Jakarta DPRD Vice Chairman Abdurahman Suhaimi appreciated the Jakarta Provincial Government's policy in a scholarship program for children of health workers who died while treating COVID-19 patients.

According to him, this scholarship program is very worthy to be given as a form of respect or appreciation by the government for health workers who have struggled to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic.

"We really appreciate this program. In addition to the aspect of life safety for health workers, other aspects need to be considered, such as this scholarship assistance.

He hoped that the city kept intensifying assistance if the number of health workers increased. It was because their parents have fought to the death for the sake of the public.

As for the information, the scholarship program is strengthened by the Governor's Decree number 739/2020. Currently there are 12 people who have received these scholarships. It can be disbursed once a year starting from Early Childhood Education (PAUD) to undergraduate colleges.
