Prabowo Asks For Environmental Education To Enter The Silabus, Teachers Asked To Print A Generation Of Nature Keepers

JAKARTA President Prabowo Subianto asked teachers throughout Indonesia to include environmental education material in the learning silabus. This step is considered important to raise students' awareness in protecting nature and understanding the threat of climate change.

In his remarks at the Commemoration of National Teacher's Day (HGN) 2025 at the Indonesia Arena, Friday, November 28, Prabowo emphasized that climate change, global warming, and environmental damage are big challenges that are being faced by the world.

"I think teachers throughout Indonesia have started to do this, but we need to add to the silabus. Awareness of protecting the natural environment, protecting our forests is very important," said President Prabowo as quoted by Antara.

He emphasized that environmental education must be directed at concrete understanding so that students really preserve the forest, prevent tree clearing, and care for rivers to stay clean and function optimally.

Really prevent tree felling, forest destruction. We also have to keep rivers clean so that they can distribute water that can suddenly come. This is our joint effort," he said.

On this occasion, Prabowo also conveyed the development of handling floods and landslides in Aceh, North Sumatra, and West Sumatra. He said the government was moving quickly to distribute aid by land and air.

"But indeed the conditions are very difficult, many roads are cut off, the weather is also not possible. Sometimes helicopters and planes are difficult to land," Prabowo said.

Four Indonesian Air Force three Hercules aircraft and one A400 have been flown to bring aid to the nearest airport in the disaster area according to the direction of the President. The assistance consists of tents, rubber boats, generators, communication tools, signal boosters, medical teams, medicines, ready-to-eat food, blankets, and other necessities.

Cabinet Secretary Teddy Indra Wijaya added that the delivery of aid this Friday morning was not the first. Since the incident on November 25, President Prabowo immediately instructed all relevant teams to move quickly.
