JAKARTA - Volunteers from Friends of Sandi Uno train Jakarta residents who are members of the Sukses Sejahtera Community to produce laundry detergent in Jagakarsa, South Jakarta.

"We hope that the participants will gain new abilities so that they can be developed and can be used as businesses," said the chairman of Sahabat Sandi Uno Jakarta, Faizal Fiqri in a written statement quoted by ANTARA, Friday, June 24.

Faizal said the training was to develop skills and competencies in creating products so that they become entrepreneurs for the community.

Faizal said the people of Jakarta will also get business assistance from production to product marketing to develop an entrepreneurial spirit.

"We will continue to provide assistance to the 20 best participants regarding 'branding', products, licensing and packaging which we also prepare," said Faizal.

Faizal also said that the volunteers encouraged Sandiaga to run for the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres).

The reason, disclosed by Faizal, is that Sandiaga is an inspirational figure for small and micro medium enterprises (MSMEs) and "mothers".

Previously, Sandiaga also rolled out the "juragan catfish lalap" program to reduce unemployment in the DKI Jakarta area, such as Bidara Cina, Petamburan, Pesanggrahan and Cakung.
