Bogor — Amid the joyful celebration of National Education Day 2025, one moment stood out for a mother named Santi.

She was there not only as a parent but as a living witness to change. The humble school where she once studied has now been transformed into a more dignified and inspiring learning environment, thanks to the Accelerated High-Impact Results Program (PHTC) launched by President Prabowo Subianto.

“Alhamdulillah… I’m so happy and touched. Now my child’s school has received support from the President. Thank you so much, Mr. Prabowo, for helping us,” Santi said with teary eyes after witnessing the PHTC launch firsthand at SDN Cimahpar 5 in Bogor on Thursday (May 2).

Santi is an alumna of SDN Cimahpar 5. She recalled the days when classrooms and facilities were modest and limited. Now, as her daughter, Lilis Nurjanah, studies in grade 3B, she sees real transformation: more comfortable classrooms, better teacher facilities, and a cleaner, more pleasant learning environment.

“Back then, everything was bare minimum. Now, the classrooms are beautiful. I feel at ease sending my daughter here,” she said.

What’s more, Lilis now also benefits from the government’s Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG). The healthy lunches do more than fill young stomachs—they bring happiness to families back home.

“Sometimes Lilis brings home leftovers for her little sibling. She says, ‘Mom, I got this at school today.’ I’m just so grateful. Thank you, Mr. Prabowo,” Santi said, her voice trembling.

In this emotional moment, Santi and her daughter shared a heartfelt message for the President.

“May you live a long life, stay healthy, and continue to be a great leader for Indonesia. Thank you so much, Mr. President!”
