Simpang Hulu District Head and PT Mayawana Persada deliver clean water tanks, solar lights, and healthcare support to Kualan Hilir and Meraban villages.

Access to clean water, reliable healthcare facilities, and adequate street lighting serves as the essential foundation for family well-being at the grassroots level. Recognizing this critical need, the Head of Simpang Hulu District, Christina Yesi, S.H., led a direct working visit to review community conditions in Kualan Hilir Village and Meraban Preparation Village, located in Ketapang Regency, West Kalimantan, on October 10th, 2026.


During the field inspection, accompanied by PT Mayawana Persada representatives, local village heads, hamlet chiefs (kadus), neighborhood unit leaders (RT), and community members, essential community needs were directly addressed to coordinate accurate, targeted solutions.

"Today's activities, together with village heads, hamlet heads, RT leaders, and local residents, involve accompanying and attending the community engagement programs initiated by PT Mayawana Persada, which are attended today by Ibu Bella and her team," stated Christina Yesi on-site. She also expressed appreciation for the Elderly Posyandu health services at the Kualan Hilir Village Sub-Health Center (Pustu) alongside infrastructure handovers in Meraban.


Reflecting a true collaborative effort between local government, the private sector, and local communities, strategic assistance was deployed to match specific regional requirements:


  • Clean Water & Solar Lighting in Lelayang Hamlet: PT Mayawana Persada delivered water storage tanks (tandon) to secure clean water availability for residents, alongside solar-powered street lighting units to enhance nighttime community safety and activity.

  • Healthcare Support at Meraban Pustu: Medical support was reinforced through the provision of essential medicines and Supplementary Feeding Programs (PMT) specifically dedicated to elderly participants attending the Posyandu.
