The program, which aims to break the chain of COVID-19 distribution, especially in BanjarDistrict, launched symbolically by the Banjar Police Chief AKBP Andri Koko Prabowo in Kertak Hanyar Village.

Regional Secretary of Banjar M Hilman welcomed the launch. "Kampung Tangguh Banua has become a pilot village to mobilize and make people aware in the fight, overcome and break the chain of COVID-19 spread," he said.

AKBP Andri Koko Prabowo said, the Banjar Police took the initiative to form Kampung Tangguh Banua in preventing the spread of COVID-19 from the lowest level.
