BENGKULUTERKINI.ID – The Bengkulu City Government has joined the national drive for efficiency by implementing significant budget cuts. This measure aligns with the central government’s efforts to streamline expenditures. This prudent financial management strategy ensures that public money is spent where it truly matters, directly benefiting the residents.

Bengkulu Mayor, Dedy Wahyudi, stated that the cuts are primarily focused on activities that do not directly impact the community, such as official travel expenses.
