Bireuen Regent Provides Assistance to 200 Orphans Using Personal Salary.

The Regent of Bireuen Regency, Mukhlis, distributed assistance to 200 orphans on Tuesday (March 3, 2026).

The assistance was sourced from the Regent's personal salary for the past six months, which he intentionally withheld. The distribution took place during a fast-breaking event at the Bireuen Regent's Hall.

The event was also attended by the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia and the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia, who witnessed the Bireuen Regency Government's social commitment to the welfare of orphans.

Mursyidin, Protocol and Communications Staff (Prokopim) of the Bireuen Regency Secretariat, stated that this step represents a concrete manifestation of the humanitarian commitment the Regent has expressed since his first day in office.

"This time, the compensation funds come entirely from the Regent's personal salary, which has not been collected for the past six months," he said.

He added that the assistance distribution is the second phase of a series of personal social programs for the Regent of Bireuen.

The presence of the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia at the event added to the solemn atmosphere of the breaking of the fast together and also emphasized the central government's support for the regional government's efforts to address the welfare of orphans in Bireuen Regency.
