TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - President Prabowo Subianto announced a free health check program for all citizens on their birthdays. The program is funded by the 2025 State Budget (APBN) with an allocation of Rp3.2 trillion.
“The program from President Prabowo's government, utilizing the 2025 APBN budget of Rp3.2 trillion,” stated the official @gerdindra account on Friday, January 3, 2025.
