On Thursday, February 27, 2025, in celebration of the upcoming Ramadan, the Annas Sejahtera Charity Foundation (Yayasan Annas) of Tanjung Priok distributed food packages to hundreds of retired dock workers (TKBM) from Tanjung Priok Port. The initiative aims to support those in need as they prepare for the holy month of fasting.
The distribution, which is carried out periodically, took place at the Hubbittaqwa Semper Mosque in North Jakarta. A total of 390 food packages were distributed, 223 packages to former TKBM members in the UKA Tugu Semper Complex and 65 packages to retired dock workers living in the Cilincing Flats.
The Chairman of the Annas Sejahtera Foundation, H. Juswandi Kristanto, through Deputy Chairman H. Syukri Siregar, expressed hope that this aid would ease the burdens faced by former TKBM members and their families, especially during this blessed month.
“We ask for your prayers that we can continue this program in the future and that our donors are blessed with prosperity in their businesses,” said Syukri Siregar.
The Annas Foundation was established by a group of business leaders in the Tanjung Priok Port sector, including stevedores, logistics professionals, and other industry practitioners. The charity’s funds come from donations by these business leaders in the Priok Port community.
Among those present at the aid distribution were Aris Hartoyo, General Chairman of ISAA, Capt. Suwondo, Chairperson of APBMI Jakarta, Asep Slamet, Chairperson of the TKBM Port Priok Cooperative, H. Shodik Harjono (Annas Foundation Management), and other key figures involved in the effort.
