Metro, March 24, 2025 – The Social Affairs Office (Dinsos) of Metro Municipality conducted a working visit to Statistics of Metro Municipality (BPS) to discuss the verification process of the National Socioeconomic Single Data (DTSEN). This initiative aims to ensure the accuracy and validity of beneficiary data in Metro Municipality, enhancing the effectiveness of existing social programs.

During the discussion at the BPS Metro Municipality office, representatives from both institutions reviewed verification mechanisms and data collection improvements. The Head of Metro Municipality’s Social Affairs Office, Mr. Sri Amanto, S.H., M.H., emphasized the importance of collaboration between Dinsos and BPS to ensure that social assistance programs are based on accurate and reliable data.

"We want to ensure that the data used in distributing social assistance is truly valid and well-targeted. Therefore, the verification process conducted with BPS is crucial to maintaining accuracy and transparency," he stated.

Following the discussion, a joint team from Dinsos and BPS Metro Municipality carried out field visits to several locations in Metro Municipality. These on-site inspections aimed to cross-check beneficiary data, verify that recorded information aligns with actual conditions, and gather feedback directly from the community.

"We hope that through this initiative, we can provide more accurate data, enabling the government to formulate more effective social policies," added Mrs. Arum Purbowati, Head of BPS Metro Municipality.

This visit is part of Dinsos Metro Municipality’s efforts to enhance social welfare data accuracy and strengthen its partnership with BPS in implementing effective assistance programs for those in need. With strong coordination, all social aid programs are expected to run more efficiently and effectively in the future.
