Pramono Says 700,000 KJP Recipients and 16,000 KJMU Recipients to Be Extended
Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung and Deputy Governor Rano Karno have outlined the achievements of their first year in office. Pramono stated that 707,513 recipients of the Kartu Jakarta Pintar (KJP) and 16,920 recipients of the Kartu Jakarta Mahasiswa Unggul (KJMU) would continue to receive their benefits.
“The first matter concerns what is known as the KJP, the Jakarta Smart Card, which some of you have already received. The KJP covers 707,513 students who are children of Jakarta. The figure amounts to approximately Rp 1.6 trillion,” said Pramono in his address at the ‘One Year of Building Jakarta from the Ground Up’ event at Taman Bendera Pusaka, South Jakarta, on Friday (20/2/2026).
“As for the KJMU, the Jakarta Outstanding Student Card, the number stands at 16,920 Jakarta university students. The combined total for KJMU and KJP has already consumed approximately Rp 2 trillion,” he added.
Pramono affirmed that he had no intention of reducing the number of KJP and KJMU recipients.
“We do not wish to see any reductions, and we are grateful to have Pak Wibi, Bu Ifa, and Pak Inggat — we have been supported by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Council (DPRD) so that this could be realised,” he said.
Pramono went on to discuss the amnesty programme for 6,000 diplomas, stating that the initiative would continue.
“The next matter we wish to convey is the amnesty programme covering more than 6,000 cases. We will continue — answering the question of whether it will go on or not — it will indeed be continued,” he said.
The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government also continues to distribute basic assistance to residents through the Senior Citizens Card, Jakarta Disability Card, and Jakarta Children’s Card programmes, covering 213,000 beneficiaries across Jakarta.
“And for anyone who holds a KJP or KJMU, entry to Ancol, Ragunan, Monas and other attractions will be free of charge. Why are we doing this? Because it turns out that a great many Jakarta children have never seen Ancol,” he explained.
“They live right next to Ancol but have never actually seen it. This is what moved me and Bang Dul to give them the opportunity to experience Ancol,” he added.
Pramono also highlighted the free private schooling programme in Jakarta.
“And on this occasion, I would also like to convey that although the Constitutional Court has issued its ruling on free private schooling, Jakarta had already begun the initiative ahead of time. We have made 40 private schools in Jakarta free of charge,” he concluded.
