Prabowo Bhakal Launch Digital Perlinsos, Bansos Change into Tunai Transfer

President Prabowo Subianto is scheduled to launch the Digital Social Protection Program on national November 10, 2026. Eventually, bansos will be given in the form of cash transfers.

The launch plan was delivered by the National Economic Council's Chairman (DEN) Luhut Binsar Pandkaitan after a meeting with the President at Jakarta Palace, Tuesday, (20 / 10 / 2026).

"We just reported about Perlinsos being rolled out or launched by the President on November 10th," said Luhut.

According to him, digitization of social protection is not merely a change in government aid channeling mechanisms. More than that, it was designed to bring justice to society, especially groups that needed help but have not yet been optimal.

"This Perlinsos will give justice to the Indonesian people who are entitled to social aid. Will be given in cash transfers," obviously.

Luhut says the future government policy of subsidy is expected to be more oriented to the right beneficiaries, not all-eyes subsidies for products.

"So, the government at its end doesn't subsidize to products anymore," said Luhut.

Executive Executive Director of the DEN Economic Priority Program, Mochammad Hidayat Word, says the application of Digital Perlinsos continues to grow. The test program has now reached the entire district and city of Indonesia.

"It has now reached the entire city district in Indonesia, 514 districts," he said.

Word has it, 11.5 million family heads have been listed in the digitization system. To help a society that's having trouble signing up independently, the government also involves hundreds of thousands of Perlinsos.

"And per today we have 11.5 million family heads listed in this perlinsos digitization program. And there are 775 thousand agents Perlinsos who help our citizens register that need social aid. And if we look at the daily data, it's over 600 people registered at Perlinsos portal every day," the paparazzi.

In addition to expanding the registration, the government also evaluates the effectiveness of the system digitized through a number of pilot projects. One of the evaluations reported to Prabowo came from executing the Perlinsos Digital trial in Bali.

"We also submit to Mr. President that our study is related to the pilot in Bali, using this Digital Perlinsos, the exclusion error can go down by 24.1 percent and include error can also go down from 4.1 percent. It means that this Perlinsos digitalization is capable of making bansos more transparent and also more precise targets," its entry.
