According to a report by okefinance on August 7th, the direct cash aid program for migrant workers in Indonesia, known as BLT, has been distributed once again. Currently, cigarette factory workers are eligible to receive 300,000 Indonesian Rupiah per month (approximately equivalent to 1351.8 Chinese Yuan).
As of 2024, a total of 47,801 cigarette workers have registered to receive BLT. The total amount of BLT they have received reached 9 million Indonesian rupiahs (equivalent to approximately 4055.4 yuan). This is a three-month program supported by the 2024 local budget (APBD), with a monthly aid amount of 300,000 Indonesian rupiahs (equivalent to approximately 1351.8 yuan).
In order to align with the BLT program in Central Java Province, the new BLT program will provide a four-month allocation of funds totaling 12 million Indonesian Rupiah (approximately 5,407.2 Chinese Yuan). The Kudus regency government plans to propose an additional month of subsidy through the revised local budget by 2024.
Meanwhile, 32,000 cigarette workers employed in multiple cigarette factories in Kudus Regency have already received cash aid from the local budget of Central Java Province.
Therefore, a total of 79,801 cigarette workers employed by multiple cigarette companies in Kudus County received the BLT, either through the local budget of Central Java Province or the local budget of Kudus County. Among them, 65,149 hold Kudus County identification cards.
The main purpose of the BLT program is to increase the purchasing power of cigarette workers in order to promote local economic growth.
