Residents of Kotawaringin Timur Regency (Kotim), Central Kalimantan,\nare set to receive a community aid animal\u2014a one-ton Limousin cow named\n\u2018Rambo\u2019\u2014donated by President of the Republic of Indonesia, Prabowo\nSubianto, ahead of Eid al-Adha 1447 AH. The cow, weighing almost a\ntonne, will be delivered to the Islamic Center Sampit.<\/p>\n
The owner of a local farm in Sampit, Syarif, said that this year he\nwas once again trusted by the presidential administration to supply the\nbest sacrificial animal for the community. The distribution forms part\nof President Prabowo Subianto\u2019s community aid programme in Kalimantan\nTengah.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlhamdulillah, this is the second year I have been entrusted to\nsupply a cow for the President of the Republic of Indonesia. For Eid\nal-Adha this year, the cow from Mr President Prabowo Subianto is planned\nto be channelled to Masjid Islamic Center Sampit,\u201d Syarif said in Sampit\non Thursday (21 May 2026).<\/p>\n
Syarif explained that the standards set by the President\u2019s government\nremain very strict, particularly regarding weight and animal health.\nThis was evident from the selection process in neighbouring Seruyan,\nwhere the process had to be repeated because the animals did not meet\nthe presidential criteria.<\/p>\n
\u201cAccording to reports, the cow in Pembuang Hulu (Seruyan) had not\nreached the ideal weight above 900 kilograms as a mandatory condition\nfor a cow from the President, so we were asked to provide a replacement\nanimal. This shows that Mr President Prabowo cares greatly about the\nquality of the aid provided to the community,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The \u2018Rambo\u2019 cow selected is a Limousin with a sturdy frame and high\ntonnage. Among farmers, premium quality cattle have market values in\nRupiah of around Rp85 million to Rp90 million.<\/p>\n
Head of the Livestock and Animal Health Section of the Kotim\nAgriculture and Food Security Agency, Endrayatno, confirmed that the\nPresident\u2019s cow for Kotim this year comprises one animal and has\nundergone very strict health screening.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is the standard from Mr President: its health status, complete\nvaccination, and clinical checks up to laboratory testing. We must\nensure that this cow is truly fit and healthy before it is handed over\nto the Eid al-Adha committee at Wahyu Al-Hadi Mosque,\u201d Endrayatno\nsaid.<\/p>\n
He also added that choosing a locally bred (F1\/F2) cow is a prudent\nmove because such animals are more adaptable to tropical climates and\nhave a calmer temperament than pure imported cattle, making the\nslaughter process easier later. (Ant\/I-1)<\/p>\n
