Bahas Dana Desa, Diskusi Wapres Gibran dan Kades di Trenggalek Tertutup Untuk Media - bioztv.id

www.bioztv.id - Indonesian Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka held a special meeting with representatives of village heads in Trenggalek Regency on Thursday (April 30, 2026). However, the discussion on village funds took place behind closed doors. Officials asked all journalists to leave the area shortly before the discussion began. The meeting took place in the Bagong Dam area, coinciding with a progress review of the construction of this national strategic project. Several journalists who were originally covering the dam inspection immediately left the discussion area after protocol officers blocked access. Protocol officials did not allow media crews to witness the discussion between the Vice President and the village heads. Main Focus: Village Fund Evaluation Gibran stated that the forum aimed to examine the village fund issue directly with the village heads. He believed the closed-door discussion format allowed for more open dialogue and focused on core issues. "My agenda today specifically addresses village funds. Therefore, I request time to have an in-depth discussion with my fellow village heads," Gibran told the media before the meeting began. He also emphasized that he frequently uses closed-door discussions during working visits, including when holding dialogues with village heads in Pacitan Regency. Vice President Claims to Absorb Aspirations from Various Channels Before closing media access, Gibran stated that he continues to monitor the dynamics of government programs at the village level. He admitted to gathering input from various communication channels. "I often receive input from village heads, both through direct meetings, official letters, and messages on social media," he said. Gibran ensured that the central government would follow up on all these aspirations, especially regarding the management of village funds so that future policies are more targeted. Notes on Public Information Disclosure This closed-door meeting format was highlighted during the Vice President's working visit to Bumi Menak Sopal. On the one hand, this forum provides a space for village heads to express their views openly without pressure. However, on the other hand, restricting journalists' access raises questions regarding the principle of public information disclosure, given that village funds are a state budget that is of concern to the wider public.
