Fee subsidies for voluntary teachers will receive a budget of Rp. 3.6 trillion. He also appreciated the Ministry of Finance and Commission Xthe House of Representatives for supporting this wage assistance.

Nadiem then explained some of the requirements. First, voluntary teachers must be Indonesian citizens and do not receive subsidized assistance from the Ministry of Manpower.

The recipients of aid Must be Indonesian citizens, and do not receive subsidized assistance from the Ministry of Manpower so that it does not overlap with the various types of assistance provided by the Ministry of Manpower, that's quite natural. The status is not a civil servant, and does not receive one of our semi-social assistance, namely the Pre-Work Card until October 1, 2020, therefore the amount is actually the same, yes, the amount of cash social assistance, "Nadiem said.

Furthermore, wage aid recipients must have an income of under IDR 5 million. This requirement is intended to prevent overlapping of government assistance to be received by voluntary teachers.

So we don't want to overlap with social assistance from the Ministry of Manpower or also semi-social assistance from the pre-work program. And the last criterion is that they have an income of under 5 million rupiah per month.
