The South Kalimantan region recorded several significant developments on Wednesday (8/7/2026), covering the economic sector, social welfare, and the improvement of public service quality. One of the main highlights came from Tabalong Regency, where PT Saptaindra Sejati (SIS) reaffirmed its commitment to prioritizing local labor through the Oxygen Education and Training (OPP) program.
The health sector also showed meaningful progress for people in remote areas. Residents in the Paminggir area now enjoy easier accessibility to eye healthcare services, representing a crucial step toward equalizing medical facilities in the region.
Meanwhile, dynamics at the city and regency levels continue to unfold. The Banjarbaru City Government is striving to boost the local economy by capitalizing on the World Cup momentum as a platform for MSME development. In the public service sector, Pandawan Public Health Center (Puskesmas) in Hulu Sungai Tengah (HST) actively held a Public Consultation Forum (FKP) to ensure better service standards for the community.
Additionally, strengthening village-level institutional capacity was also a focus through comparative study activities conducted by two integrated health posts (Posyandu) from Halong District to Gambah Luar Village, Hulu Sungai Selatan (HSS) Regency. These various initiatives are expected to bring a lasting positive impact on social welfare development in South Kalimantan.
