In [00:00:30] this, Pramono invites global partners to invest and cooperate [00:00:33] in building Jakarta. In front of world city leaders, [00:00:37] Pramono conveyed that Jakarta's economic growth in the [00:00:40] 2026 quarter [00:00:42] reached 5.52% [00:00:45] with 2.5% inflation. According to [00:00:48] Pramono, this economic stability [00:00:50] texture of the clothes encouraged an investment of 10.5 billion US [00:00:53] dollars into Jakarta within 6 months. The DKI Jakarta Provincial [00:00:56] Government also offered 37 urban development projects. With [00:01:00] a potential investment value of up to $7 billion US dollars, [00:01:04] the U-20 Mayoral Summit took place from September 19 [00:01:07] to 21, 2026 in New York. This forum discussed three main [00:01:11] themes, namely affordable housing and [00:01:14] homelessness, climate action and urban resilience, and [00:01:17] the protection of immigrant communities and human [00:01:20] mobility. [00:01:30] General TNI Maroli Simanjuntak closed [00:01:33] the Commander-in-Chief's Cup Offroad tournament in commemoration of the 81st [00:01:36] TNI Anniversary. The tournament, held from September [00:01:40] 18 to 20, 2026, [00:01:44] was attended by hundreds of participants from various regions, covering a track of approximately [00:01:47] 44 km. Kasat, accompanied by [00:01:50] Danpusenif, Lieutenant General [00:01:53] Yes. What TNI Iwan Setiawan, presented prizes to the winners [00:01:56] from three competition categories: motorcross and car. [00:02:01] The total prize money contested reached 700 million rupiah. [00:02:04] The closing series also included the distribution of basic necessities and [00:02:07] wheelchairs to the community, as well as popular entertainment and door prizes. [00:02:11] This social activity is part of the 81st TNI Anniversary series that [00:02:15] directly addresses the needs of [00:02:16] the community. [00:02:22] Yes, so this is in the context of the 81st [00:02:25] TNI Anniversary, we are actually spread [00:02:28] all over Indonesia. However, Mr. Iwan here [00:02:32] with his creativity organized [00:02:36] entertainment activities and also many social activities, [00:02:39] including mass circumcisions [00:02:43] for 100 to 1200 people, [00:02:46] 5,000 basic necessities, and so on. [00:02:49] So I also took the time [00:02:53] from several activities to see what the military organized. That's all for [00:02:56] this hot news. The next hot news will be available in one hour. [00:03:04] The members of the farmer group kind of support [00:03:13] In understanding an issue, many factors make it [00:03:17] biased and not [00:03:18] clear. [00:03:23] See and understand every issue more clearly from our [00:03:27] point of view, editor. [00:04:00] Indonesia Gold segment in Metro Sport [00:04:21] recently it has become increasingly clear that villages [00:04:25] are indeed the future of Indonesia because [00:04:28] more and more... young people are returning to [00:04:32] the villages and utilizing the extraordinary [00:04:36] potential of the villages. In fact, most of the village children [00:04:40] who used to look for jobs outside the city, [00:04:44] now or recently they have returned, because [00:04:47] the village provides extraordinary benefits [00:04:50] for the economic development of [00:04:53] Indonesia. And what is also interesting is that children in [00:04:56] urban areas also see the extraordinary [00:05:00] potential of the villages. With their ability [00:05:02] to master digital technology, they [00:05:05] come and then utilize the potential [00:05:09] by utilizing the technology they [00:05:13] have. Now, this is a story that always [00:05:16] attracts my attention, because many still do not [00:05:20] realize how much the village and [00:05:23] its potential can still be developed [00:05:26] to the fullest. But today I want [00:05:30] to talk about the village people [00:05:33] who also utilize the potential in their village [00:05:36] for empowerment and improvement [00:05:39] of the welfare of the community there. Now, [00:05:43] who is