The Special Committee (Pansus) on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)/Social and Environmental Responsibility (TJSL) of the Jakarta Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) encourages regional-owned enterprises (BUMD) to optimize CSR programs to help meet various community needs that cannot yet be funded through the Regional Budget (APBD).

Member of the DKI Jakarta City Council CSR Special Committee, Muhammad Taufik Zoelkifli (MTZ), requested that all BUMDs include CSR programs that meet the needs of residents in the 2026 and 2027 Revised Annual Work Plans and Budgets (RKAT).

"The BUMD must clearly include CSR programs needed by the community in their RKAT. Many community needs cannot be funded by the regional budget, so they can be assisted through CSR programs," he said, Tuesday (7/7).

According to him, CSR funds can be directed to support various public facilities such as the construction of RW offices, provision of trash cans, construction of Child-Friendly Integrated Public Spaces (RPTRA), and procurement of Integrated Health Post (Posyandu) equipment.

MTZ cited the limited budget for waste management at the RW level. Currently, he continued, each RW only receives three trash bins, even though one RW can cover around 20 RTs.

Furthermore, some areas still lack RPTRAs due to limited land and budget. Furthermore, several Integrated Health Posts (Posyandu) also lack supporting facilities such as blood pressure monitors and digital scales.

"We hope that these needs can be met through the BUMD CSR program," he hoped.

He explained that the proposal is still under internal discussion within the DPRD. In the near future, the Special Committee will convene regional-owned enterprises (BUMD) and the BUMD Development Agency (BP BUMD) to discuss adjustments to the Regional Work Plan (RKAT) to ensure CSR programs are more oriented toward community needs.

MTZ added that the proposed drafting of a Regional Regulation (Raperda) on CSR remains one of the recommendations of the TJSL Special Committee. However, its preparation must begin with an academic paper, so discussions regarding the percentage allocation of CSR funds cannot yet begin.

"The preparation must be preceded by an academic paper so that currently it is not possible to determine the percentage of CSR," he stated.
