In his closing remarks, Kuswanto as KASI Management said,

“I would like to thank YIIM and INSIGHT for being willing to hold training which I feel is the most appropriate training to be carried out here. Because the training participants are very serious about carrying out their training. There are various kinds of training such as cooking, sewing, salons, which is very extraordinary. I hope that in the future this training can be useful for all mothers for provisions outside and hopefully there will be sustainable training.”

Then Isnaeni Setiawan as the CSR coordinator of PT Insight Investments Management (INSIGHT) said in his speech that, “The hope is that this training can ideally be sustainable, just like Insight which manages its mutual funds and there is an allocation of CSR funds to be given to programs like this. We hope that after this activity is finished, YIIM and I will re-evaluate which ones are good, which ones we will continue and which ones we will not continue.”

And finally, in his closing remarks, Chrisbiantoro as Chair of YIIM stated, “Congratulations once again to these extraordinary participants. We hope that what the participants have gained will be useful. This knowledge will be lost if it is not developed. We hope that after the training period in the detention center can be developed and put into practice in the community. For those who are still here, don’t be discouraged. Start your days being productive. When you leave here, we will turn this knowledge into individuals who are useful for the community, family and ourselves. The image of the inmates is also get better.”

This program is also part of YIIM and INSIGHT’s commitment to support the government’s program to create productive detention centers and be able to equip inmates with various skills. It is hoped that this program can inspire broader elements who care about economic and social empowerment in detention centers so that they can break the chain of potential crime in criminal acts.
