The government of Kotabaru, South Kalimantan, has received an oxygen generator as assistance from the Ministry of Industry to support the local government in improving public health.

"Kotabaru government expresses its gratitude for the assistance provided by the Ministry of Industry," said the Kotabaru Regional Secretary H Said Akhmad in a press statement, Tuesday.

He noted that the local government was very grateful because the proposal to have an oxygen generator was approved by the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Health for handling COVID-19.

Kotabaru Hospital was considered feasible and in South Kalimantan, only Kotabaru has received this assistance. "Of course this is a form of the government attention to the community," he said.

Meanwhile, a representative from the Ministry of Industry Rian Adhi Saputra said that the oxygen generator was provided for nine regions in Indonesia, one of which was Kotabaru.

"This assistance is provided for hospitals that do not yet have oxygen generators. We have coordinated with the Ministry of Health. Training will be carried out for the operation. It can be used as soon as possible because this tool will be able to produce oxygen with a capacity of 500 liters per minute," he said.
