Govt Readies 15 January 2026 Launch for One-Stop Prosperity Service Centers
Shio Diselimuti Kemakmuran Mulai 15 Januari 2026: Serba Mudah di 34 Provinsi
The Indonesian government has announced plans to launch its "Shio Diselimuti Kemakmuran" (One-Stop Prosperity Service Centers) initiative nationwide on January 15, 2026. These centers will streamline access to government assistance programs for underprivileged communities across all 34 provinces.
The new service hubs aim to consolidate 14 existing social welfare programs under a single administrative platform, reducing bureaucracy and improving efficiency in service delivery.
Background: Years of Planning Come to Fruition
The concept of integrated service centers for social welfare has been under development since 2021, when the Ministry of Social Affairs first proposed the idea. Initial pilot programs were launched in five provinces in 2023, with positive results showing a 30% reduction in processing times for assistance applications.
Following the successful pilots, the government allocated Rp 1.2 trillion in the 2025 national budget for nationwide implementation, with construction beginning in early 2025 at 1,200 locations across the country.
Key Developments: What’s Changing in 2026
Starting January 15, 2026, the following programs will be available through the new centers:
- Family Hope Program (Program Keluarga Harapan)
- Rice for the Poor Program (Raskin)
- Conditional Cash Transfers (BLT)
- Social assistance for disabled individuals
- School operational assistance
- Microcredit for entrepreneurs
- Assistance for victims of natural disasters
- Health insurance subsidies
Each center will feature digital kiosks, customer service representatives, and direct links to provincial welfare offices for faster processing. Mobile units will serve remote areas that lack physical centers.
Impact: Who Will Benefit Most
The initiative is expected to benefit approximately 25 million Indonesian citizens currently enrolled in various welfare programs. The greatest impacts will be felt in:

What Next: Key Milestones After Launch

- March 2026: Full digitization of all program records across all centers
