"The coffee shops are managed by people with disabilities, the deaf, and people with physical disabilities," he added.

East Jakarta Baznas Bazis Coordinator Eka Napisah stated people with disabilities were empowered thus they could be independent.

"They offer milk coffee with brown sugar, coffee milk with pandan, teh tarik, and other menus," he conveyed.

While other facilities were the result of collaboration with CSR. They were provided to educate the public and offer additional services to residents who visit the East Jakarta Mayor's Office.

"We want people who visit it to feel safe and comfortable. They can build greenhouses, reading corners, coffee shops, and so on. But it must be adjusted to the existing land," he said.
