“Then KUR debts, because this is a natural situation, we will write off. So farmers don’t worry about not being able to pay back the debt, because this is not negligence, but a forced situation,” said Prabowo, Sunday (7/12).

“We will rehabilitate the damaged rice fields and have reported them to me. Farmers don’t need to worry. If their fields are damaged, we will help repair them,” he said.
Prabowo also ensured that food supplies would continue to be brought to Aceh with the help of all agencies.
