Subhead: Minister Saifullah Yusuf Inspects Unclaimed Prizes, Including Rolls-Royce, Louis Vuitton Bags, and Gold Bars

Article:

In an unexpected discovery, Indonesia’s Minister of Social Affairs, Saifullah Yusuf, also known as Gus Ipul, recently inspected a trove of unclaimed prizes worth approximately Rp 18 billion (around USD 1.2 million) at the ministry’s warehouse in Jakarta. The unclaimed prizes, ranging from luxurious items to electronics and vehicles, have been sitting in the warehouse without a claimant.

Gus Ipul, accompanied by the ministry’s Deputy Minister, Agus Jabo Priyono, visited the conventional warehouse at Kalibata, Jakarta Selatan, on Monday, December 30, 2024. The highlight of their inspection was a Rolls-Royce car, which they examined closely, even taking a seat inside. Other lavish prizes included Louis Vuitton bags, gold bars, and high-end electronics such as iPhones, Samsung devices, TVs, and gaming consoles like the PS5.

The minister and his deputy joked about the situation, with Gus Ipul saying, "Laku-laku. Sing tuku ora teko-teko (those who bought didn’t come), sing teko ora tuku-tuku (those who came didn’t buy)." They also found 11 Louis Vuitton bags, gold bars of varying weights, and other items like motorcycles, bicycles, and compact cars.

Gus Ipul revealed that these prizes will be re-auctioned in early 2025, with the proceeds going towards supporting Indonesian communities and social causes. He emphasized that the funds would primarily be used for basic infrastructure and other essential needs.

Understanding Eligibility: Harvey Moeis and Sandra Dewi’s BPJS Kesehatan Benefit.

Title: BPJS Kesehatan Clarifies Premium Assistance for Harvey Moeis and Sandra Dewi

Article:

In a recent revelation, BPJS Kesehatan has shed light on the premium assistance received by the high-profile couple, businessman Harvey Moeis and actress Sandra Dewi. The duo is reportedly listed under the active BPJS Kesehatan members in the Public Sector Non-Civil Servant (PBI APBD) segment with access to Class 3 healthcare facilities.

Rizzky Anugerah, BPJS Kesehatan’s Head of Public Relations, confirmed that Harvey and Sandra were indeed registered under the Peeperja Bukan Penerima Upah (PBPU) category from the Provincial Government of DKI Jakarta. The term ‘PBI APBD’ is an outdated reference for PBPU under the provincial government.

Rizzky explained that the PBPU segment includes residents registered and subsidized by the local government, providing them with Class 3 healthcare rights. Crucially, this segment isn’t exclusively for the poor or needy but covers all unenrolled residents eligible for Class 3 facilities.

Names for the PBPU segment are suggested directly by the respective local governments. In this case, Harvey and Sandra were proposed by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.

Rizzky further clarified that the Penerima Bantuan Iuran (PBI) segment, for the financially struggling, is a separate category funded by the central government and provides Class 3 facilities. Only the truly needy, as per government poverty data, qualify for this segment.

"It’s important to understand that these segments operate independently, each serving a specific purpose within the National Health Insurance system," Rizzky stated.

Unraveling Rolls-Royce’s Abandoned Lottery Program at Indonesia’s Kemensos Warehouse

Headline:
Abandoned Rolls-Royce Ghost in Government Warehouse: A Tale of Luxury and Neglect

Subheading:
Unused since 2016, the luxury car sits idle as bureaucracy delays its sale.

Article Body:

In the heart of Jakarta, nestled within the premises of the Ministry of Social Affairs, an unusual sight catches the eye: a Rolls-Royce Ghost, dormant and untouched, gathering dust in a government warehouse. This isn’t a case of extravagant government spending; rather, it’s a tale of a prize gone unclaimed and bureaucratic red tape delaying its sale.

The Rolls-Royce, a silver masterpiece with blacked-out B-pillars, is a 2012 Ghost model. It was initially a grand prize in a lottery by an airline. When the winner couldn’t be found, the airline handed over the car to the Ministry of Social Affairs in 2016. Since then, the luxury sedan has been left to fade into obscurity in the ministry’s garage.

The car, a testament to British craftsmanship, boasts a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 engine, delivering 562 horsepower and 780 Nm of torque. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, it promises a thrilling drive, if only it ever left the warehouse.

The car made headlines briefly in 2021 when Minister Tri Rismaharini attempted to auction it off. However, it failed to find a buyer, leaving the Rolls-Royce to gather more dust and politically charged whispers.

In December 2024, the current Minister of Social Affairs, Saifullah Yusuf or Gus Ipul, reignited the controversy. He revealed that the winner of the lottery couldn’t afford to claim the car. According to him, the winner would have to pay a quarter of the original price, amounting to a hefty sum of at least Rp 5 billion, given today’s market prices.

Ipul hinted that the ministry could use the funds from the car’s sale to support social programs. "The money will be used to help those in need, perhaps for clean water projects or housing," he said.

As the Rolls-Royce Ghost continues to collect dust, the ministry struggles to find a balance between recuperating funds and making sure the sale doesn’t become a political liability. Meanwhile, the car, a symbol of luxury and neglect, remains a poignant reminder of the peculiarities of government bureaucracy.

