Tajur Halang, a little village at the slope of Gunung Salak,is a community project with the intention to develop this village in different kind of ways,so the profit of the improvement will benefit all the inhabitants of the village.
The first project is already done, the clean water project with the help of LDSC, a church from the USA. After than we provided the whole village with garbage bins. Via a Matching Grant with our sister club in Utah we could provide the villagers with a banana planting project, followed by the production of emping (ching made of Gnetum gnemon). Further we found out via the medical doctor in the village,Dr. Ali, that ca. 60% of the villagers are infected with one or another form of TBC. There is already a WHO program in the form of medication but one of the causes is that the villagers kept the goats against the houses, so all the windows and doors were always closed; the lack of concrete or ceramic floors creates a high humidity in the houses. In combination with other factors this was one of the important things to eliminate. The Werk group ’72, settled in Jakarta, provided the money for 40 stalls and the Rotary Club Bogor provided 350 meters linear fence. We hope that by this way the villagers will open their windows and doors and reduce the occurrence of TBC in this village. We have already showed the villagers Kampung Naga as a good example how to implement this knowledge in their own village. With the help of the Rotary Club Dubai and the Rotary Club Bogor, in 2001/2002, we provided villagers with a micro credit. We lend them a certain amount of money and over a period of two years the participants, so it circulates continually in this village. Nowadays there are 96 farmers growing 83 types of ornamental plants in that area with the training provided and supervised by our senior member, Rtn. Dr. Benny Tjia. Their products have been delivered continuously over Bogor city through the extended hands of around 72 people who bought the plants from the farmers. With the improvement of this village it will have an “oil on water” effect to the other villages around them.
