"The short video tells the activities of the young generation in Watugedug Hamlet, Guwosari Village, Bantul, in assisting humanitarian service activities from assisting the implementation of the elderly posyandu to doing homecare," said Titis.

Concern, respect and love for the elderly is a reflection of the behavior that must continue to be maintained by the nation and deserve to be an example of anyone, especially during this pandemic. Let us sow as much goodness as possible by serving parents and the elderly as a concrete manifestation of an attitude of social care. (JF/Trans: KS)
