Social affairs office revived

KENDARI, Southeast Sulawesi: The social affairs office in Southeast Sulawesi province will soon be revived after being merged with the health office last March.

Provincial Secretary Yokoyama Sinapoy said here on Friday that the revival was meant to ensure that more attention would be paid to the increasing number of social problems in the province.

The draft of the bylaw on the revival of the social affairs office had been submitted to the provincial legislative council, Sinapoy said.

"The deliberation of the bylaw is expected to take place before December so that funding for social affairs activities can be allocated soon," he said. --Antara