Mystery Rolls-Royce and Unclaimed Gold Bars: Inside Kemensos’ Unusual Assets

Article:

In a recent revelation, Minister of Social Affairs Saifullah Yusuf, commonly known as Gus Ipul, has unveiled an intriguing secret about the assets stored in the Ministry’s warehouses. During the launch of the SIM UGB-PUB application at the Kemensos headquarters, Gus Ipul shed light on two unusual items: a Rolls-Royce car and unclaimed gold bars.

The Rolls-Royce, worth between Rp 20-25 billion on the market, was won by a fortunate individual in a free lottery. However, the winner was unable to pay the 25% contest fee, amounting to approximately Rp 5-6.25 billion. "The car is here, but no one can afford to buy it," explained Gus Ipul, hinting at its languishing status in the warehouse.

Adding to the intrigue, Gus Ipul also revealed the existence of unclaimed gold bars in the Kemensos storage. Similar to the Rolls-Royce, the lucky winner of the gold in a draw could not afford to claim their prize, leaving the precious metal to gather dust.

The minister clarified that these assets are in line with the Undang-Undang Nomor 22 Tahun 1954 concerning lotteries. He assured the public that the unspent prize money would be channeled into various social programs beneficiating those in need.

While the Rolls-Royce and gold bars remain unclaimed, their existence has certainly added an element of intrigue to the otherwise ordinary affair of Minister Gus Ipul launching a new application.

Indonesia‘s Ministry of Social Affairs (Kemensos) Secures Rp 150 Billion Annually from 10% ‘Free Lottery Prize’ Contribution

Jakarta – The Ministry of Social Affairs (Kemensos) receives approximately Rp 150 billion annually from the 10% contribution of ‘Free Lottery Prize’ merchandise. This significant influx of funds bolsters Kemensos’ budget to run its various programs.

Mensos Saifullah Yusuf, commonly known as Gus Ipul, recently revealed this information to reporters at the Kemensos headquarters in Jakarta. "I need to emphasize that every year, Kemensos receives around Rp 140 billion to Rp 150 billion annually from this free lottery prize contribution," he stated.

The ministry secures this substantial amount through a 10% deduction from each Free Lottery Prize’s merchandise value, as mandated by Presidential Decree No. 22/1954. Gus Ipul lauded the efficiency of lottery organizers, highlighting their administrative discipline and compliance with regulations.

Citing a prominent bank as an example, Gus Ipul shared that a single institution contributes tens of billions of rupiah annually to the ministry through its lottery operations. "For instance, BRI alone has contributed more than Rp 30 billion to Kemensos this year," he added.

Kemensos plans to allocate the collected funds to support its programs, such as providing clean water, rebuilding homes, constructing roads, distributing agricultural equipment, and other dire need-based initiatives within communities.

Gus Ipul explained the allocation process, "The funds will be used for public welfare, including providing clean water, rebuilding homes, constructing roads, or distributing agricultural equipment that corresponds to the community’s needs."

He also elaborated on the application and assessment process, "There is a mechanism in place for applications, followed by an assessment. Once approved, the funding will go directly to the beneficiaries."

The ministry prioritizes allocating resources to address societal needs, ensuring that vulnerable populations receive the support they deserve.

Mystery posebno: Ada Rolls-Royce and Gold Bared in Warehouse – Whose Is It?

Unclaimed Luxury Car and Gold Bars: Unresolved wins from Free Lottery Draws at Ministry of Social Affairs

Article:

In an unexpected revelation, Indonesian Minister of Social Affairs, Saifullah Yusuf, also known as Gus Ipul, recently disclosed the existence of unclaimed prizes from free lottery draws held under his ministry. One of the most significant findings is a high-end Rolls-Royce car parked in the ministry’s warehouse, part of an unsolved lottery draw.

The Rolls-Royce, valued at approximately Rp 20-25 billion (USD 1.4-1.8 million), is a result of a free lottery draw where the winner is required to pay a quarter of its price, about Rp 5-6.25 billion (USD 0.35-0.45 million), to redeem the prize. However, the winner has been unable to meet this financial obligation, leaving the luxurious car unstolen for some time.

"We have a Rolls-Royce here, no one has bought it yet," Gus Ipul revealed in a recent event, adding that the winner was unable to pay the required 25% of its price, leaving the ministry with a sitting duck worth millions of rupiah.

The issue isn’t limited to the Rolls-Royce. There’s also an unclaimed gold bar, also a result of a free lottery draw with an equally hefty price tag for redemption. The winner, too, couldn’t afford the price, leaving the gold bar untouched.

Although these prizes remain unclaimed, Minister Yusuf assured that the process aligns with Law No. 22/1954 regarding lotteries. The funds collected from these redemption prices will go towards social welfare programs such as improving access to clean water and building houses for the underprivileged.

In a digital age, these unclaimed prizes serve as a intriguing tale, a testament to the vast chasm between the riches and the less fortunate in Indonesian society. It also shines a spotlight on questions about the fairness and practicality of such lottery draws in social welfare programs.

Meanwhile, the Rolls-Royce and the gold bars wait in their respective warehouses, symbols of wealth in a context quite removed from their typical niches of luxury and opulence.
