💰 Ongoing Donation

I am still accepting donations. Thousands of flood and landslide survivors still urgently need attention and support, with conditions remaining extremely dire. The government response has been very slow, with complex bureaucracy and alleged disaster fund corruption at the central level. Local media outlets have reported on these issues.

Expenditure Report for Donation Distribution – Phase 3 (Aceh Tamiang)

Total Expenses: IDR 9,130,000 (≈ USD 545–547)

Location:
Matang Rayeuk Village, Bendahara Subdistrict, Aceh Tamiang Regency, Aceh Province, Indonesia

Form of Donation:
Material supplies and direct distribution to victims of the flash flood disaster.

Donation Package Recipient:
Zakaria Adnan, one of the flood victims.

Note:
Zakaria will distribute the donated items to other victims in need. We did not distribute the aid directly to all victims to avoid chaos or conflict, as the donated items were limited.

Types of Donations:
- Cleaning equipment to help clean homes covered in mud after the flood.
- Household necessities (for women).

Detailed purchase prices of items and other expenses incurred during the trip are shown in the attached images.

***

My team and I (a total of 5 people) traveled from Banda Aceh to Aceh Tamiang by car, which took approximately 9–10 hours one way. The round trip took around 18–20 hours.

The donation distribution to Aceh Tamiang took 3 days. We stayed overnight in Langsa before continuing the journey to Aceh Tamiang. After completing the distribution, we returned directly from Aceh Tamiang to Banda Aceh.

PoW: Delivering Aid to Flood Victims in Aceh Tamiang (Phase 03)

My team and I (a total of five people) distributed equipment to help clean mud left behind by the floods to victims affected by the ecological disaster. The cleaning tools included shovels, hoes, and boots.

In addition to cleaning equipment, we also distributed household necessities for evacuees, such as sarongs, mosquito nets, prayer mats, and mukenas.

I purchased 15 units of each item, adjusted to the amount of donations received. The donations were distributed in Matang Teupah Village, Bendahara Subdistrict, Aceh Tamiang Regency, Aceh, Indonesia.

The aid was received directly by one of the affected victims named Zakaria Adnan, whom I call Jack. He shared many painful experiences from when the disaster happened.

“At first, the floodwater reached our knees, but the rain didn’t stop for days. Before the water submerged our house, I evacuated first, bringing my wife and children to higher ground.”

“Unfortunately, there was no place left that wasn’t flooded, because all the land was submerged. When we slept, the ground beneath us was water. After a week, the water receded, and I returned home to find my house and everything inside covered in mud.”

“During the flood, there was a corpse floating right in front of me. The strong current made it impossible for me to evacuate it. It was heartbreaking—we ate whatever the water carried to us, and we lived 28 days without electricity.”

I entrusted the aid to Jack’s house, and he will then distribute it to other victims according to the evacuees’ needs.

“I am very grateful to the Bitcoin donors. This aid is extremely valuable and truly needed by the victims to rebuild their lives,” Jack said with a happy expression.

I asked him about the weather, which is still bad, with frequent heavy rain, and whether he is afraid that another flood might come.

“Of course, when it rains, we can’t sleep comfortably. The fear is always there. I will evacuate again and leave everything behind. I hope the flood disaster will not happen again,” he said.

PoW: Installation of Water Pipeline in Bener Meriah, Aceh

Plebs, on Saturday, December 27, 2025, residents of Bener Meriah carried out community work to install a water pipeline. Previously, a severe landslide had struck the area, destroying their only source of clean water.

Earlier, I had already reported here about their needs and the donation amount for them:

https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqsfzyp3ngstamhhw9n0n2px5dqsfua0zdrgk4qr049ytc2sypj4yrcu3rnuh

Fauzan, one of the villagers there, thanked me, and I told him that the money I sent was a donation from Bitcoiners on Nostr.

“If that’s the case, please tell them that the residents of Rembele Village are grateful to the Bitcoiners,” he said via WhatsApp message.

Now, one month after the disaster, the residents of Rembele Village can once again access clean water flowing directly into their homes for daily needs such as washing, cooking, and sanitation.

Previously, they had to walk more than two kilometers to carry water for daily use, and even then, a single trip was not enough for one family.

Frustrated by the government’s slow response in helping to repair the water supply, they finally took action themselves—pooling their own funds and seeking help from outside.

In the end, they managed to purchase a total of 300 pipes (each pipe is 5.80 meters long and 3 inches thick). Of these, 22 pipes were funded by the donation I sent to them in cash.

They purchased the pipes from a store in another district. As residents living in the highlands, they are no longer isolated. Main roads and bridges damaged by floods and landslides have been temporarily repaired at several critical points, allowing them to be crossed carefully.

Plebs, thank you beyond words for your sats donations.

NEXT DONATION DISTRIBUTION (Phase 02)

Pengsats — Thu, 25 Dec 2025 20:43:26 GMT

NEXT DONATION DISTRIBUTION (Phase 02)

Location: Rembele Village, Bener Meriah Regency
Urgent need: Water supply pipes
Purpose: To access clean water
Donation amount: IDR 3,000,000
Form of donation: Cash

Story:

After Pidie Jaya, I allocated part of the donations to the community of Rembele Village, Bukit District, Bener Meriah Regency, Aceh, Indonesia. This highland area was severely affected by a major disaster on November 25, 2025.

