Prof. Henry Indraguna inaugurated as BAPERA Deputy Chairperson and donates 20 thousand orphans

Barisan Pemuda Nusantara (the Nusantara Youth Front) as an organization known for its nationalism and patriotism, has a vision to build the quality of youth based on the values of Pancasila (Indonesia’s national philosophy).

 

Jakarta (Indonesia Window) – Indonesia’s national Bung Karno sports stadium (locally known as its abbreviation GBK) was bustling when the Central Leadership Council of Barisan Pemuda Nusantara (Bapera/the Nusantara Youth Front) distributed donation packages to 20 thousand orphans.

The number of orphans donated this time was different from the usual one of 10 thousand children during Ramadan (the Muslim fasting month).

The event was one of the markers of the inauguration of the Central Leadership Council of management of Bapera (Barisan Pemuda Nusantara) led by Fahd El Fouz A Rafiq. This new management works for the 2025-2030 period.

The famous lawyer, Prof. Dr. Henry Indraguna, was entrusted with the responsibility as Deputy Chairperson of the Central Leadership Council of Bapera.

Prof. Henry is considered to have the capacity, capability and loyalty to the leadership and organization. From his track record as a practitioner and politician of Golkar (one of Indonesia’s noted political party), it is a plus that he can provide a booster for this youth organization to shine and succeed.

The presence of Prof. Henry is expected to contribute to the nation and state, especially in supporting Asta Cita program of Indonesia’s President Prabowo Subianto.

Asta Cita means eight programs launched by Indonesia’s current government as a form of struggle to realize an advanced and prosperous Indonesia.

In the activity of providing assistance to 20 thousand orphans, Prof. Henry said that the provision of this assistance aims to restore the smiles and laughter and optimism of the orphans to face the future.

“This is just the beginning in order to prosper Ramadan. There is a mission and vision that we want to entrust to the youth as future leaders of the nation. We want the youth to have a heart and empathy for the people and dare to fight for thoughts and ideas about the economy that lead to the welfare of the people,” Prof. Dr. Henry told suarakarya.id after attending the inauguration procession of the Deputy Chairperson of the Central Leadership Council of Bapera in Jakarta, Tuesday (March 18).

Prof. Henry, who was once a member of the Expert Team of the Presidential Advisory Council, explained that Bapera, as an organization known for its nationalism and patriotism, has a vision to build the quality of youth based on the values ​​of Pancasila and the ideals of the 1945 Proclamation and to strengthen the identity of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.

Pancasila is the foundation of the state and the philosophy of Indonesia which consists of five principles – Belief in God Almighty, Humanity, Unity, Democracy and Social Justice.

The Expert Advisor to the Research and Development Center of the Golka Party emphasized that Bapera supports President Prabowo Subianto’s Asta Cita program in practicing Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution. One form of support is a work program that is in line with the government’s program.

“However, Bapera will also remain a critical partner, supporting what is good, but not keeping quiet if we see something wrong. It’s like we would praise without adoring, and criticize without hating,” said the Deputy Chairperson of the Advisory Board of the Indonesian Advocates Congress (KAI).

 

 

Equality of Business Opportunities

On that occasion, the General Chairperson of the Central Leadership Council of Bapera, Fahd El Fouz A Rafiq said, right on 18 Ramadhan 1446 Hijri or March 18, the Central Leadership Council of Bapera has whitened capital Jakarta again with the light of goodness and continued with the inauguration attended by all Bapera cadres across Indonesia.

“This activity is part of the organization’s big mission to not only embrace the younger generation, but also to pay more attention to those who are less fortunate. We want Jakarta to be whiter, cleaner and help all forms of difficulties that befall orphans. We are here to provide new hope and enthusiasm for them,” Fahd said.

The former General Chairperson of the Central Leadership Council of KNPI (the Indonesian National Youth Committee) emphasized that Bapera would be more active in social community activities and economic advocacy.

He added that Bapera is trying to fill the empty space faced by society by presenting equality of business opportunities.

“We want young people to act not only about food, but also to fill their minds so that creativity grows,” Fath remarked.

The Head of the Golkar’s Mass Relations Division also underscored that the inauguration of the management this time is part of the organization’s big mission to provide greater attention to those who are less fortunate.

“We are here to provide new hope and enthusiasm for these orphans to continue to be optimistic in welcoming a brighter future,” said the son of the legendary Indonesian singer, the late A Rafiq.

Fath also reminded Indonesian youth of the impact of globalization, namely the erosion of youth nationalism due to various unstoppable information.

“Many young people are proud of the culture of other countries and ignore their own cultural wealth. So Bapera wants to restore the nation’s identity to the younger generation to love and be proud of the great Indonesian nation that is rich in natural resources,” Fath noted.
