Jakarta (B2B) - Anggota Komisi IV DPR RI, Ma´mur Hasanuddin menyesalkan langkah pemerintah yang memangkas anggaran di dua kementerian, Pertanian dan Kelautan, yang langsung bersentuhan dengan petani dan nelayan sebagai rakyat kecil. Sementara anggaran di Kementerian Energi Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) dan Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan malah ditambah.
"Anggaran di Kementerian Pertanian dan Kementerian Kelautan Perikanan mestinya ditambah bukan dikurangi. Sedangkan anggaran yang ditambah malahan tidak dekat dengan rakyat kecil yakni Kementerian ESDM dan Kementerian Pendidikan," kata Ma´mur Hasanudin, anggota DPR di Komisi IV yang membidangi masalah pertanian di Jakarta, Selasa (4/6).
Menurut Ma´mur, anggaran Kementerian Pertanian dipangkas Rp1,44 triliun dan Kementerian Kelautan Perikanan sebesar Rp479,11 miliar.
"Pemerintah tidak sadar imbasnya akan langsung ke rakyat terpaksa dikurangi anggarannya atau dihilangkan oleh kedua kementerian karena anggarannya terbatas," ungkap wakil rakyat yang mewakili Jawa Barat dari daerah pemilihan (Dapil) Kabupaten Bandung dan Bandung Barat.
Dia menyesalkan keluarnya Surat Menteri Keuangan Nomor S-339/MK.02/2013 tanggal 4 Mei 2013 tentang Kebijakan Penghematan Dan Pengendalian Belanja Kementerian Negara/Lembaga (K/L Tahun 2013) bahwa kementerian Pertanian dan Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan diminta untuk melakukan penghematan.
"Kedua kementerian dipatok target pembangunan pertanian dan kelautan, tapi anggarannya dikurangi pemerintah?" tanya Ma´mur.

While the budget of the Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry (ESDM) and Education and Culture Ministry instead added.
"Budget at the Agriculture Ministry and Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Ministry should be added, not reduced. Meanwhile plus budget is not even close to the little people that the of Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry and the Education Ministry," said Ma´mur Hasanuddin in Jakarta, Tuesday (4/6).
According Ma´mur, budget of the Agriculture Ministry trimmed Rp1, 44 trillion and the Marine Fisheries Ministry for Rp479, 11 billion.
