Ismanto (52), wounded at his home in Sengi Village, Shaman District, Magelang Regency, Central Java, last April. In the midst of a pandemic, Ismanto took the initiative to create a food exchange program for food.
Different backgrounds pose no impediment to people determined to help one another. The spirit of humanitarianism only serves to bridge differences in relieving minority and marginalized groups of their burdens as a result of the Covid-19 epidemic. Social divisions are thus eliminated by an awareness of the need for mutual support.
Those who have risen to help fellow citizens don’t care about their different upbringings, as the activists of Solidaritas Pangan Jogja (Yogyakarta Food Solidarity) have demonstrated. The movement was started by creative workers, students, social activists, tourism operators and housewives.
