Pontianak, West Kalimantan – West Kalimantan Governor Sutarmidji has actually asked companies dealing with people living with disabilities to assist in the collection of data on the disabled population so that they can be registered for population administration (adminduk) services.
” I saw that a number of individuals did not come today, even though I have been awaiting them,” he said throughout a 2022 International Day of Persons with Disabilities activity here on Saturday.
” This suggests that company supervisors ought to understand handicapped members by name and by address. They have to be signed up so that, whenever there are events from the workplace, it will be easier,” he explained.
Head of the Indonesian Individuals with Disabilities National Commission, Dante Rigmalia, stated that the commission will make every effort to make sure that all people with impairments are signed up for adminduk.
” Worrying the information collection, we motivate local governments to conduct direct visits so that individuals with impairments can be registered within adminduk,” he notified.
” If they are signed up, development programs can be planned based upon existing data collection,” he included.

The involvement of people with specials needs in advancement procedures is still far from ideal, hence, it is one of the aspects that need to be motivated, he stated.
” They have the exact same rights to be associated with every development procedure, and it will be useful for the rights of individuals with specials needs,” he added.
The stigma against individuals with specials needs remains high, which is shown by the truth that education access for individuals with impairments is not yet optimum, Rigmalia highlighted.
Just 30 percent of people with specials needs have actually graduated from main school and 2.8 percent have graduated from university.
This implies there are still many who can not yet go to school, which has actually postured a problem in optimizing their activities, he notified.
” The majority of moms and dads hide people with impairments in their house,” he kept in mind.
” In reality, these parents do not conduct data collection on them, that made their health even worse given that they do not have NIK (identity card numbers) for health access,” he added.
