Field Stories Series #4

Kel. Kenanga, Selasa, 16 Juni 2020

The formation of the Kenanga Urban Village team, Kota Tangerang was different from other kelurahan. The complexity of the bureaucracy makes us have to keep looking for opportunities so that the program can run in Tangerang City. One opportunity was through Mas Faik when we had an audience at the Bakesbangpol office, Tangerang City. Mas Faik is a staff of Bakesbangpol at the Gempol District level. After discussing, we also scheduled a meeting for the formation of the Kenanga Village SITI team and carried out aid distribution activities for people affected by Covid 19. Notification to the Lurah was carried out by Mrs. Sri Handayani by telephone due to conditions that were not yet possible to directly.

On May 20, 2020, Mrs. Nday (Sri Handayani) and I came to see the Lurah. But suddenly the Lurah had to go to the District office so the meeting was canceled. Several times I contacted the village head via WA and telephone but it was not answered. Until finally Mrs. Nday and I came to the village on June 16 without making an appointment. At 6:00 am I left home hoping to arrive at the Kelurahan office and meet the Head of the Village before he left the office. But unfortunately, when he arrived, the village head had already left and none of his staff knew where he was going.
