Do your best, says Surjadi

JAKARTA (JP): Governor Surjadi Soedirdja urged members of the Jakarta contingent taking part in the 2nd Pertasi Kencana to do their best to promote agriculture, cooperatives and family planning.

The week-long competition is held among provinces once every five years. This year it was to be held in West Nusa Tenggara starting yesterday.

The governor said on Wednesday all contingent members should uphold discipline and Jakarta's good reputation as the capital.

"Don't let us down," Surjadi stressed.

The event is a meeting of farmers, fishermen and national family planning organizers and participants. It is aimed particularly at enhancing their performance and to exchange ideas and experiences. (bas)
