VP Gibran Takes 120 Orphanage Children School Supply Shopping

Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka personally accompanied 120 children from six social welfare institutions in Gorontalo on a school supply shopping spree. The event, held at the Ramedia Bookstore on Friday, June 19, 2026, aimed to provide essential educational materials ahead of the new academic year.

This initiative is presented as a tangible demonstration of the government's commitment to supporting children's educational needs. It also serves to reinforce the human resource development agenda outlined in President Prabowo Subianto's "Asta Cita" (eight priority programs).

The Vice President's presence and participation in the shopping trip underscore the government's focus on ensuring that children, particularly those in institutional care, have the necessary resources to succeed in their education. The event highlights the connection between government support and the broader goal of national development.
