        "content": "<p>REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, Depok \u2014 Pesantren Al-Hamidiyah, Depok, West Java, in\ncollaboration with Junior Chamber International (JCI) Indonesia, JCI\nJayakarta, and JCI Japan, organised the B-Sport Disaster Prevention\nEducation Project for the santri of Pesantren Al-Hamidiyah in Depok, on\nThursday and Friday (21-22 May 2026). The activity combines sport with\ndisaster emergency preparedness training widely known in Japan as\nJapanese-style Evacuation Education. Indonesia was chosen as the\nlocation given its archipelagic status surrounded by a Ring of Fire and\nits frequent natural disasters; yet the affected communities often lack\nadequate preparedness. The Management Board of Yayasan Islam\nAl-Hamidiyah welcomed the delegation from JCI Indonesia, namely Deputy\nNational President, Mr.\u00a0Dicky Cahyadi Nurhalim; National Treasurer,\nMr.\u00a0Aki Pratomodono; SDGs &amp; RISE Chairlady, Mrs.\u00a0Deassy Roosiana,\nT.H.; and 2022 Past National President, Mr.\u00a0Gaudi Agathon. Also present\nwere representatives from the Embassy of Japan, Director of Political\nSection, Mr.\u00a0Tanaka Motoyasu. Also present were members of JCI Japan,\nnamely Chairman, Mr.\u00a0Kento Ogura; Vice-Chairman, Mr.\u00a0Daisuke Himeno,\nGeneral Secretary, Mr.\u00a0Haruo Nakayama; and Committee Members, Mr.\u00a0Takumi\nTominaga, Mr.\u00a0Atsushi Iwasa, and Mr.\u00a0Tomohiro Izawa. Also present were\nmembers of JCI Jayakarta, namely Local President, Mr.\u00a0Kevin Jonathan;\nExecutive Vice President, Mr.\u00a0Isaac Dewanto; and Project Director,\nMr.\u00a0Alvin Artadi. At the opening of the event, the Head of the Caretaker\nof Pesantren Al-Hamidiyah, Prof.\u00a0Dr.\u00a0KH Oman Fathurahman, welcomed the\nguests warmly. \u201cPesantren Al-Hamidiyah is one of the pesantrens that\nalways embraces innovations. Although Pesantren Al-Hamidiyah focuses on\nreligious education, we greatly appreciate this disaster mitigation\ntraining initiative. This is important given Indonesia is a\ndisaster-prone region; in fact, the frequency of earthquakes can be\nhigher than in Japan, while our preparedness must be continually\nenhanced,\u201d he said in a written statement, on Thursday, 21 May 2026.\nOman also expressed gratitude that Pesantren Al-Hamidiyah had been\nchosen as the host for disaster mitigation training directly from Japan.\nLooking ahead, he hoped the activity could be sustained and integrated\nwith science-based mitigation approaches as well as religious and\ncultural approaches. Deassy Roosiana T.H., Chairlady of SDGs &amp; RISE\nJCI Indonesia and initiator of the programme, expressed thanks for the\nopportunity given to JCI Japan and JCI Indonesia to collaborate in this\ntraining activity. She emphasised that the activity is not a ordinary\ntraining, but part of a joint effort to safeguard personal safety and\nthe surrounding environment.<\/p>",
