Akhmad Fiteriyadi, CSR Program Foreman for Health, expounded that this program started with social mapping in 2022.

"We found that many people around adaro's operational area have disabilities, including deaf people," he recalled.

This year, adaro helped 15 deaf people spread across several villages, namely Mantuil, Padangin, Barimbun, Kasiau, Kinarum, Masingai, Bilas, and also Mabuun SLB students in Tabalong.

"Our hope is that with this assistance they can hear again and communicate more fluently with the surrounding people," added Fiteriyadi.

For those who have hearing loss from birth, further guidance is needed to ensure they can understand and communicate well in the future.

adaro is committed to improve the quality of life of the community, providing opportunities for them to re-engage in better social ineractions.