As of today—29 days after the disaster—the area remains isolated. The main roads are cut off due to landslides, and bridges were destroyed by heavy flooding. The only fast way to reach the area is by air—by helicopter or small aircraft.

For now, residents are surviving with whatever they can manage. Their most urgent need is access to clean water. The floods and landslides destroyed their only water source. The pipes that supplied water to homes were completely damaged, and many springs were buried by landslides. As a result, residents must walk nearly two kilometers to collect clean water for daily needs.

Because aid from the central government has not arrived to rebuild the water system, villagers have begun working together to restore water access on their own. Fauzan, my older brother is one of the residents there. He survived the floods and landslides, and now they urgently need pipes to rebuild the water channel.

They need more than 800 meters of pipes to reach the water source. The community has raised funds independently, but it is not enough to cover all needs amid the hardship following the disaster. Plebs, I set aside part of your sats donations and sent them to my brother so he and the villagers can begin rebuilding the water system as soon as possible. They will purchase the required pipes locally.

They are still short of 80 pipes. Each pipe costs IDR 150,000. I have sent IDR 3,000,000 in cash, enough to buy 20 pipes—which is still far from sufficient, leaving a shortage of 40 more pipes.
“Whatever funds we have, it’s okay—we’ll try to find donations elsewhere,” my brother said.

I truly wanted to go there myself and deliver the needed supplies directly, but the only fast access is by air, which I cannot afford. Traveling by land would take many days on foot, crossing hills as alternative routes, since most main roads are severely damaged by landslides.

Proof of work for the donation will follow.

PoW: Delivering Aid to Flood Victims in Pidie Jaya, Aceh

Plebs, today I personally delivered part of the donated aid from all of you to the victims of the flash floods in Aceh, Indonesia—specifically in Teupin Pukat village, Meurah Dua District (Mereudu). The remaining donations will be distributed to other villages that were also severely affected.

The aid was received directly by the head of Teupin Pukat village, Mulyadi (wearing the green shirt on the far left).
Together with his team, he expressed deep gratitude to Bitcoiners, even though they do not fully understand how Bitcoin aid works or how it reached them. What amazed them most was when I told them that this help came from abroad.

_

FYI:
Previously, there were reports that the Indonesian government rejected aid from other countries that wanted to help disaster victims in Sumatra. In local media, Indonesian officials claimed they were capable of handling the disaster. However, in reality, the government response has been slow and appears neglectful. The affected people are deeply disappointed.

The items they received, which I purchased and delivered, were:

10 hoes
10 shovels
10 pairs of tall rubber boots
10 wheelbarrows

(A detailed report of items and prices will be shared in the next post.)

After receiving the aid, they immediately used the tools to work together, cleaning places of worship and their own homes that were buried under soil after the floods. Many houses are no longer habitable, forcing residents to stay in emergency tents.

The village officials of Teupin Pukat were happy and relieved to receive aid that truly matched their urgent needs.
I asked the village head about the village budget and assistance from the central government.

He sighed and said, “As a newly elected village head, I don’t have the freedom to use state funds. Only a very small portion can be disbursed, and even that requires complicated and slow bureaucracy.”

He continued, “The central government, which holds the real authority, only tells us to be patient. Aid has not arrived, so we are forced to move on our own and seek help from anywhere,” he said with a disappointed expression.

Today marks 28 days after the flood disaster. If the Indonesian government had handled the disaster properly, these communities would not have needed to seek recovery assistance from others.

HELP Aceh Rise Again: Post-Flood Rebuilding for Survivors

Plebs,

I have created an account and launched a fundraising campaign on Geyser Hopefully, this can help reach more donations from Bitcoiners around the world for the victims of the ecological disaster caused by flooding in Aceh.

Here is the link:
https://geyser.fund/project/fundforacehfloodvictims

The main focus of this fundraising is to purchase equipment to help clean homes that have been buried under mud and debris. The goal is to allow displaced families—along with their children—to return home and rebuild their lives after the disaster.

Any form of help, donations of any amount, are deeply appreciated. On behalf of the people of Aceh, I humbly thank you.

Plebs, today we discussed and decided that tomorrow, Tuesday, December 23, 2025, we will depart to distribute the sats donations from all of you to the victims of the floods and landslides in Aceh, specifically in Pidie Jaya Regency.

The victims whose homes were buried by soil after the floods urgently need equipment to clean their houses. We have already ordered the necessary tools. Tomorrow, we depart.

The total donation that has been converted into rupiah amounts to 1,000,901 sats, approximately 15 million IDR or around USD 895.

I was moved to do this because Bitcoin cannot be stopped by governments. Previously, our government was slow in responding to this ecological disaster. Even worse, the government refused aid from other countries such as the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia, China, and several other Middle Eastern countries.

I believe Bitcoin is the only form of aid that is fast, effective, and borderless. However, trust is what truly matters here. I may not be trusted, but the sats donations I have received will be distributed. Photos and videos will be the only proof of the work I have done to help my brothers and sisters here who are suffering after the disaster.

I’m still accepting sats donations. Once enough is collected, I will proceed with the second withdrawal phase. Thank you beyond words from all of us, Aceh plebs.
