Rantau, S Kalimantan (ANTARA) - The presence of the 111th TMMD in Salam Babaris Sub-district, Tapin District, has an impact on increasing the business of traders during the pandemic.
"Many of members of TNI and workers, such as truck drivers, stopped by to shop while resting. Usually, only residents here stopped by and I earned 200 thousand a day. Now it could reach one million," said Lasmi (32), a trader in Suato Lama Village.
Darsono, a kiosk owner at the TMMD location, shared the same thing. Buyers have increased since the arrival of hundreds of soldiers for the 111th TNI Integrated Village Development (TMMD).
"Alhamdulillah (Thank God) a lot of people shop here," he said.
