After initially hesitating, Rama enrolled Ridwan in the fully funded residential program and witnessed firsthand the positive impact it had on him. Ridwan, who had previously faced bullying for his inability to read, now had the opportunity to thrive in a safe and supportive environment. Rama expressed her gratitude to President Prabowo Subianto and the program for offering her son a chance at a brighter future. At Sekolah Rakyat, Ridwan not only gained access to education but also regained his self-esteem, giving Rama renewed hope for his success. This powerful story reflects the transformative impact of government initiatives that uplift and empower vulnerable citizens.
