TMMD 126: TNI Strengthens Linmas Character Through Nationalism Training
Malang - As part of the 126th TNI Manunggal Membangun Desa (TMMD) program in Lebakharjo Village, Ampelgading District, Malang Regency, the spirit of nationalism took center stage. This was evident during a technical guidance session aimed at enhancing the capacity of the Village Community Protection Unit (Satlinmas), held at the Lebakharjo Village office, Ampelgading District, Malang Regency, on Saturday (October 11, 2025).
Captain Arh Akhmad Zainuri, Commander of Military Subdistrict 0818/17 Ampelgading, emphasized the vital role of Satlinmas in maintaining unity and public order at the village level.
Speaking to dozens of Satlinmas members, Captain Zainuri stressed that dedication and national awareness must be the foundation of their service.
“Linmas members are part of the reserve component that supports the main component of national defense. Therefore, Linmas must sincerely uphold security without discrimination based on ethnicity, religion, or race,” he stated.
He also reminded participants of the importance of strengthening the moral and mental resilience of Linmas members so they can remain alert in handling various community situations. “Linmas not only safeguards the environment but also preserves unity. That is a real form of defending the nation from the village level,” he added.
The activity, initiated by the 126th TMMD Task Force in collaboration with the Lebakharjo Village Government and the Malang Regency Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP), was also attended by Lebakharjo Village Head Sumarno, Acting Subdistrict Head of Ampelgading Muhammad Ishak, and Head of the Community Protection Division of Malang Regency Satpol PP, Asri Wulandari.
According to Asri Wulandari, this training is part of efforts to strengthen the preparedness of Linmas in safeguarding regional security. “We truly welcome the TMMD collaboration, which not only focuses on physical development but also on character building within the community,” she said.
Through TMMD 126, the TNI strives to foster unity with the people, not only through infrastructure development but also through the cultivation of human resources with a strong national spirit. (*)
