Many former Tapol in South Blitar worked as a farmer. The existence of a regulation that Ex-Tapol and his descendants are prohibited from having certain jobs and are prohibited from being civil servants makes Ex-Tapol in South Blitar have no other choice, but to become a farmer. The income as a farmer is uncertain, making some ex-Tapol in South Blitar increase their income by raising livestock such as cows, goats, and chickens. The interaction of Ex-Tapol with the surrounding community is partly closed because of the stigma that the Ex Tapol PKI which is an enemy of the state made some people in South Blitar choose to stay away from Ex Tapol and are reluctant to have a relationship with Ex Tapol.