our guest today? The [00:05:46] first is a woman, let's [00:05:49] welcome Wilhelmina [00:05:51] Malidap. [00:05:58] Thank you for coming. If we look at the [00:06:02] worn, we already know where it's from. Does anyone know [00:06:06] NTT? [00:06:09] Where exactly in Southwest Sumba. [00:06:15] Please sit down. [00:06:19] So Southwest Sumba, yes, I have been [00:06:23] there before. I know [00:06:26] the natural beauty very well. I also feel the hospitality [00:06:29] of the community, but I also see potential that has not [00:06:33] been explored there yet. Yes, many young people even [00:06:36] find the city more attractive. But [00:06:40] the women there are... driving a lot [00:06:43] of the economy, especially economic [00:06:46] empowerment for plantations. Yes, and [00:06:50] of course, for weaving. [00:06:53] Yes. Now, she is usually called Mama [00:06:56] Mina, right? Yes. Okay, Mama Mina. [00:07:00] Exactly, Mama Mina has activities [00:07:02] for women's empowerment. [00:07:06] did you do? Uh, well, [00:07:09] as a woman, I [00:07:13] initially only knew [00:07:16] the kitchen, the well, [00:07:18] and [00:07:20] the bed. Well, the kitchen, [00:07:23] the well, the bed. Okay. So the circle was just that. That [00:07:27] was typical for women there. Yes, since marriage. What does [00:07:30] the kitchen, well, and bed mean to women there? [00:07:34] Only knowing and taking care of that since [00:07:37] the beginning of marriage. But [00:07:40] when we... What, living [00:07:44] in groups, our farmer groups [00:07:47] started to change. So as a woman, [00:07:51] I then invited [00:07:55] the mothers around [00:07:58] the hamlet to form a farmer group together. [00:08:02] So in 2007, I [00:08:05] formed a farmer group called [00:08:08] the Dewa Women Farmer Group. Dewa. [00:08:12] Yes, so what does that mean? It means [00:08:15] kindred spirits. Okay, so all the members are women. [00:08:18] Now, before that, [00:08:22] the mothers there were concerned with [00:08:25] the kitchen, the well, and the bed. [00:08:28] Yes, so the income or [00:08:31] those who had income were only the men there. Yes, only [00:08:35] the men. Uh, if [00:08:38] we women, when it was time [00:08:40] to plant, we planted corn [00:08:44] and rice. That was all we did back then. [00:08:46] Okay, with such a condition for women, [00:08:50] how usually do men behave and view [00:08:54] women? Oh, at that time, when we [00:08:57] formed the farmer group, I approached these [00:09:01] women to ask their husbands' permission [00:09:04] whether their wives were allowed to join the Dewa Women Farmer Group. [00:09:08] If yes, they could join; if not? [00:09:12] Well, you had to ask your husband's permission. Yes. [00:09:16] But where did the idea or [00:09:19] inspiration come from to empower [00:09:22] women to become farmers? Where did that come from? Uh, so first, Mr., [00:09:26] I attended a meeting [00:09:29] held by the adult farmer group. I [00:09:40] there. When I was serving hot water, I happened to hear [00:09:43] that the PPI wanted to help with these [00:09:45] seeds. So, no one there wanted to plant vegetables yet, [00:09:49] but I was immediately interested in that help. [00:09:53] Finally, I thought [00:09:56] that when [00:09:59] this happened, it might bring about a change for me as [00:10:03] a mother who wanted to fight [00:10:06] for women's rights. At that point, [00:10:10] I was very interested in the seed assistance. [00:10:12] But I didn't know the planting method. [00:10:16] But at that time, I dared to ask if [00:10:20] they could give vegetable seeds so [00:10:23] we could plant them. Then, "Do you have a farmer group?" I [00:10:27] said, "Not yet, I will form one later if you give us the seeds." If [00:10:31] given the seeds, then given yes, given the seeds, but at that time we [00:10:35] asked them to help us with the [00:10:38] planting method, from propagation [00:10:42] to soil preparation to the planting process. When [00:10:45] it was given, a farmer group had to be formed. Yes. [00:10:49] Then Mama Mina immediately formed a farmer