Nasdem criticism of the Minister of Health over Salary: There are more priorities that need to be improved than to talk

Jakarta – Minister of Health (Menkes) Budi Gunadi Sadikin said people with a salary of RP 15 million healthier and smarter than people paid RP. 5 million. Member of the House of Representatives Commission IX of the Democratic National Party (Nasdem) faction Irma Suryani Chaniago has criticized Budi’s statement. “If it’s not Gatel, you don’t have to be scratched! Even though I’m sure the intention is good,” Irma told reporters Tuesday (5/20/2025). According to him, Budi’s statement can be assessed from two points of view, namely positive and negative. If it is seen from a positive point of view, Irma says, Budi wants the community to be healthy and smart so that it can receive salaries above RP. 15 million.

Irma asked the Minister of Health to be more focused on solving things that are missing. “I just want to remind the minister of health that there is more priority to address rather than talking what can eventually be interpreted. Namely, so that the hospital and doctors do not sell drugs and tools because it makes health costs expensive,” Irma said. He then compared to a neighboring country, and called it Malaysia. There are patients who get the same medicines and instruments as patients treated in Indonesia, but the rates are much cheaper. He then suggested that Budi improve PPDs and hospital management immediately. In addition, there were many victims who were not revealed on the grounds that they did not damage public trust. “In my opinion, there is no crime that can be tolerated for any reason,” Irma explained. Budi has previously talked about Indonesia indicators to become developed in 2045. One, he said, the average income of residents who had to reach RP. 15 million per month. “Developed countries, land with high income, the definition is clear, friends. Gross national income per capita is 14 thousand and above,” Budi said in a discussion titled Double Check with the theme ‘What is the health vision of the Prabowo -era? ” At Toyy Heraty Museum, Menteng, Central -Jakarta, Saturday (5/17/2025). “How much Indonesia is now $ 4,000. So it has to rise $ 3.5 times. Well, how do you do it when it is converted, a month must be 15 million,” he continued. Budi continues that a great income can only be achieved if the community is healthy and smart. Therefore, he spoke the importance of the role of the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education to Indonesia EMAS 2045. “What is the difference between people whose salary RP. 15 million is, only two. One, out of RP. 15 million, is definitely healthier and smarter. Read the inspirational story of the example of the exemplary police candidate here here
