Head of the Lampung Provincial Health Office (Kadinkes) Reihana asked health workers (nakes) and doctors in Lampung not to take a strike in voicing their aspirations to reject the Draft Health Law (RUU).

"Earlier, the aspirations of doctors, pharmacists, nurses, midwives were heard together regarding their objections to the points in the Health Bill," said Reihana, in Bandarlampung, Thursday, May 11, which was confiscated by Antara.

He asked doctors and health workers in his area to continue to carry out their duties to provide health services to the community.

"I strongly ask my fellow doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and midwives, hopefully there will be no strike activities on May 17-19 because our profession is urgently needed by the community," he said.

He continued, by continuing to operate health services, especially for emergencies, the community can continue to be helped to get treatment quickly.

"Hopefully there will be no simultaneous leave activities, so that all health services, especially the emergency, will continue and no one will be harmed by this," he said.

He continued to respond to the issue, the government would try to find the best solution.

"We will find a solution so that everything is accommodated. It is hoped that there will be the best solution for this incident, one of which is by conveying this aspiration to the governor who is continued to the central government," he concluded.
