Minister of State Secretary Pratikno called staffs at Presidential Institutions to help those affected by floods that hit Jakarta and its satellite cities.

“At New Year’s Eve 2020, Indonesia was tested with floods due to heavy rainfall which is predicted to continue until 12 January,” Pratikno said in his remarks at Joint Christmas Celebration of Presidential Institutions, at the Ministry’s Building III, Jakarta, Friday (10/1).

On the event adopting a theme ‘Living as Everyone’s Friend’, the Minister expressed hope that we can help the people affected by the natural disasters so they can escape from areas which are isolated due to floods and landslides such as Lebak and Bogor Regency.

The Minister went on to say that the Government in President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo’s second term introduced several new programs that are expected to be supported by all employees at the Presidential Institutions with their hard work.

They must also become good examples and be careful not to make mistakes since any mistake made within the Presidential Institutions has powerful impact, he added.

Also on that occasion, Pratikno distributed social assistance to Sinar Kasih Harapan Foundation, Karena Doa Orphanage, and Prima Unggul Foundation. (FID/JAY/ES)
