"Solutions will be built into the future Revised RAPBD, including the budget shift that has been signed to be part of covering the shortfall in 2024," explained Dedi.

Dedi added that the 2024 LKPJ reflects the complexity and various challenges faced in running the government. One of which is currently being faced is natural disasters due to extreme weather.
