JAKARTA - PDI-P Secretary General Hasto Kristiyanto said the track record of Social Minister Tri Rismaharini in fighting for people with disabilities is clear and has been proven.

But it is equivalent to motivating them to become proud Indonesian citizens and actually lifting them up to be able to create more power than others. Especially mental health, persistence in the struggle. That's what Ibu Risma built," he added.
