Menko Zulhas: We wake up red white heads in the right way not easy
Jakarta – The Minister of Food Coordination, Zulkifli Hasan (Zulhas), explained that the formation of the Red and White Village Cooperative (heads) was on track. Red and white heads are considered able to guarantee cooperatives to keep growing instead of stopping in the middle of the road. “If the cooperative is not successful in the right way, there will be no more cooperatives,” Zulhas said during the opportunity to review the implementation of the Kelurahan summit for the Red and White Village Cooperative formation in Palembang, South Sumatra, as in his statement Tuesday (5/27/2025). The Pan Ketum said the funds that would be paid to the red and white heads at RP 3 billion were not help. However, the funds are a loan ceiling of a bank that can be used by the red and white heads for entrepreneurship.

We choose the right way, not an easy way. Many times the cooperative is established, money given. The governor said earlier, borrowed, borrowed, the chairman of the profit first closed. Zulhas, who is also the chairman of the Task Force for the formation of the red and white cooperative, said the formation of the red and white heads is part of the government’s efforts to build cooperatives properly. According to him, if the red and white heads were unsuccessful, there would be no more cooperatives in the future. “Now we’ll try it. We are building a cooperative (Kopdes Merah Putih) in the right way. If the cooperative does not work properly, there will be no more cooperatives to come. It is now or never, now or not,” he explained. Eventually, Zulhas appreciated the region because he helped and was serious in shaping the red and white heads. “Therefore, if we ask for the support of all parties, we work right. South Sumatra was 100%, 100% formed a task force. The provincial task force was signed, the district task force was signed, the city task force was signed,” he concluded.
