Chacha Annisa, Senior Expert Staff at the Presidential Communication Office (PCO), highlighted the importance of Quick Impact Programs (PHTC) as evidence of the government’s commitment to its people. Speaking at the “Double Check” discussion on the role of Family Development in achieving Indonesia Emas 2045, Chacha emphasized the involvement of families in making these programs successful.

She elaborated on various government initiatives launched since January, such as Free Nutritious Meals (MBG), Free Health Checks (CKG), School-Based Free Health Checks, Sekolah Rakyat (People’s School), and others, all aimed at benefiting families. Chacha stressed the active participation of families to ensure the smooth implementation of these programs.

Drawing from her experience monitoring the School-Based Free Health Checks with the Ministry of Health, Chacha mentioned the importance of informing and educating parents beforehand. This approach helped in ensuring that children did not evade health workers during the check-ups.

Chacha also shared how the CKG program encouraged healthy competition among students, leading to positive changes in their daily habits. She highlighted the achievements of the PHTC initiative, including the establishment of Nutrition Service Units (SPPG), conducting health checks for millions of people, and forming Merah Putih Village and Neighborhood Cooperatives, among others.

Emphasizing that these numbers reflect the government’s dedication and active involvement in people’s lives, Chacha underscored the significance of family participation in the success of these programs. This demonstrates the government’s commitment to improving the well-being of its citizens and ensuring their access to essential services.
