On this occasion, the PKB politician appealed to the public to continue to apply strict health protocols. He reminded, the COVID-19 pandemic is not over yet.

"Stay disciplined in maintaining health procedures. Wear a mask. If you don't have a booster, then a booster first. Especially if you want to go home tomorrow. If you have a booster, the homecoming will be comfortable," he said.

One of the recipients of basic food packages from Pejuang Village, Medan Satria District, Bekasi City, Khodijah (50) admitted that he was happy with the provision of basic food packages from the Minister of Manpower.

Khodijah said that basic food assistance was important at a time when the prices of many basic necessities were increasing. The aid is also important because it is approaching Eid.

"I thank the Minister. I am happy and grateful to have been given this assistance. This helps for our needs," he said.

The distribution of basic needs at the three locations is part of the SAPA ASIK (Socialization Without Physical Contact) Employment Social Security Program organized by BPJS Ketenagakerjaan.
