“Until Sunday, November 27, when we visited Nagrak Village Cianjur, there have been more than 200 smaller aftershocks. However, when we visited, we didn’t feel the earthquake,” said Dr. Gadis.
The donations were carried in a box truck containing food, blankets, diapers, toiletries, medicines, and clothes. The donations were collected from all UNAIR academicians.

Therefore, Dr. Gadis requested all communities to donate to Cianjur earthquake victims, which can be done through UNAIR Center for Social Funding Management (PUSPAS).
