Komalasari's dream to become an open TNI again thanks to the People's School

The School of Jakarta-People opens new hope for children from underprivileged families who have the potential to fall out of school or stop going to school so that they can return to pursue ideals. This can be seen when Saifullah Yusuf (Gus Ipul) dialogue Minister of Social Affairs with 100 students from the 34th High School (SRMA) of Lebak Regency, Banten, dialogue. “I want my kids to dare to come forward, to convey something,” Gus Ipul said Friday (1/8/2025). One who dared to appear was Komalasari, a student of Pagelaran Village, Melimping District, Lebak Regency, the son of a construction worker named Sadi. Komala fell out of school for a year due to economic restrictions. Browse to continue the content “Why are you falling out of school, boy?” Gus Ipul asked. “Because of the economic inability in parents’ households, sir,” replies Komala. Komala told me that he had a dream to become a member of the TNI. The ideals founded because they could not continue with the school. Through the people’s school, however, he found hope to realize his dream. “Try to hear it, so he fell out of school for a year, so with the People’s School there is new hope,” Gus Ipul said. “There are. To achieve goals to make parents happy,” answered Komala. Komala’s answer made the participants move. Gus Ipul called Komala as an example of unwavering spirit. “Examples of this spirit man, so surprisingly, very special. I’m proud of you Komala, I want you to succeed with others,” he said. Komala also expressed his gratitude to President Prabowo Subianto for continuing his studies at people’s schools. “Previously, I would like to thank Mr President Prabowo Subianto for establishing a boarding school for the Indonesian population that could not afford,” he said. In addition to Komala, there are also stories of Hera, other students who claimed that they might not be able to continue with the school if people’s schools never exist. “If there is no public school, it might not go to school,” he said. Hera told me, her father worked as a farm worker with an income of about RP. 700 thousand per month to support seven family members. He even had time to think to work to help the family economy before he got to know the People’s School. “My hope as a folk school students, hopefully everyone who comes in here can be successful, our hope can be achieved,” Hera said. For information, three Phase 1B Pinisan Breakers Schools in Lebak Regency, Ponorogo Regency and Pasuruan City began the introduction to the school environment (MPLS) today. The plan, next week, will open 5 additional points, and on August 15 at 29 other points. In this way, there were a total of 37 additional points that started working in early August. This figure follows the previous 63 points opened last July 14. Not just stopped at 100 pioneering schools offered in July and August, in September, other points will also be launched, so that a total of 159 people’s schools in the school year 2025/2026 will be.
