Navigating the Sea and Extreme Paths, DNR Deliver Perum BULOG Rice Social Assistance in North Sulawesi

Mon, 09 Aug 2021

The community is currently facing the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak which has an impact on its daily survival activities. Of course, with the pandemic, the needs of the community are also slightly disrupted and this is another challenge faced during the pandemic. In this case, Perum BULOG in collaboration with DNR distributed rice social assistance from the Ministry of Social Affairs.

Along with this problem, Perum BULOG distributes rice social assistance to the community in order to meet the basic needs of the community every day. This rice social assistance is assistance provided by the Ministry of Social Affairs to Beneficiary Families (KPM) throughout Indonesia who are affected by the implementation of PPKM at this time.

Of the areas that distribute this social assistance, North Sulawesi is one of the areas that also distributes this assistance to people in need.

In this case, Perum BULOG collaborates with DNR Corporation through its business unit, DNR Logistics, to distribute the rice social assistance to the community. On this occasion, DNR Logistics deployed its fleet in order to deliver the rice aid directly to the community quickly and safely.

Please note that before distributing the rice social assistance to the community, Perum BULOG will always ensure that the rice to be distributed is in good condition, guaranteed, and also suitable for consumption by the community.

Passing Extreme Routes and the Sea

Especially for the North Sulawesi area, the distribution of rice social assistance from Perum BULOG to KPM itself faces its own challenges in the distribution process. One of the challenges faced is the extreme natural landscape faced by DNR Logistics in distributing the aid.

For example, when distributing aid in Kolingangaan Village in Bilalang District, Bolang Mongondow Regency, North Sulawesi. DNR Logistics faced the challenge of a fairly extreme route, namely unpaved and muddy roads, which required a special strategy in its journey.

To overcome this, DNR Logistics used special vehicles, namely offroad cars, so that the rice social assistance from Perum BULOG could be delivered properly to the people in need on August 3, 2021. Requiring a long travel time and requiring its own challenges, the efforts made by DNR Logistics can run smoothly so that the community can get rice social assistance properly.

The challenge of extreme routes in the delivery of rice social assistance was also found in Sinsingon Village in East Passi District, Bolang Mongondow Regency, North Sulawesi. On this distribution occasion, the team from DNR Logistics used a kaleros motorbike as transportation in the process of distributing the aid to the community which was carried out on August 5, 2021. Motor kalero itself is a typical vehicle by the surrounding community to transport various goods to their destination.

Apart from by land, DNR Logistics also distributes rice social assistance by sea using speedboats. This was done when distributing aid to Mantehage Island, North Sulawesi on August 2, 2021. Through the swift sea waves, the rice aid from Perum BULOG can be distributed in good condition.

With these various obstacles, DNR Logistics' commitment in delivering rice social assistance from Perum BULOG to KPM that has been recorded by the Ministry of Social Affairs has never been extinguished and is always eager to distribute the assistance so that it can be received directly by the community.

The Community Feels Helped by Rice Social Assistance

Despite going through various obstacles in the distribution process, the community seemed quite enthusiastic and happy through the rice social assistance they received. The community feels grateful for the rice assistance they received so that they can fulfill all their basic needs every day during a pandemic outbreak like today.

In addition, the community also hopes that the rice social assistance from the Ministry of Social Affairs and Perum BULOG which is distributed by DNR can be an important part in the process of fulfilling the basic needs of the community in their daily activities together with other family members.

Please note that North Sulawesi is one of 15 provinces in Indonesia where DNR Logistics has the trust to distribute rice social assistance for the PKH program from the Ministry of Social Affairs where the rice comes from Perum BULOG.

This is the second time DNR has won the trust to distribute rice social assistance from Perum BULOG and the Ministry of Social Affairs. Because in 2020, DNR also became a transporter in distributing the rice social assistance in the same 15 provinces as this year.

Of course, in this case, DNR is always committed to always succeeding government programs in meeting the needs of the community through an integrated and modern distribution network to answer increasingly diverse challenges in the future.