group. When it was given, I hadn't [00:10:53] formed one yet. Yes. Then I observed first, followed first, [00:10:57] uh, after the seeds had been sown, then I immediately went [00:11:00] to houses to gather the mothers. How [00:11:04] was the reaction of the women there when they were invited to join this farmer group? They came and [00:11:08] saw the seeds that had grown and then started to participate. [00:11:11] Only then did they believe. So we immediately took a piece of paper and wrote [00:11:15] down names. At that time, there were only 15 people. From those [00:11:19] 15, the plan was to form a group leader, but [00:11:23] we didn't know how to form a leader. Finally, we asked [00:11:26] for assistance from a agricultural extension worker [00:11:29] who hadn't entered that village [00:11:32] yet, named Mr. Aris. He is [00:11:36] from Flores but lives in Sumba. [00:11:40] So he helped with the administration of this farmer [00:11:43] group, how to elect [00:11:46] the leader, the secretary, the treasurer, even though [00:11:50] there was no money yet, there was already a treasurer. [00:11:53] Yes, preparation, right? Preparation. [00:11:55] Yes, so who became the leader that day? At that time, I was chosen. [00:11:58] Okay, Mama Mina, what is your educational background? [00:12:01] Uh, high school. [00:12:04] High school. Okay, what about your husband? [00:12:08] Elementary school. Okay, but your husband [00:12:11] allowed Mama Mina to be the leader of the farmer group that day? [00:12:15] He allowed it. Okay, so your husband supports you? Yes. [00:12:18] There's no feeling of, "Oh, my wife will be better than [00:12:22] me. I'll be embarrassed as a husband." No, there's [00:12:25] none of that. So [00:12:48] Wikokokora Village, WW Tengah District, [00:12:51] located in Southwest Sumba, East Nusa Tenggara. [00:12:55] The majority of its people work as [00:12:57] farmers. [00:13:00] One of them is Wilhel Minapa, or [00:13:04] affectionately called Mama Mina. This woman, born on August [00:13:07] 24, 1974, [00:13:09] is a tenacious farmer who [00:13:13] fights for the advancement of farmers, especially [00:13:16] women in her village, [00:13:20] fighting for the advancement of farmers, especially [00:13:23] women in her village. Farming and [00:13:25] cooperatives. [00:13:29] led by Mama Mina successfully increased their income [00:13:32] fivefold. From an income [00:13:35] of around 200,000 rupiah per month, [00:13:38] it increased to 4 million rupiah per [00:13:41] month. Mama Mina also strives to build [00:13:45] a sense of mutual cooperation among women farmers to reduce [00:13:49] the rate of violence against women in her village. Mama [00:13:53] Mina has been active in the coalition. Indonesian Women of Southwest [00:13:56] Sumba Regency since [00:13:59] 2013. In addition, women's [00:14:03] empowerment activities by creating processed [00:14:06] food products are also carried out by Mama Mina [00:14:09] so that women farmers in her village can be economically [00:14:13] empowered. [00:14:15] Currently, Mama Mina manages approximately 2 hectares of agricultural [00:14:19] land in Southwest Sumba. Mama Mina actively [00:14:22] plants various types of horticultural crops. [00:14:55] They are powerless, right? Not [00:14:57] independent, they become victims of domestic [00:15:01] violence. Yes, that's true. In Mama Mina's place, [00:15:04] does such a thing also happen? It happens, [00:15:08] sir. Okay, what usually happens to women there? [00:15:11] They get hit by their husbands, not to mention being verbally [00:15:15] abused, driven back to their parents' [00:15:18] home. That's it, that's because of the economic [00:15:21] situation. Okay, everyone is stressed, [00:15:26] right? Yes. So then, [00:15:28] before the existence of this women's farmer group, [00:15:31] what did the men usually work as there? [00:15:35] Uh, usually they worked as farmers. Then there [00:15:38] were weaving activities of bamboo mats, [00:15:42] like in the video earlier, right? Yes. As for the [00:15:45] women, Mama Mina said she was a high school