As an example, previous loan budget for Su35 deals.
That's the key point, "available budget" meaning money you already hold in your pocket with little to no strings attached that you can freely spends it.the available budget for another similar program they need another proposal and request argument.
If both projects requires yet-to-be realized loans, with specific contracts attached to them, it's just doesn't make sense for one loan to be redirected for other purpose, especially if it's a long-term payment and with massive amount of money involved.
Heck even as a private individual, you cannot ask bank "I need money to buy house", get loan for cicilan KPR and then use it to buy car or cocaine. No, you have to use the money to buy house as the contracts requires.
And consortium partners are often attached to whatever industry they handle. Defense consortium will only give financial deals for defense product sales. So where did the idea that such defense-procurement "loan" will be redirected for construction project came from?And other thing is PSP from MoF also need considering the loan agreement with consortium partner for financing the program (foreign partner or local partner) before they can be released. This need MoU and other agreement beforehand.
I guess it is safer to wait for official news for everything, or at least take leaks from established sources (such as AH, being a spy in Kemhan cafeteria). But rumors are just silly, especially in Indonesia where fear and gossips will twist everything as to be sensational.
