Serahkan 300 Paket PHBS di Yapen, Linda Onibala juga Semangati Kader Posyandu

SERUI – Tim Penggerak Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (TP PKK) Papua menyerahkan 300 paket Pola Hidup Bersih dan Sehat (PHBS) di sejumlah Posyandu, dalam lawatannya di Kabupaten Kepulauan Yapen, Rabu (18/10/2023).

Paket diserahkan Penjabat Ketua TP PKK Papua Linda Onibala secara simbolis, diterima petugas Posyandu Mambruk Kampung Cina Tua, Distrik Yapen Selatan, Serui, Kabupaten Kepulauan Yapen.

Linda Onibala dalam sambutannya mengapresiasi para kader Posyandu setempat dan berharap bantuan yang diberikan, bisa bermanfaat mempercepat penurunan stuntung di wilayah setempat.

“Mungkin bantuan ini belum bisa semua diberikan ke seluruh Posyandu di Yapen, tapi yang ada dulu diberikan nanti kedepan kita lihat (upayakan bantu)”.

“Dan saya mengapresiasi para kader Posyando di Yapen, yang gigih dan berjuang memperbaiki pelayanan kesehatan di Yapen,” ucapnya.

Penjabat Gubernur Papua, Muhammad Ridwan Rumasukun menyatakan pentingnya pemberian asupan gizi yang rutin sejak usia dini bagi balita, termasuk vaksinasi.

Hal demikian karena anak-anak yang terkena penyakit polio misalnya, kata Pj Gubernur Rumasukun, tidak akan mendukung kehidupannya di masa mendatang.

“Begitu juga dengan stunting. Makanya saya harap Penjabat Bupati Yapen dan kita semua agar bisa selamatkan anak-anak ini mulai dari Posyandu.”

“Sebab anak-anak ini generasi emas di 2040. Saya biasa ulang-ulang bilang jangan-jangan anak di Posyandu sini nanti ada yang jadi bupati. Oleh karena itu, kita sama-sama serius menangani. Karena ini tangggung jawab kita sebagai pemerintah dan menunjukkan bahwa pemerintah hadir untuk rakyat,” tandasnya.

PKK Papua sebelumnya menyerahkan masing-masing 300 paket PHBS ke sejumlah Posyandu dalam kunjungannya ke Kabupaten Sarmi dan Supiori dalam agenda kunjungan kerja mempercepat penurunan stunting. ***

SERUI – The Papua Family Welfare Empowerment Driving Team handed over 300 packages of Clean and Healthy Lifestyle (PHBS) at a number of Integrated Service Posts (Posyandu), during the visit to Yapen Islands Regency, Wednesday (10/18/2023).

The package was handed over by the Acting Chairman of the Family Welfare Empowerment Driving Team of Papua, Linda Onibala symbolically, received by officers of the Mambruk Integrated Service Post in Kampung Cina Tua, South Yapen District, Serui, Yapen Islands Regency.

Linda Onibala in her speech appreciated the local Integrated Service Posts cadres and hoped that the assistance provided could be useful in accelerating stunting reduction in the local area.  

"Maybe this assistance cannot be given to all Integrated Service Posts in Yapen, but we will see later".

"And I appreciate the cadres of the Integrated Service Posts in Yapen, who are persistent and strive to improve health services in Yapen," she said.

The Acting Governor of Papua, Muhammad Ridwan Rumasukun stated the importance of providing regular nutrition from an early age for toddlers, including vaccinations.

Because children affected by polio will not support their lives in the future.

"Likewise, with stunting. I hope the Acting Regent of Yapen and all of us can save these children starting from the Integrated Service Posts."

"These children are the golden generation in 2040. I used to say over and over again that maybe the children in the Integrated Service Posts here will become regents. Therefore, we are equally serious in handling it as a government responsibility," he said.

The Family Welfare Empowerment of Papua previously handed over 300 PHBS packages to a number of Integrated Service Posts during the visit to Sarmi and Supiori districts in the agenda of a working visit to accelerate stunting reduction. ***
