JAKARTA (JP): The Capital Market Society of Indonesia has
donated food and used clothing to 7,000 needy residents of five
subdistricts in the city in conjunction with the 21st anniversary
of the capital market's reactivation.

The donation was handed over by Jusuf Anwar, chairman of the
Capital Market Supervisory Agency (Bapepam), to residents of
Kalibaru, Kampung Tengah, Cilincing, Cengkareng Timur and Kedaung
subdistricts Saturday.

"Through such a donation, we hope that the city residents can
also feel the existence of the capital market," Jusuf said in the

A similar activity is scheduled to be held in Yogyakarta and
Semarang on Sept. 4 and Sept. 5 respectively.

The organizing committee also held blood donations and games
