President Joko Widodo declared a public health emergency due to the increasingly widespread spread of Covid-19. With this status, the government increased the number of recipients and the amount of the Family Hope Program (PKH). This increase aims to maintain public purchasing power.

The number of PKH recipients has increased year by year. In 2016, at least 6 million beneficiary families (KPM) received PKH allocations. In 2020, this changed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, increasing from 9.2 million to 10 million KPM.

The amount of money each family will receive will also increase by 25 percent. The additional amount applies to all components, from pregnant mothers to the elderly. This policy is effective from April 2020 and will be given for nine months.
