Immediately after Jokowi raised BBM prices, he launched three cards namely Health Card, Smart Card, and Welfare Card (Kartu Indonesia Sehat, Pintar and Sejahtera). The cards are a kind of direct aid for the poor. It is aimed to maintain purchasing power of people and level of welfare.
At first glance, it looks useful. Of course, people would welcome ecstatic, particularly the poor. They can use the money for anything they want. Hence, the program will raise goverment image. Goverment will get immense public support.
Is it really useful? To be honest, i have to say NOT. Why? These the reasons:
1. The program is going to maintain purchase power, and help people to buy fuel. But, it is only useful for a moment, short time. It does not effect economic in the mid and long term.
2. The program would endorse negative culture of people, specifically as a nation of beggars. Please take a look at a country in middle east. Citizens are rich, but we do not see any achievement from them. because The kingdom provide a lot of money every month to almost all people. Citizens do not have eager or passion to pursue something. They tend to be a lazy person.
What can be improved from this program?
1. The cards only being distributed to the poor, who really do not have any job, elders, widow and someone alike.
2. The rest of the money, it is better to be alocated to build infrastructure across the country, to encourage additional job and welfare.
