CIBINONG - Bogor Regent Ade Yasin distributed food items to COVID-19 patients who were self-isolating in their area.

"I have instructed the Bogor Gercep (Quick Movement) team to distribute basic food assistance from village to village, from house to house for those who are self-isolating and are residents who really need it," said Ade Yasin in Cibinong, Bogor, quoted by Antara, Wednesday, July 7th.

According to him, the aid containing food items was distributed to several zones, starting from the eastern, northern, southern and western regions of Bogor Regency.

The chairman of the Bogor Regency COVID-19 Handling Task Force said the Bogor Rapid Action action was one of the strategies to accelerate the handling of COVID-19 in Bogor Regency that did not use APBD funds.

The self-help funds are managed by the Bogor Gercep Team from individual assistance to companies that are established in Bogor Regency.

"This pandemic and humanitarian issue is not only the task of local governments. For that anyone who wants to help people who are exposed to COVID-19 can distribute them through the Bogor Gercep Team, whether in the form of basic necessities, vitamins or medicines, we receive," said Ade Yasin.

The Bogor Regent stated that the government's hard work in handling COVID-19 in Bogor Regency would be meaningless if people continued to ignore health protocols.

"I ask the public to continue to be disciplined and obey health protocols wherever they are so that this COVID-19 pandemic ends soon. Through the Bogor Gercep team, I also order to remind residents in the field to always follow the 5M health protocol, most importantly wearing masks, maintaining distance, washing hands, avoiding crowds and reducing mobility," he said.
