"We're also very grateful to schools in North Jakarta who have received donations of these plants. Hopefully, the schools accept them with pleasure in order to maintain the school's environmental sustainability," she expressed in a written statement.

She believes that the people of Indonesia, especially Jakarta would do more to protect the environment and create prosperity and happiness together.

Besides giving donations in the form of plants, she also told about the things she had done while in Jakarta. One way was to hold a talk show that discusses career opportunities in the motorsport industry, especially for women.

"We have visited universities, and found around 50 women who will be empowered to enter the world of motorsport industry," she explained.

She furthered FEO will continuously encourage women's participation in the motorsport industry in a bid to create gender equality.

Then while in Jakarta, she was very impressed with the enthusiasm of the people in welcoming the Jakarta E-Prix, including with the performances of Jakarta's local culture from the students when he visited a school in North Jakarta.

"Hopefully, there will be more legacy that we will give to the community in the upcoming 2024 race," she hoped.
