JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung gave a certificate of appreciation to a number of DKI Jakarta Fire and Rescue Service (Gulkarmat) officers for successfully winning 7 medals in the Singapore-Global Firefighter andbroker Challenge event in 2023.

Acting Head of the DKI Jakarta Gulkarmat Service, Satriadi Gunawan, said that the competition, which was held in Singapore, was attended by 23 countries and Indonesia, represented by the DKI Jakarta Gulkarmat Service fire department.

In this "Ninja Warrior" competition, the Jakarta firefighters won 1 and 4 in the Braveheart team challenge category. Then in the team category they got the best resources application, best safety application, and best planning team.

"We got 1st place in the brokeheart category, that's the endurance of firefighters like the Ninja Warrior, facing challenges with the fastest time. Then there is also a connection with the evacuation of collapsed buildings," said Satriadi at DKI Jakarta City Hall, Wednesday, April 23.

Representatives of the Jakarta fire department, admitted Satriadi, went through a long selection process before leaving for Singapore.

"The process is almost 6 months. We will conduct an internal selection at the pusdiklat, we will select which is the best up to several stages, and finally these are our teams that we sent to Singapore to represent firefighters throughout Indonesia in the international arena," explained Satriadi.

From this achievement score, Satriadi hopes that the Jakarta fire department can maintain trust by the community to be relied on in efforts to overcome and rescue during an emergency.

"Currently, the public's trust in the fire department is very high. Now, this is a challenge, a challenge for us how we can maintain the trust we have achieved," he said.
