Head of the Class I Immigration Office of Non TPI Karawang, Petrus Teguh Aprianto conveyed that the TKA document examination activities were also in the context of securing the 2023 Christmas and 2024 New Year holidays.

"This activity was held simultaneously for the last two days in all Immigration Offices throughout Indonesia, with the aim of obtaining information in the form of immigration permit status from each foreign worker," he said in Karawang, Friday.

Especially in Karawang, 73 foreign workers were examined. They are foreign workers from a number of companies in the Karawang and Purwakarta areas.
