BOGOR - President Joko Widodo distributed direct cash assistance (BLT) at Cisarua Market and Ciawi Market located in the Puncak area, Bogor Regency, West Java.
Jokowi arrived at Cisarua Market at 14.30 WIB accompanied by Social Minister Tri Rismaharini, West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil and Bogor Regent Ade Yasin.
"Earlier, he provided direct cash assistance and basic necessities for traders with a value of IDR 1.2 million. The point is he wants small business actors to continue to grow by providing this stimulus," said Ade Yasin after accompanying Jokowi, quoted by Antara, Thursday, April 21.
After distributing aid at Cisarua Market, President Jokowi and his entourage shifted to Ciawi Market and distributed similar aid.
The arrival of the number one person in Indonesia has attracted the attention of residents and road users. Even so, the BLT distribution event was conducive even though after Jokowi left there was a traffic jam.
From Ciawi Market, President Jokowi's entourage then headed to Sukasari Market, which is located in the Bogor City area.
Meanwhile, a BLT recipient at Ciawi Market, Sarilah (53) said she was happy and grateful to receive the help because she was in a difficult situation after her husband came home after being treated at the hospital.
