Sumedang – Minister of Defense (Menhan) Prabowo Subianto admitted to being amazed when he saw 60,000 people, mostly farmers and herders, attending the event ‘Agricultural Extention And Farmer and Participative Food Estate Development in West Java Province to Support the Increase in National Rice and Corn Production’ in Sumedang, on Tuesday (30/1). This event was organized by the Ministry of Agriculture in collaboration with the Ministry of Defense.

“Today is extraordinary, I don’t think there have been 60,000 people in one tent before,” he said.

Prabowo then congratulated the farmers for carrying out a very noble task, which is to ensure food sustainability.

“Congratulations to the large agricultural family, you are carrying out a very noble mission,” he said.

He also assessed that this noble task is the same as defending the country. Because, food shortages have become a global threat faced by many countries.

“All of your agricultural workers, you are aware, we soldiers used to fight. Now the battle is to secure the nation from food shortages,” he added.

Therefore, he called farmers, herders, and fishermen true patriots who have contributed to the homeland. Prabowo also expressed optimism that Indonesia can become a strong and advanced country.

“I have mentioned in various forums that I have great respect for farmers, herders, fishermen, and agricultural laborers. You are true patriots. You are unsung heroes. You are the ones who produce food for all the people of Indonesia,” he said.

“Today I am more enthusiastic, today, I am more confident, Indonesia is strong, Indonesia is advanced. God willing, we will eradicate poverty from the land of Indonesia,” he concluded. (SENOPATI)
