PRR Task Force to Oversee 11,520 Permanent Recovery Programmes Across Five Priority Clusters
A total of 11,520 permanent post-disaster rehabilitation and reconstruction activities will be carried out by the Post-Disaster Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Acceleration Task Force (Satgas PRR) in Aceh, North Sumatra, and West Sumatra. These activities, which are scheduled to run until 2028, require an indicative funding requirement of approximately Rp100.166 trillion.
These activities serve as the implementation of the Sumatra Post-Disaster Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Acceleration Master Plan (Renduk PRRP) 2026-2028, designed as a roadmap for permanent recovery across 53 affected regencies and cities. The stages of permanent rehabilitation and reconstruction are directed towards rebuilding affected areas to be safer, more resilient, and sustainable through the principle of ‘Build Back Better, Safer, and Sustainable’.
Behind these thousands of activities, the government has established five major focus areas to guide the implementation of rehabilitation and reconstruction over the next three years. These five focuses include residential recovery, infrastructure development, social rehabilitation, community economic recovery, and the strengthening of cross-sectoral governance.
Muhammad Tito Karnavian, Chairman of the Sumatra Post-Disaster PRR Task Force, stated that the success of rehabilitation and reconstruction requires support from all parties, including the community.
“We hope for support from all parties, including the men, women, and community leaders in these three regions, so that we can move forward through mutual cooperation,” Tito said in a written statement on Monday (29/6/2026).
He made these remarks following the Ministerial-level Meeting of the Steering Team for the Sumatra Post-Disaster PRR Task Force at the Coordinating Ministry for Human Development and Cultural Affairs Office in Jakarta (18/6), while emphasising that the acceleration of permanent infrastructure development must be maintained so that the benefits of recovery can be immediately felt by the community.
The first focus involves the provision of permanent housing through 97 activities, requiring approximately Rp7.57 trillion in funding. This programme does not only build houses for affected communities but also ensures that residential locations are situated in safer areas, through rebuilding in original locations or relocating from high-risk zones.
The largest portion is directed towards infrastructure development through 1,863 activities, with a budget requirement of approximately Rp63.69 trillion. This programme includes the rehabilitation of roads, bridges, irrigation networks, rivers, drainage, drinking water, sanitation, energy, and various public service facilities that serve as the backbone of community activities.
The government has also placed social recovery as a vital priority through 6,194 activities, requiring approximately Rp18.73 trillion in funding. The focus encompasses education and health services, protection for vulnerable groups, psychosocial support, and the strengthening of social cohesion to ensure an inclusive recovery process.
In the economic sector, 3,026 activities with a requirement of approximately Rp9.41 trillion are prepared to revitalise community livelihoods through the rehabilitation of agriculture, fisheries, trade, cooperatives, MSMEs, small and medium industries, traditional markets, and the tourism sector.
Meanwhile, 341 cross-sectoral activities, requiring approximately Rp764.67 billion, are directed towards strengthening disaster-risk-based spatial planning, early warning systems, land services, the strengthening of ‘by name, by address’ data, as well as monitoring and evaluation systems.
