        "content": "<p>Jakarta \u2014 Ahead of the celebration of Eid al-Fitr 1447 Hijriah, the\nbanking sector and regional governments across Indonesia are\ncollaborating to strengthen financial infrastructure to meet surging\npublic demand.<\/p>\n<p>PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, or BNI, has taken significant\nsteps by preparing cash liquidity of Rp23.97 trillion. BNI\u2019s Corporate\nSecretary, Okki Rushartomo, explained on Friday that these funds have\nbeen strategically allocated, with Rp16.64 trillion designated for\nrefilling ATMs and CRMs, whilst the remaining Rp7.33 trillion has been\nreserved for transactions at branch offices across Indonesia.<\/p>\n<p>This surge in cash withdrawals is forecast to reach Rp1.71 trillion\ndaily, coinciding with the disbursement of Eid allowances (Tunjangan\nHari Raya) and heightened consumer shopping activity. To anticipate the\npeak holiday travel period, BNI will continue to operate select branch\noffices with limited hours on 20 and 23 March 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond physical services, BNI is optimising over 217,000 Agent46\noutlets and the wondr by BNI digital application, which has reached 12.7\nmillion users, to ensure transactions proceed smoothly without requiring\ncustomers to visit branch offices.<\/p>\n<p>This drive towards digitalisation extends beyond the national banking\nlevel and reaches remote villages in South Kalimantan. The Hulu Sungai\nUtara (HSU) district government, in partnership with Bank Kalsel, is\ncommitted to expanding digital financial access for communities in swamp\nand aquatic regions.<\/p>\n<p>HSU Regent H Saharudjani emphasised that financial inclusion is the\nfoundation for equitable economic growth, ensuring local creativity such\nas residents\u2019 handicrafts remain connected to broader markets through\nmodern economic ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p>Bank Kalsel has introduced two major innovations: the Aksel\napplication and the Digital Financial Inclusion Agent Service (ADINK).\nThese innovations provide practical solutions for farmers and traders in\nremote areas to deposit cash and pay routine bills such as property tax\nand water charges without travelling long distances.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of this Laku Pandai service is expected to minimise the\ndisparity in banking access between urban and rural areas, thereby\nstrengthening regional economic resilience in the face of market\ndynamics.<\/p>",
