"Let us interpret this life to continue to live and work, so we have to be able to maintain health. Moreover, the elderly who are full of life experience still need ideas and thoughts in regional development to move forward," said the Bantul Regent in his written speech.

Mr. Heru representing the Bantul Regent at the event was pleased to hand over a memento of the elderly t-shirt to Darsono, the Head of Welfare of Triharjo Pandak Village representing the Village Heads in Bantul Regency, and to Dr. Anugrah representing health practitioners as Coordinator of health assistance for the elderly in Bantul Regency.
