Asked about Anies' Payment of Tuition Fees Using Fintech, Ganjar Pranowo: "Stop the Liberalization of Education"

"Dream - Presidential candidate number 3 Ganjar Pranowo emphasizes that the liberalization of education must be stopped. According to Ganjar, this step needs to be taken to prevent any more cases of students who are unable to afford tuition fees and end up borrowing money from online loan services (Pinjol)."

"The first thing is to stop the liberalization of education. Give our students the right proportion," said Ganjar in the final debate of the Presidential Election at JCC Senayan, Sunday, February 4, 2024. Liberalization of education gives authority to an educational institution in carrying out its activities. Unfortunately, this system also contributes to efforts to gain as much profit as possible from the education sector."

Asked by Anies about Paying for College Using Online Loans, Ganjar Pranowo:

Ganjar admitted to having discussed with students from various regions he met. From the discussion, it was known that the issue of tuition fees is the main concern.

From the testimony of the students, Ganjar is thinking of reviving the student loan program that used to exist. Reflecting on his brother's experience, Ganjar revealed that he had previously been part of the Indonesian Student Credit (KMI) scheme. With this program, Ganjar explained, students can obtain loans for tuition fees at a more affordable rate. The students can also repay the loan once they have graduated and started working.

"The payment is after the 'harvest', when? when passing. Thus, the liberalization must be stopped and balanced with the proportionality of those who are capable and less capable,""
Firm Ganjar.

The following text has been translated from 'Bahasa' to 'English' while preserving the html tags: "The issue of tuition fees using loans like Pinjol has recently been widely discussed by the public. This phenomenon arose after a post on social media about the method of paying tuition fees using online loan platforms (Pinjol) at the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB). The social media account uploaded a photo of a pamphlet containing information about monthly tuition installments provided by ITB in collaboration with a third party, namely Danacita."

Andacita also provides information as an official partner of ITB. As for loan applications, there is no down payment and collateral required. Borrowers can choose to make payments within 6 months or 12 months. Meanwhile, in another post, it is informed about the interest charged to borrowers. If borrowers apply for a loan worth Rp12.5 million with a tenure of 12 months, then each month the borrower must pay Rp1,291,667. It is stated that the monthly platform fee is 1.75 percent and the approval fee is 3 percent.

Asked by Anies about Paying for College Using Online Loans, Ganjar Pranowo:

Meanwhile, the President Director of Danacita, Alfonsus Wibowo, affirmed that Danacita has obtained a permit and is supervised by OJK, based on the Decision of OJK Commissioner Member Number KEP-68/D.05/2021 dated August 2, 2021.

As a Technology-based Joint Funding Service (LPBBTI), Danacita ensures to follow the code of conduct from the Indonesian Joint Funding Fintech Association (AFPI) for LPBBTI. Danacita implements responsible lending practices by ensuring that each funding is adjusted to the recipient's ability, prioritizing the financial well-being of the recipient, who are students and/or guardians, in the long term. The applied fee ranges from 0.07 percent per day, or below the maximum limit set by OJK which is 0.1 percent per day.
