SOLO - Every day, the Mayor of Solo, Gibran Rakabuming Raka, is never absent from bringing rice to be distributed to residents. This rice is placed in the back of Gibran's official car. Gibran distributed this rice in 5 kg packaging. At first glance, the rice distributed looks like rice in general. However, if you look in more detail, there is a sticker with a size of 10x5cm. In the rice there is a picture of him walking and wearing a white shirt combined with gray pants.

Beside it is the inscription Solo in all capital letters and decorated with various descriptions of the condition of the city of Solo.

At the bottom is written the words 'This is the time for us to do what we can to take care of each other. Speeding vaccinations speeding economic recovery'. While at the very bottom is written the name Gibran Rakabuming.

When confirmed, Gibran said this rice was rice from his personal funds. When giving rice, Gibran also wanted to convey a message to the community regarding this.

"There is (the message). Let's see," said Gibran quoted by ERA.id, Wednesday, September 29.

He said the rice was rice that he distributed to the community every day. Every day he also brings if the rice stock runs out. Gibran also revealed that the rice was bought with his personal salary.

"I often say, after all, the car contains rice. Every day before going home I would definitely give rice. Wis is a knock," said Gibran.

Usually, Gibran brings 50 bags of rice to distribute on his way to and from work. But he never calculated how much budget he spent to buy this rice.

"It doesn't count," he said.

When asked about another message he wanted to convey when he distributed rice, Gibran only said that the rice was for distribution to the public.

There is no specific signal regarding the distribution of this rice.

"There is no signal whatsoever. Why is rice a signal, ben wareg (to be full)," said Gibran.
