Regarding social welfare, the Governor apologized for delays in the disbursement of the Kartu Jakarta Mahasiswa Unggul (KJMU) student aid, citing data discrepancies in bank account digits and identity synchronization issues. He aims to complete disbursements by November 6, 2026.

On the economic front, Jakarta recorded a national investment record of Rp249.3 trillion from January to September 2026, accounting for 16.2 percent of Indonesia’s total investment.
