Initially, as many as 50 oxygen cylinders were donated to expedite health recovery of the residents in need. The cylinders will be distributed through several hospitals or health care centers located around the Jakarta MRT line.
PT MRT Jakarta President Director William Sabandar said here Thursday that the supplementary assistance of oxygen cylinders was part of the "Synergy for Jakarta."
Synergy for Jakarta is a collaboration program initiated by PT MRT Jakarta in cooperation with WeCare.id, which is one of the start-up partners of the MRTJ Accel 2021 Program.
"In future, we will strive to procure oxygen cylinders to increase availability by collaborating with the public and our business partners," Sabandar remarked.
Meanwhile, CEO of WeCare.id Gigih Septianto is sanguine that the "Synergy For Jakarta" Program with PT MRT Jakarta would pave the way for more participation and usher in collaboration opportunities from all sections of society to work together to help Indonesia tide over the pandemic.
