Assessing the Economic Losses of Delaying the Appointment of Civil Servant Candidates

🚨 The 9-month delay in CPNS appointments triggers economic uncertainty and financial losses!
The government has postponed the appointment of 250,407 CPNS, initially scheduled for March 2025, to October 2025 or even March 2026. But why?

🔍 Key reasons for the delay:
⚠️ Shift in priorities under Prabowo’s new administration
⚠️ Budget efficiency measures targeting Rp306 trillion
⚠️ Deficit pressures from debt and past infrastructure spending

💰 Economic impact of the delay:
Rp6.76 trillion in lost ASN income
Rp11.9 trillion in total economic losses
Rp10.4 trillion decline in public earnings
110,000 affected workers

Many CPNS candidates who resigned from previous jobs are now in a state of uncertainty for up to 9 months, while businesses suffer from the loss of expected consumer spending.
