Minister of Social Affairs Tri Rismaharini (ANTARA)

JAKARTA - The Ministry of Social Affairs (Kemensos) together with the Presidential Special Staff for Social Affairs, Angkie Yudhistia, prepared a module for the deaf to be able to speak.

“We will make a module so they can talk because so far they can't hear. We will cooperate with Ms. Angkie," said Social Minister Tri Rismaharini to reporters in Jakarta, Antara, Wednesday, September 29.

Social Minister Risma said the module could ease the work of parents in training their deaf children. She received information that many children have lost their hearing.

In addition, the module can help the child concerned to add hours of study and absorb more knowledge.

“This is important because if it is replaced with a module, we hope that they will be able to talk soon. The module was made without a budget," said Risma.

Risma also prepares so that other people with disabilities can live normal lives with assistive devices that have been facilitated by the Ministry of Social Affairs.
