We are compact, compact feel flooded. But it is not yet compact to solve the flood problem. At the same time, the same day, the same hour, we both experienced flood problems. Cooking experienced flooding, he experienced floods,” he said. Andra said MPU as a strategic forum for building synergy between regions. He hopes that this forum will not only be a place for dialogue, but also deliver concrete steps. “Alhamdulillah, now (MPU) develops to ten provinces and can hopefully develop. Because it is a kind of forum, we have a dialogue, discuss our forum to find solutions,” he explained. (Call/IDN) HOEGENG Awards 2025 Read the inspiring story of the exemplary police candidate here
