The following is the translation of the 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "Candidate number 3 released the statement to clarify the issue of social assistance that was politicized during the 2024 Election campaign. According to Ganjar, social assistance often receives the best attention during the campaign period. He is not surprised that many people are competing for social assistance during the political contest."

"It is actually a common thing. Our task is to explain to the people that it is a national policy, not an individual, so the process of enlightenment must be carried out, so that the public can know," said Ganjar in Kendal Regency, Central Java, Wednesday, January 17, 2024, quoted from Liputan6.com. In the current political situation, added Ganjar, certain parties are very easy to claim social assistance as their service, not the government's. Whereas social assistance is proposed by the government and must be approved by the DPR."

According to Syaugi, the distribution of social assistance during the 2024 elections is not based on concern for the people. He suspects there is manipulation and bias towards the electoral interests of certain presidential and vice-presidential candidates who are involved in money politics. "That is why we invite all parties to supervise the distribution of social assistance so that it reaches those who are eligible and is not politicized by certain parties," he said.
