Do you have a message for Aceh Tamiang people, Sir?

President of the Republic of Indonesia (Prabowo Subianto)

The recovery has progressed rapidly. Alhamdulilah, it is now almost complete. There are no more residents living in tents, as all have moved into temporary or permanent housing. Alhamdulilah, the situation continues to improve. Electricity has been restored to nearly 100 percent of the affected areas, with only five villages in Aceh still facing difficulties in electrification. All forms of assistance have reached the people, alhamdulilah. I am deeply proud of everyone involved. My sincere gratitude goes to all officers and authorities, including the Indonesian National Defense Forces (TNI), the Indonesian National Police, the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB), Ministry of Public Works, regional governments, and all ministries and agencies that have worked tirelessly. Their extraordinary efforts have greatly helped the people of Aceh, North Sumatra, West Sumatra, and other provinces.

Thank you. Happy Eid al-Fitr.
