KH.Alwi Uddin, chairman of Muhammadiyah South Sulawesi, said that this assistance was a sense of concern of regional Muhammadiyah in seeing the development of Muhammadiyah school at Balebo which since its establishment in 1980 had not met electricity facilities. Moreover, a number of 23 teachers were paid with only honorarium of Rp. 16.000,- per month, and would be paid every three months, it really touched the heart of the regional board of Muhammadiyah with the condition, but nonetheless it was still capable of to exist in producing cadre of clerics as heritance of the prophet.
