All Quick Impact Programs (PHTC) are a concrete example of the government’s commitment to its people, as stated by Chacha Annisa, Senior Expert Staff at the Presidential Communication Office (PCO). This was highlighted during the “Double Check” discussion on the role of family development in achieving Indonesia Emas 2045. Chacha emphasized that every government program introduced since January, such as Free Nutritious Meals (MBG), Free Health Checks (CKG) including School-Based Free Health Checks, Sekolah Rakyat (People’s School), School Renovation and Revitalization, Digital Learning, and the Merah Putih Village/Neighborhood Cooperatives, are all geared towards benefiting families. However, for these programs to be successful, active involvement from families is crucial.
Sharing her own experience monitoring the School-Based Free Health Checks with the Ministry of Health, Chacha highlighted the importance of informing and educating parents ahead of time to ensure smooth implementation. She also mentioned how the CKG program has encouraged healthy competition among students, motivating them to adopt better lifestyle habits.
Under the PHTC initiative, significant achievements have been made. The Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program has established 4,424 Nutrition Service Units (SPPG), benefiting 8.2 million individuals and creating 82,000 jobs. Similarly, the Free Health Checks program has reached 17.6 million people, with 12.7 million already undergoing examinations. The Sekolah Rakyat (People’s School) program, currently serving 5,665 students in 159 schools, and the formation of 81,500 Merah Putih Village and Neighborhood Cooperatives are testaments to the government’s commitment to the well-being of its citizens.
Chacha reiterated that these achievements are more than just statistics; they represent the government’s dedication and direct involvement in improving the lives of the people. It is evident that the state is actively working to make a positive impact and create a better future for all.
