity of their\nrespective communities,\u201d said Tito, in a written statement, Wednesday\n(25\/2\/2026).<\/p>\n
Tito conveyed this during the Coordination Meeting for Accelerating\nHousing and Settlement Development in the Main Meeting Room, Ministry of\nHome Affairs (Kemendagri), Jakarta.<\/p>\n
He emphasised that the initiative is a joint programme involving the\ncentral and regional governments. In addition, the programme also aims\nto enable people to own homes at affordable prices.<\/p>\n
Tito affirmed that his party is committed to continuously supporting\nthe implementation of the programme. One of the ways is through the\npolicy of exempting fees for Building Approval Permits (PBG) and Land\nand Building Acquisition Tax (BPHTB) for low-income people (MBR).<\/p>\n
\u201cSo that the price of these houses is cheap (affordable for MBR).\nDevelopers sell at a lower price with exemptions for PBG and BPHTB. But\nthis PBG and BPHTB must be regulated by a Regional Regulation. We have\nchecked, and the Regional Regulations are all in order,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
He said that the programme needs to be maximised by local governments\nso that more people can benefit from it. Specifically, the steps that\ncan be taken by local governments are to carry out massive socialisation\nof the programme.<\/p>\n
In addition, local governments can also optimise the Public Service\nMall (MPP), which provides PBG and BPHTB licensing services.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose who have this will be helped, those who have a Public Service\nMall. Because PBG and BPHTB have outlets that can be completed quickly.\nIn fact, some can be completed in just one day or even a few minutes,\u201d\ncontinued Tito.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/minister-of-home-affairs-encourages-regional-leaders-to-successfully-implement-the-3-million-homes-programme-1772044333", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
