According to Amir Syam, Ulu Wolo residents should be proud of the construction of the supporting Puskesmas with inpatient standards from Ceria’s PPM / CSR Program funds, so that the community, especially Ulu Wolo and its surroundings, will not have to go far if they have to seek health treatment and be hospitalized.

This is what is being carried out today, the groundbreaking, also an implementation of the government’s commitment.
