Speaking at the event, which was broadcast via the Presidential Secretariat’s YouTube channel, Prabowo said the simultaneous loan signings and key handovers reflected the state’s commitment to improving living conditions for Indonesians who still lack adequate housing.
He described the program as a collective effort that requires sustained work to meet the scale of national housing needs.
“This is our commitment and our shared struggle. I thank all parties who are working together so our people can live more decently,” Prabowo said, adding that while the initiative marked significant progress, much more remained to be done.
The mass signing of KPR loans, held simultaneously across 33 provinces, was described by officials as the largest of its kind ever conducted in Indonesia, highlighting the scale of the government-backed housing finance program.
