Unlike Indonesia, North Korea Provides Housing for Citizens Without Deducting Salaries for Tapera.

"Dream - The controversy arises over the deduction of 3 percent of Indonesian workers' salaries for the Public Housing Savings (Tapera) program. Many people disagree because they see the program as forcing workers to participate by cutting their salaries. This policy seems to be the opposite of what is happening in North Korea. Despite being known as a poor country, the North Korean government provides free housing for its people."

In the post of X account @vctrkmng, it shows the progress of public housing development in North Korea. He said that the houses are provided without implementing a savings system and cutting the salaries of its employees like in Indonesia. "Peraku. Public Housing in North Korea. No savings or salary deduction," he tweeted.

Unlike Indonesia, North Korea Provides Housing for Citizens Without Deducting Salary for Tapera

North Korea is indeed known as a country with many strict rules, including for home ownership. It turns out that North Korean citizens are prohibited from buying, selling, and renting houses.

Residents are allowed to exchange houses within one jurisdiction, but it is still illegal if such an exchange is done for any financial gain for both parties. As reported by NK News, in order to obtain a house, North Korean citizens need to obtain a house usage permit. According to regulations, North Korean citizens must complete the residence registration process within 15 days. They can then move to their new house within two months.

Those who fail to meet these requirements may lose their housing allocation. North Korea also distinguishes between housing in urban and rural areas. Permits for urban housing are printed on blue paper, while permits for rural housing are printed on the same dull paper used by newspapers.

Permission is issued by the local community committee, which means that the quality of the paper, color, and format of the permission may vary depending on its origin. Various rules that must be followed in the use of the house by North Korean citizens are stated in the permit.

Translated text: "According to kBS World, Professor Chung Eun-chan at the Unification Education Institute said that North Korean socialists do not recognize private property ownership. Therefore, all land, houses, and buildings belong to the state. Partial private ownership is allowed and limited to income earned and some household items. In principle, all housing is provided by the state. North Korea also classifies all residents into three different groups: the loyal core class, the neutral wavering class, and the lowest group, the 'hostile class'."

Those who are part of the core class are given nice houses, while many of those who come from hostile classes live in remote areas, where they are forcibly relocated.

They usually live in very small houses, places that cannot be called homes with inadequate supplies. North Korea implements a rationing system for housing. The country owns the houses, and citizens only have the right to live in free houses provided by the state and pay for usage fees. The size and type of houses vary according to their class. The core class is offered nice houses, while houses with fewer facilities are assigned to unstable and hostile classes.

People are also given different houses according to their jobs and positions. Report: Nisya Aprilya
