According to him there are a number of things and concerns in the refugee camps, for example in a refugee camp there needs help from a blower fan, because it feels very hot and stuffy, worried about bringing unhealthy air and impacting quickly getting sick.

“Also about the tent, it needs to be checked again if someone leaks the tent,” said Mother Atiek, her nickname.

He added, decent clothes that were piled up like a mountain heap seemed like a table cloth, because it was not well taken care of by the posko team.

But food is still needed in the future, as well as equipment and sleeping mats for refugees, “said Arja.”Refugees are still confused about where they live. We want certainty from the Government whether the land in our area is habitable or not. If it’s not livable we want to be recolored. But if it’s feasible, Alhamdulillah, we will stay here, “Arja said.Besides visiting the refuge post, the group also visited the Miles Post (Military Post). where there are still villages where the road access is still cut off, namely Cibarani and Cisarua villages.
