Central Jakarta Government together with Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) held blood donation at Mayor Office today.

In this event, Central Jakarta Mayor, Bayu Megahantara encouraged all civil apparatuses (ASN) to donate their blood for those in need. Because blood donation is an act of humanity, especially in the midst of COVID-19 pandemic.

"Today, we are targeting to collect 250 blood bags," he mentioned at the location, Monday (6/8).

Currently, PMI lacks of blood supply. Now, the blood stock only reaches 200 blood bags. While they need around 1,000 blood bags per day.

"Thus we encourage ASN to participate by donating their blood for the common good," he asserted.