graduate, [00:15:48] right? Yes. But what about the average woman there? What's their education level? Some [00:15:52] are elementary school, [00:15:55] even some didn't finish elementary school. They haven't planted vegetables, [00:15:59] only relying on their husband's income. How much is [00:16:03] that salary in 1 month? [00:16:05] 150,000. [00:17:29] footprints, compiling actual [00:17:32] instructions. I'm confused. I've been thinking about where [00:17:36] this came from. I've never seen wood this [00:17:39] big. Law enforcement against this is not [00:17:42] just an environmental issue, but also a sovereign [00:17:45] issue. Bring forth the truth without [00:17:49] compromise. [00:17:52] Reality every Saturday at 9 [00:17:55] PM. [00:17:58] A busy day is already [00:17:59] a routine. [00:18:03] Now it's time to break free from the daytime [00:18:05] routine. [00:18:09] Watch Q&A [00:18:11] again, [00:18:14] top issue, top [00:18:16] economy, cover both [00:18:19] sides, controversy [00:18:21] every Monday to Friday at 1 [00:18:25] PM. It's time to know. [00:18:29] World Cleanup Day is celebrated every September [00:18:32] 20th. This commemoration is a global social [00:18:36] action that involves millions of volunteers from over [00:18:39] 180 countries to clean the earth from waste problems. [00:18:43] The series of World Cleanup Day campaigns in Indonesia was opened on August [00:18:47] 18, 2026, at Lambung Mangkurat University, [00:18:50] Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan, with the peak action on [00:18:54] September 20th. The main focus of World Cleanup Day in [00:18:57] Indonesia is to encourage behavioral change in independent waste [00:19:01] management, considering the high volume of national waste that has not been [00:19:04] optimally managed. So now you know, right? [00:19:21] And then there were [00:19:24] farmer groups formed, right, including women's farmer [00:19:27] groups. Yes. The initial members were 15. How many [00:19:31] members are there in the women's farmer group now? 30. [00:19:34] 30. How many is that? Out of the number of women [00:19:38] in that village? If in one [00:19:41] village, the special women's farmer group [00:19:44] in my hamlet has 30 people. So my [00:19:48] group is specifically a women's farmer group in my [00:19:52] hamlet, while in other hamlets there are also [00:19:55] groups. Okay, but they are not [00:19:58] women's groups, they are mixed. Oh, mixed. The special [00:20:02] ones are only in Mama Mina's [00:20:04] village, in the hamlet. Oh, in the hamlet? Oh, this is a village and [00:20:08] then there's a smaller hamlet, right? Yes, smaller again. Okay. [00:20:12] So what did you plant? You planted [00:20:15] vegetables, chili, tomatoes, kangkung. [00:20:19] Who buys that? [00:20:22] Not the seeds, but the harvest. Oh, that will be sold in [00:20:26] the market. It sells well. [00:20:28] From selling that, how much [00:20:32] is the average income of this farmer group in 1 [00:20:35] month? In one week, [00:20:39] it's about 2 million rupiah, so if it's 1 [00:20:42] month, then it's about 4 million, 4 [00:20:46] million. What was the average income of Mama [00:20:50] Mina's family before? In the beginning, before planting [00:20:53] vegetables, they only relied on the husband's income. How much [00:20:56] was that per month back then? My husband [00:20:59] was a driver, so his salary in 1 month was [00:21:02] 150,000 for 1 month. [00:21:05] Yes. 150,000. [00:21:07] Yes. Mama Mina has seven children. One was called [00:21:11] by God, so six are left. [00:21:14] Seven, one was called by God, so six are left. Yes, with [00:21:18] 150,000, how did you manage [00:21:20] this? So back then, when the children were still young, [00:21:24] my husband was a driver. [00:21:27] After the children grew up, there were five [00:21:31] children. I told him to quit [00:21:34] being a driver. Let's find another job. So we [00:21:38] started to plant vegetables and our income far [00:21:42] exceeded the income of a driver. After analyzing [00:21:45] the farming business, the results were much