President Prabowo Subianto Saturday (03/08) visited flood-affected residents in Babelan, Bekasi regency and inspected their condition.

Upon arrival at the residential area at 17.57 Western Indonesian Time, the President walked through the neighborhoods still inundated with water. He also talked with residents affected by the flood, asking their urgent needs.

Afterwards, the President distributed food package aids to residents, which are expected to ease their burden, particularly during the holy fasting month of Ramadan.

Also on that occasion, President Prabowo joined iftar in one of the residents’ home. In humble circumstances, he enjoyed the meals with local residents.

The presence of the President at the flood-affected area really gave mental support to local residents who are currently facing a hard time.

The Government is committed to always monitoring condition of flood-affected residents and to ensuring that all flood victims receive aids. (BPMI of Presidential Secretariat) (RAS/EP)
