“The construction of the estimate is without using ceramic floors and ceilings. Therefore, the funds are sufficient according to the amount of the allocation. If the funds are excess, other supporting infrastructure may be proposed. Such as the addition of a house terrace and so on, up to Rp.50 million fulfilled. In the sense of no less and more,” he said.
He added, for the people who have rebuilt their homes, without waiting for the disbursement of the Stimulant funds, they will continue to make changes to the funds they spend to rehabilitate their homes.

The central government itself has been pushing to prepare the disbursement of Stimulant funds for phase two. “It also makes it difficult to prepare data. Phase one has not yet begun distribution, now we are prescribed for the second stage. So which one should be concentrated first,” he admitted.
