Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta.  Minister for Villages and Underdeveloped Regions Yandri Susanto said President Prabowo Subianto has said that the newly formed village cooperatives (Koperasi Desa Merah Putih) will not interfere with the operations of village-owned enterprises (BUMDes).

“President Prabowo ensures that the establishment of Kopdes Merah Putih will not harm BUMDes, but rather, both can progress together and strengthen each other,” he said in a statement on Sunday (8/6/2025), as quoted by antaranews.com

The co-op program is part of the sixth national priority in President Prabowo’s Asta Cita agenda, focused on rural development and poverty reduction. 

According to Yandri, the village co-ops are expected to reduce reliance on middlemen, stabilize staple food prices, and offer lending alternatives to high-interest loan sharks.

Each village co-ops must operate seven business units, including a co-op office, food kiosk, savings and loans service, village clinic, pharmacy, storage facility, and logistics support.
