Minister of Social Affairs Tri Rismaharini provided compensation to the families of two students who died from being electrocuted while crossing the Semarang City flood area some time ago. The delivery of compensation took place at the Margo Laras Pati Center office, attended by the families of the victims of two students and other flood-affected recipients from Ngawi. "The handover of compensation to families affected by this flood is indeed not a resident of Pati, but a resident of Tegal, Jepara and Ngawi," said Social Minister Tri Rismaharini in Pati as quoted by Antara, Friday, January 6. Meanwhile, the incident of the two students who died, he said, was also the place where it happened in Semarang. It's just that, he added, the families of the victims were collected as one in Pati to receive compensation. The value of compensation given to each victim's family is Rp. 15 million. Tri Rismaharini's visit to Pati not only handed over compensation for the families of the deceased, but also handed over aid to residents of Pati Regency who were affected by the flood in Kasiyan Village, Sukolilo District, Pati. Assistance handed over, namely logistics, food, mattresses, tents, rubber boats and folding beds or velbeds, as well as toys for children. In handing over aid to flood victims in Kasiyan Village, the Minister of Social Affairs went directly to the location of the isolated village due to the flood inundation by boarding a rubber boat. Iin Sofiati, the parents of the late Dinda Shefira Angelita (19) from Jatibogor Village, Surodadi District, Tegal Regency, expressed their gratitude for not expecting to get the direct attention of the Minister of Social Affairs Tri Rismaharini. "I also did not expect that the minister's compensation would also be handed over by the minister himself," he said. He hopes that the unfortunate incident that happened to his son on December 31, 2022, will not be repeated, so related parties must ensure that when the flood does not have an open electricity network and endangers local residents.
