Presidential candidate number 1, Anies Baswedan, promised to provide social protection guarantees, namely BPJS Kesehatan and BPJS Ketenagakerjaan for fishermen.

This was conveyed by Anies after meeting fishermen at the Bronjong Fish Auction Place, Lamongan, East Java.

"We will include the fishermen in the BPJS Ketenagakerjaan and Health program so that they go to sea in peace," said Anies, Friday, December 29.

According to Anies, the promise that will be fulfilled if elected as President in 2024 needs to be done because fishermen need protection.

The safety protection of this livelihood-finding activity, continued Anies, has also been wanted for a long time by fishermen. Thus, Anies views that BPJS can be a guarantee for the safety of fishermen to carry out their work.

"We don't want an accident. But if there is a work accident, then his family will have a support to be able to continue his life," he said.

In addition, Anies also promised the safety and availability of diesel fuel stocks and made it easier for licensing to go to sea for fishermen.

In a discussion session with fishermen, Anies listened to their complaints that they had been having difficulty getting diesel fuel for 2 months.

"I'm wearing a T-shirt that reads 'Solar Langka' which will later be guaranteed "I'm not asking all of you to choose me. We came to offer a change. If it's suitable, choose me," he explained.
