Continuously Producing PPE and Face Shields for Medical Workers, Stephen Wongso from Wang Hang Tailor Engages in Price Wars with Fake PPE

Kapanlagi.com - Until now, Covid-19 is still not over. The government regulations through PPKM (Community Activity Restrictions) are still in effect. With these regulations, the current condition has improved significantly, and the number of recovered patients continues to increase.

It is also thanks to the hard work of medical workers. Willing to wear personal protective equipment (PPE), these healthcare workers tirelessly help patients affected by Covid-19.

However, the demand for healthcare facilities, especially PPE, remains high for medical workers. According to cakrline.com, Stephen Wongso from Wang Hang Tailor has been continuously producing PPE and face shields for medical workers.

Stephen Wongso has been one of the people producing PPE since the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic. He is dedicated to producing PPE with the highest standards to protect healthcare workers. He has also increased production lines and work shifts to meet the supply of PPE throughout Indonesia.

Not only producing PPE and face shields, Stephen Wongso also revealed that he is actively combatting the price of counterfeit PPE.

"On the other hand, fighting the price war with counterfeit PPE produced domestically or abroad that is uncertified. As a result, superior products will appear more expensive compared to counterfeit products because many people do not understand the correct standards," said Stephen Wongso.

Not only in Jakarta, Stephen Wongso has also sent PPE production to all hospitals and healthcare facilities throughout Indonesia from Sabang to Meraoke.

"We serve almost all hospitals and healthcare facilities throughout Indonesia from Sabang - Meraoke, from provinces to districts and small towns including remote areas of Indonesia that are not easily accessible by the media and the general public," he added.

2. Send to Major Cities

Stephen Wongso himself has also prepared PPE to be sent to major cities that have been heavily affected by Covid-19 based on the sales data.

"It seems to be under control in major cities in Java but not in other regions outside Java, we can see from our sales data that has skyrocketed in those areas that are not widely covered," he said.

"We will always produce PPE because we have invested in a team and special equipment for PPE production, as this pandemic is predicted to become an endemic and PPE + medical gowns will always be needed," he added.

"And after this pandemic, people's lifestyle has changed, where they can use reusable items to become disposable (single-use). So in the future, the use of disposable clothing will become a new habit (PPE, medical gowns, etc.)," he added.
