"Aid provided such as clean water for washing hands in a number of service offices from PDAM Jaya, buses and hotels for medical workers from PT Transjakarta Jakarta and PT Jakarta Tourisindo," he expressed, Thursday (7/2).

There were also masks and social aid for residents affected by the pandemic.

"They also contribute to distribute protective gears to a number of hospitals," he explained.

He went on to say that the budget allocation used was adjusted to the financial conditions of each BUMD thus did not interfere or reduce public services.

"Some are in charge of service and contribute to local revenue. We believe that they can continue to work hard to achieve the set revenue targets," he stressed.

Additionally, his party also encouraged the social care of all BUMD leaders and employees to set aside the holiday bonus (THR) to help curb the virus.

"This is our commitment to jointly overcome this pandemic," he stated.
