I also encourage the community to maintain, care for, and utilize this bore well properly so that it can provide long-term benefits,” he stated.
ABPEDNAS Chairman and Vice Chairman for Education Affairs of the Jakarta Chapter of the Indonesian Journalists Association (PWI Jaya), Indra Utama, emphasized the importance of clean water facilities in supporting daily life within rural communities.

Indra Utama further highlighted that community involvement is a key factor in maintaining public facilities, ensuring that the program delivers long-term social and health benefits.
On the same occasion, Chairman of the ABPEDNAS Supervisory Board, Prof. Dr. Reda Manthovani, stressed the importance of collaboration among all stakeholders in sustaining social programs.

Meanwhile, Independent Commissioner of PT SUCOFINDO (PERSERO), Mahatma Gandhi, expressed appreciation to all parties involved in supporting the clean water initiative.
“Clean water is a basic necessity that is vital to human life. Access to clean water directly impacts public health, productivity, education, and overall quality of life. Therefore, this clean water well development program holds significant strategic value,” he stated.
