On the previous occasion, DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan believed that Jakarta residents would be more solid and more united after the COVID-19 pandemic ended.

"We believe that after this pandemic, God willing, Jakarta will be more solid, Jakarta will be more united and Jakarta will be stronger. Why? Because social bonds are built, mutual help is built", said Anies while attending the handover of aid at the Monas area, Central Jakarta, Monday, July 19.

According to Anies, this strength was built by itself considering that the difficult two years had been passed by helping and helping each other.

Anies explained that Jakarta is still in the testing period, especially the Emergency PPKM policy, making the days of the citizens of the capital city full of challenges.

The former Minister of Education and Culture assessed that during the two weeks of Emergency Restrictions on Community Activities (PPKM), the community felt the economic burden.

He also appealed to people who have successfully experienced economic improvement while in Jakarta, to help each other to residents who are lacking in material matters.

"These two weeks have been two weeks full of trials. Therefore, this moment is an opportunity for all of us to share", said Anies.
