BOGOR (17 Mei 2022) - Heri Wahyudi, a 39-year-old resident of Bogor Regency, is full of enthusiasm. Losing two legs in 2004 due to an accident did not dampen his motivation to live life like other people in general.

 

Heri and his wife, who is also physically disabled, struggled for a bittersweet life to be independent by trying various types of entrepreneurship, ranging from sewing businesses, and selling vegetables, to grocery stall businesses. Its limitations do not make them ashamed to dare to try.

 

Their perseverance began to pay off when they tried the grocery shop business. With an initial business capital of IDR 300,000, Heri and his wife started their business. Profits are not how they do not make them despair. Slowly the neighbors began to become customers of their shop.

 

The obstacle for Heri and his wife is the difficulty in developing their business because the goods in the stall are not complete and Heri's mobility is limited to shop for these goods.

 

The Ministry of Social Affairs through Galih Pakuan Center Bogor is here to help Heri to develop his business, through the provision of 3-wheel motorbike assistance and assistance for grocery stall entrepreneurs.

 

"Thank you very much for your help, we feel cared for, honestly this 3-wheel motorcycle is my dream to help me in developing my business", said Heri who was met at his home. Heri's spirit can certainly be an inspiration for other disabled people to remain optimistic, that physical limitation will not hinder their opportunities to become reliable and successful business actors.
