Government assistance which was considered slow made HPI Yogyakarta administrators take the initiative to provide their own assistance to active HPI members. Management has donated basic food assistance in the form of rice, cooking oil, eggs and sugar to 405 active HPI members

The assistance funds were obtained from the cash funds of the HPI DIY Regional Management Council (DPD). "The funds we have collected from membership dues over the years are what we use," he said. Now he hopes that the government will immediately be moved by thinking about the fate of the tour guides, which the government says are the spearheads of Indonesian tourism.
