JAYAPURA - The Additional Employee Income (TPP) of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) of the Papua Provincial Government will be paid immediately. The TPP paid is the first quarter or the period from January to March 2024.
Assistant for Government Affairs of the Papua Regional Secretary, Yohanis Walilo said that he had instructed the local Regional Apparatus Organization to immediately input the required data. That way, it is hoped that TPP payments can be realized soon.
"We will pay TPP 2024 immediately after the data input by the Regional Apparatus Organization is completed."
"We will budget for this TPP on a quarterly system, even though we are in July," said Walilo in Jayapura City, Thursday (4/7/2024).
According to Walilo, TPP payments are a local government policy. Even though the financial condition is not possible, the Acting Governor of Papua still strives to pay all local civil servants. However, the payment is adjusted to the existing financial condition.
"The Papua Provincial Government is still trying to fulfill the TPP payment. Even though we don't have the amount as expected due to regional budget limitations," he admitted.
Meanwhile, TPP payments are adjusted to the employee's position and attendance data. The delay in TPP payments is due to the lack of budget of the Papua Provincial Government after the expansion of the New Autonomous Region.
"The financial condition of the Papua Provincial Government is very minimal, especially this year there is financing for the Regional Elections as well," he said. ***
