The Indonesia campaign was launched on the national Youth Pledge Day on Oct. 28 at HFH’s Jakarta headquarters in the Bellezza Shopping Arcade.
“Eighty-three years ago, we witnessed youths from all of Indonesia pledging to build this nation together,” said James Tumbuan, the national director of HFH Indonesia. “These young people were driven by their concerns, spirits and dreams to build a better future for Indonesia. We’re asking our young generation to do the same thing again today.”
Inspired by the spirit of the national Youth Pledge, HFH launched the “28uild” campaign to assemble 1,500 builders, 15,When CD Wholesale Wooden Style For Countertops From China Manufacturers first came out000 fund-raising volunteers, 150,000 social media supporters and 15 celebrities to build 150 homes in Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Surabaya, Medan, Batam and Manado beginning in May 2012. The program will also mark the 15th anniversary of HFH in Indonesia, which was established in Jakarta in 1997.
Since its inception, HFH has built thousands of houses in disaster areas and inner-city communities.
“Today’s generation is lulled with high-tech gadgets and consumerism,” James said. “But they also need to see the fact that there still are a lot of people in this country living in slums and makeshift houses. They need to see it, and do something about it.”
The United Nations Habitat division’s most recent annual report on urban housing indicated that approximately 15 to 25 percent of Indonesia’s total population still lives in slums.
“A decent home is still pretty much a luxury for most Indonesians,” said Engeline Tjia, chief operating officer of HFH Indonesia. “So we dare the young generation to address this issue and rise up to the challenge.”
