MALUT - Menparekraf Sandiaga Uno pulls a cart as he enters the Lapasi Beach Tourism Village in Lako Akelamo, Sahu, West Halmahera, North Maluku (Malut), Thursday, June 16. The contents of the cart were to help Lala (50), one of the local MSME actors.
Lala is a thatched roofing craftsman. Every day, she and her husband go through the forest by boat looking for one leaf with thorns, but often find it difficult because the ship's engine is small.
"There is a shop not too far from here, there is an engine. The boat engine is bigger, hopefully it can be used to go to sea to get this sago palm leaf," said Sandiaga, removing chunks of the ship's engine from behind a cart to Lala in West Halmahera, North Maluku, Thursday. June 16.
Lala suddenly burst into tears and hugged Menparekraf Sandiaga tightly. He also hopes that the ship's engine assistance can support Lala's business.
"Hopefully it can help. Later next year I will come again. I want to see the business is more advanced. Because he said all the messages are from Ternate. All of them are from Tidore too," said Sandiaga.
Based on the Antara report, Sandiaga's arrival was related to the 2022 Indonesian Tourism Village Award (ADWI) program. Lapasi Beach Tourism Village was selected as the top 50 best tourist villages/villages.