more. So [00:21:49] this family is now prosperous. Yes. There have been many businesses, many [00:21:53] changes. Does domestic violence [00:21:56] decrease or not have an impact? Oh, [00:22:00] domestic violence is almost non-existent now. Almost non-existent. [00:22:04] Yes, now there's no one stressed. Yes, no one comes [00:22:07] anymore. [00:22:10] In the past, uh, to tell a short story, [00:22:14] uh, before [00:22:16] I joined the Indonesian Women's Coalition. [00:22:20] Indonesia, I couldn't handle that [00:22:23] violence. So in [00:22:25] 2013, [00:22:29] I met with a PO from Jakarta, [00:22:32] who told me a lot about the Indonesian Women's Coalition. I [00:22:36] was very interested. So at that time, I [00:22:38] asked if this organization had an RT sister [00:22:42] (a regulation in Indonesian law), he said yes, could I [00:22:46] have it? At that time I read it, and it turned out to be very [00:22:49] good for, what? Women's advocacy [00:22:52] for women's rights. So I was very [00:22:54] interested. In late December [00:22:58] 2012, then in early [00:23:01] January 2013, the Indonesian [00:23:04] Women's Coalition entered Southwest Sumba, specifically in [00:23:07] my village in Wekokor. So [00:23:10] the 30 members of the farmer group immediately signed up [00:23:14] to become members of the Indonesian Women's Coalition. Yes. [00:23:18] So what is the purpose of this organization? Its [00:23:22] purpose is for justice and democracy. So, what [00:23:24] are the women's rights that have been neglected [00:23:27] in Mama Mina's hamlet? [00:23:30] For example, the right to get an opportunity to [00:23:34] be a leader, to speak [00:23:37] as a spokesperson. That wasn't there at that time, right? Yes. Now, I [00:23:41] hear that here, I also read that Mama received support from [00:23:45] the Food and Agriculture Organization, right? [00:23:48] FAO. Yes. What [00:23:51] was given? Tomato seeds and corn [00:23:55] seeds. Okay, are they still being developed and planted now? [00:23:59] Yes, I now have a tomato product, tomato sauce [00:24:02] production, chili sauce. Oh, so, oh, [00:24:06] this is chili powder. This is our [00:24:10] product. Who produced this? We did, in [00:24:13] our organization. What organization is this? Is it the farmer group? Yes, the farmer group. [00:24:17] By God, right? Yes. What kind of beans are these? These are [00:24:20] egg beans, also from this hamlet. Yes, processed by [00:24:24] the mothers. Yes. Okay, where are these [00:24:28] products sold? Uh, usually [00:24:31] we consign them to BUMN in Southwest [00:24:34] Sumba. There are already BUMNs there for product consignment with [00:24:38] PUT. So if now there has [00:24:41] certainly been a change, right, with the income of 4 [00:24:44] million per family per month on average, let's say, [00:24:48] right? Yes. And then there's children's education. I [00:24:52] want to know if with the change in welfare, [00:24:55] children's schooling has changed or not. [00:24:59] It has changed. On average, now children go to school at what level there? [00:25:03] Mothers there are increasingly aware and [00:25:06] sending their children to school, starting from early childhood education, kindergarten, [00:25:09] elementary school, middle school, high school, up to higher education. So there is an awareness that [00:25:13] school is important. So children now, if in the past [00:25:16] maybe mostly elementary and middle school, now it's already [00:25:20] higher than that. Yes, some have gone to college. [00:25:23] Okay, and Mama Mina also runs an early childhood education center, [00:25:27] right? Yes. Early childhood education. [00:25:29] Okay. Where do the [00:25:32] operational costs come from? [00:25:36] Uh, the operational costs come from all [00:25:39] of us mothers who have children attending school there, including the tutors and [00:25:43] me as the manager. So the building is not [00:25:47] owned yet, we are borrowing a house. Okay, [00:25:51] how many students are there? Uh, currently there are 26. [00:25:54] 26. Those who have graduated are around 30.
