Life Must Go On, Whatever The Risks Are
One source of income from residents who live near the coast is from fishing. they lived this profession from generation to generation until now. by capitalizing a small boat, they risk their daily lives to supplement household needs. Aceh Province is one of the provinces in the western tip of Indonesia and is known as one of the provinces that is privileged among other provinces. the granting of special status for the province of Aceh is due to several factors. Among them is because the province of Aceh was once a conflict zone and an area of military operation. Not only that, the province of Aceh also experienced a devastating earthquake and tsunami that swallowed hundreds of thousands of residents. On this basis the central government provides some facilities for the province of Aceh, especially in terms of regional financial management. Likewise in agriculture, plantations, marine and education and local customs
Dike facility to anticipate high tide
With this facility, fishermen and residents who live along the coast will no longer be afraid of the coming tide. Especially in the last few days it rained. The construction of this embankment facility is the cooperation of the central and regional governments, also with the assistance of several Asian and European countries. This embankment facility was built in one of the areas worst affected by the tsunami a few years ago. With this facility, the fishermen and residents who live along the coast feel comfortable in looking for their daily needs
Some fishing boats look freely in and out of the landing site. Even in high tide conditions, some of them still go out to sea to meet household needs. What will be trouble tomorrow, let it be tomorrow. We live for today, don't let our lives today be filled only with worry about what will happen tomorrow. We never know what will surely happen tomorrow, that's one of the answers I got from a fisherman
