The Lombok Tengah Regency Government in West Nusa Tenggara Province (NTB) has confirmed that the thirteenth month salary for Civil Servants (ASN) for the 2026 fiscal year will be disbursed in accordance with regulations. An allocation of Rp42 billion has been set aside to cover the entitlements of approximately 11,420 civil servants in the region.

Lombok Tengah’s Secretary of the Region (Sekda), Lalu Firman Wijaya, stated that the budget preparation for the thirteenth month salary is similar to the previous Eid al-Fitr Holiday Allowance (THR) allocation. The funds are designated for both Civil Servants (PNS) and Government Employees with Employment Contracts (PPPK).

“The budget for the thirteenth month salary has been prepared. The total amount is comparable to the Rp42 billion allocated for Eid al-Fitr Holiday Allowance,” said Lalu Firman Wijaya in Lombok Tengah on Monday (1 June).

He explained that the thirteenth month salary is government support to assist ASN families with education costs ahead of the new school year. Therefore, disbursement is scheduled for June or July 2026.

Although the budget is ready, Lombok Tengah Regency is currently awaiting the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) for technical implementation. “The thirteenth month salary payment will be adjusted according to the PMK. Once the regulation is issued, payment will proceed,” he added.

In line with the Sekda, the Head of the Regional Finance and Asset Agency (BKAD) of Lombok Tengah, Taufikurrahman, stated that administrative processes for disbursement will commence immediately after the completion of June’s regular salary payments.

“Payment of the thirteenth month salary will occur this month, after June’s salary is settled,” Taufikurrahman emphasised.

Preliminary data indicates that 11,420 ASN in Lombok Tengah, comprising PNS and PPPK staff, will benefit from this policy. The thirteenth month salary is intended not only as recognition for civil servants’ service but also to stimulate local purchasing power.
