The celebration of the 12th Anniversary of West Muna Regency was not just filled with entertainment stages and sports activities. This momentum was also used to bring various public services closer to the community, one of which was education on the importance of gold investment from an early age.
In the midst of the festivities of the "Fun Run Mubar Sehat" agenda held at the Wamelai Football Field, Lawa District, PT Pegadaian (Persero) Raha Branch UPC Tongkuno was present to open a service booth. In addition to receiving financial investment socialization, residents crowding the location could also access free health checks, activation of Digital Population Identity (IKD), and participate in a blood donation drive.
On this occasion, Pegadaian provided direct guidance to residents on how to use the digital application "Tring by Pegadaian". Through this application, the public can easily open a gold savings account, monitor price movements in real-time, and learn about long-term investment projections. As a token of appreciation, residents who downloaded the application and opened a gold savings account on the spot immediately received a basic food package in the form of sugar.
The Head of PT Pegadaian Raha Branch UPC Tongkuno, Ershad Azhar Rizky, explained that the current fluctuations in gold prices are actually a golden opportunity for the public to start saving. He stated that the correction in the price of the precious metal is the best time to buy for long-term profit.
According to Ershad, based on historical price movement data over the last five to ten years, the value of gold has consistently shown an upward trend year after year. Through the digitalization of services, people can now monitor market movements more flexibly and transparently, and safely conduct transactions at any time.
