Klojen, MC – Malang Mayor H. Moch. Anton together with the Chairperson of the Malang City PKK Team Hj. Dewi Farida Suryani provided assistance to approximately 1.000 pedicab drivers spread across five sub-districts at the Mayor's Official Residence on Jl. Ijen No. 2 Malang, Monday (29/2).
On this occasion, the Mayor of Malang who is often called Abah Anton was also accompanied by the Regional Secretary (Sekda) of Malang City, Ir. Cipto Wiyono, M.Si and several heads of SKPD (Regional Work Units) within the Malang City Government. This kind of charity is always carried out by the mayor who is known to be generous.
Abah Anton advised all pedicab drivers to be grateful for the fruits of development that have been carried out by the government. "The way is to maintain our beloved Malang City by maintaining public facilities and supporting government programs," he appealed.
The vision of building a dignified Malang City, continued Abah Anton, can be realized if all elements of society work together with a spirit of togetherness to keep the city conducive. "Currently the parks are good, this must also be appreciated by maintaining the parks," he said.
The distribution of this compensation is inseparable from the promise of the PKB politician when he ran for leader who would return his salary as mayor for the benefit of the community. "I have promised, my salary as mayor I collect and I give it to the community in the form of compensation like this," continued Abah Anton.
Not only that, in front of thousands of residents, he promised to improve Malang City so that it could become an attraction for residents from outside the city, which would in turn be able to boost the economic conditions of the residents.Visiting "What we do every two weeks is intended for worship and to improve the welfare of the community," he explained.
Meanwhile, religious figure of Malang City, KH. Marzuki Mustamar also advised to improve the quality of life through education. Currently, school is free and it is an opportunity to raise one's status. "If the father is a pedicab driver, don't let his children be the same. Tell the children to study so they can rise in status," he advised.
He also appealed to the public to be optimistic that Malang City under the leadership of Abah Anton will be able to realize the hopes of residents who want equal welfare and infrastructure development. "Let's support all the mayor's programs, especially those that side with the common people," said Kiai Marzuki. (say/yon)
