Acting (Pj) Governor of DKI Jakarta, Heru Budi Hartono, speaks up about the news. He revealed that there is a new mechanism regarding the changes in the data of KJMU recipients for phase 1 in 2024.

Now the DKI Jakarta government uses the Integrated Social Welfare Data (DTKS) as of February and November 2022 and as of January and December 2023, which is approved by the Ministry of Social Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia. Then, it is matched with the Socio-Economic Registration Data (Regsosek). With this, the educational cost assistance is selective and not continuous. And it will be adjusted based on the welfare ranking (Desil) of students from low-income families.

Only students who meet the requirements will receive assistance from KJP Plus and KJMU, which are divided into the categories of extremely poor (Desil 1), poor (Desil 2), nearly poor (Desil 3), and vulnerable poor (Desil 4).

"That has also been synergized with Regsosek so that DKI uses its basic data, its main data is DTKS data. It can be in deciles 1, 2, 3, 4, and of course, looking at DKI's financial capabilities," explained Heru. Then what is the Kartu Jakarta Mahasiswa Unggul scholarship?"
