Transmigration Minister Iftitah Sulaiman, at the National Transmigration Technical Working Meeting on Monday, outlined the five main pillars of Transmigration 5.0, including Green Development, an environmentally friendly approach based on agroforestry and new and renewable energy (EBT).
The second pillar is the Smart Village Ecosystem, an intelligent village model based on digital technology and the Internet of Things (IoT), while the third is Value-Based Citizenship, which prioritizes transmigrants as active citizens.
The fourth pillar pertains to Intergenerational Design that focuses on planning for young families and across generations, while the fifth, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data-Driven Planning, is based on spatial data, market predictions, and social projections.
According to Sulaiman, Transmigration 5.0 marks a transition from a government project to a national collaboration, transforming neglected land into productive, intelligent land and transforming social burdens into strategic national strengths.
His side had earlier developed the education-based transmigration 4.0 program, specifically to enhance transmigrants' skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
The minister further elaborated that the program also targets developing industrial capacity to create added value, downstreaming for sustainable productivity, and digitalization for cross-border supply chains.
"We are also preparing the 5T scheme: TransTuntas, TransLokal, TransPatriot, TransKaryanusa, and TransGotongRoyong, as previously conveyed by the coordinating minister for infrastructure and regional development," Sulaiman remarked.
He guarantees a comprehensive and integrated transmigration ecosystem, in collaboration with the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs, to ensure legal certainty for land.
This is followed by cooperation on basic infrastructure, including roads, clean water, and electricity, in collaboration with the Public Works Ministry and the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM).
"Along with access to education and patriot scholarships, empowerment of local communities to prevent social conflict, and revitalization of economic institutions and export areas, along with other needs and institutions, especially in collaboration with local governments and strategic business partners," the minister explained.
