Executive Director of the Tabalong Heritage Association, Firman Yusi, said the assistance was allocated for social media classes, Literacy Jambore, and provisions for books to support community activities.

"In South Kalimantan, only 8 communities received this assistance, which includes the Heritage Association," he explained on Sunday (10/27/2024).
