TMMD 130 Malang: Not Only Building Roads, But Also Getting Close to Farmers
Published
The 130th Manunggal Membangun Desa (TMMD) program in Malang Regency, East Java, has drawn the attention of the local community. The program focuses not only on physical development, such as repairing village roads, but also on building close relationships with residents, especially farmers.
TMMD is a regular activity carried out by the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) together with local governments and village residents. In this activity, soldiers work alongside the community to repair the infrastructure the village needs. Better roads are expected to help farmers transport their harvests more easily and quickly.
Beyond physical work, the closeness between soldiers and farmers is also an important part of this program. Direct interaction in the field allows residents to convey their needs and problems. In this way, the program is expected to be more precisely targeted and in line with the needs of the community.
The TMMD 130 activity in Malang shows that village development is not measured only by physical results. Good relations with residents are also an important factor so that the program's benefits can be felt sustainably by village communities.
