additional food are supports that given by this program to posyandu.
As a part of program KASIH, Posyandu Competition and Posyandu Fair are held as an evaluation and
appreciation to cadres and posyandu. In Posyandu competition, the judges that consist of Public
Health Office, Puskesmas and Kelurahan will measure the abilities and knowledge of cadres, both
operational and administration. The result of this scoring will be announced in Posyandu Fair, where
this event will not only involve posyandu but also surrounding community and partner to participate.
First year of Posyandu Competition and Posyandu Fair were held in Kelurahan Pondok Pinang (with

cadres are expected to be the role model, and have responsibility to transfer the knowledge and
spread the spirit for other Posyandu and community.
