Presidential Candidate Ganjar Campaigns For Health And Education Programs In Bima NTB

Indonesian President Ganjar Pranowo invites volunteers in Bima City, West Nusa Tenggara, to socialize health and education priority programs in order to alleviate poverty.

"The superior human resources must start from the health sector. The government must be a generation born in good health," said Ganjar when meeting volunteers and the Regional Winning Team (TPD) in a campaign in West Nusa Tenggara, Sunday, December 3.

On that occasion, Ganjar mentioned a number of his priority programs with Vice Presidential Candidate Mahfud Md. ranging from development in the fields of education, health, to poverty alleviation through education.

Ganjar assessed the importance of education as a bridge to eradicate the community from poverty. Access to education is able to bridge students to get jobs.

"It must be right on target. If in the family there are school-age children but drop out of school, the law is mandatory for school," he said.

Moreover, the Ganjar-Mahfud pair has programmed a poor family with at least one undergraduate. There is also one village with at least one health facility and one health worker.

He also invited volunteers and TPD Bima to socialize these programs to the public so that more people would know about the mission to lead Indonesia.

"The question is already there. Which sub-district? Which point? What is the problem? So that we can respond well," he said.

In addition to campaigning in Bima City, Ganjar also continued his campaign on the island of Lombok by meeting volunteers and administrators of other political parties.
