The Sigi Regency Government in Central Sulawesi has removed 1,933 Beneficiary Families (KPM) from its social assistance recipient registry. The decision to cut these recipients from the social aid program was taken due to their involvement in online gambling, locally referred to as judol.
Local authorities revealed the figures as part of an enforcement action targeting social aid misuse within the region. The policy addresses concerns that government welfare funds are being diverted toward illicit online gambling activities rather than supporting household needs.
