JAKARTA - Deputy Mayor of Surabaya, Armuji met Mbah Mursiti (84 years old) at Tambak Wedi Baru Gang 16 Number 78 B, who was forced by his son to become a beggar.

"I regret that happened in Surabaya. This certainly does not reflect the characteristics of the humanist and loving Surabaya residents," said Armuji when meeting Mbah Mursiti, Friday, September 16, quoted from Antara.

The story of Mbah Mursiti who is often forced to work by her children is in the spotlight of netizens following her video on the Tik Tok social media page through the bilqis.mulidiya.agus account.

On Tik Tok there are a number of comments, including from the @Erindah Ika Yuliani account: "I think only in a film like this, it turns out that in real life there are. Hopefully, the mother will be quick to help. Always be healthy and always mother".

Finding this, Armuji then went to Mbah Mursiti's residence which lived with her daughters and grandchildren.

"The video went viral, so we took quick steps and responses. It turned out that the mother, according to her neighbor's confession, was often ordered to beg because her child was not working," he said.

For this reason, the Deputy Mayor offered Mbah Mursiti to stay and be treated at the UPTD Griya Werdha or the Jompo Panti belonging to the Surabaya City Government which has been accommodating the elderly.

"But the child is not pleased. But we remind you not to repeat it again. It's a pity that Mbah Mursiti is 84 years old, of course she is tired when she goes a bit far," said Cak ji, Armuji's nickname.

In addition, he also ordered that the village and local sub-districts pay attention to Mbah Mursiti by allocating food assistance to ensure adequate nutrition and other assistance.
