Viral! PPPK Decree Detained Because Of Balloons, This Is The Explanation Of The Batang Regency Government

Head of the Batang Hari Communication and Information Agency Amir Hamzah denied the news that Regent Muhammad Fadhil Arief had withheld the decree (SK) for the appointment of 1,077 government employees with the first wave of work agreement (PPPK) in Batang Hari Regency, Jambi due to the balloon release incident.

"That's a hoax, yes, the decree is still being distributed," Amir said in his statement, Tuesday, July 15.

According to him, the PPPK decree was not possible to be distributed simultaneously on the day of the inauguration because the number was large, so it took time.

Amir emphasized that the decree will still be distributed to employees who have been inaugurated through their respective regional apparatus organizations (OPD) after being signed by the witnesses present.

Previously, viral on Batang Regent Hari Fadhil Arief's social media detained SK 1,077 PPPK because of the balloon release incident at the inauguration at the Aek Meliuk Square Tourism Park, Muara Bulian, Batang Hari, Monday, July 14.

At that time, the PPPKs who were inaugurated lined up neatly holding colorful balloons. The balloons are planned to be released simultaneously to celebrate the happy momentum together. But what happened was that the participants released balloons before their time.

At first there was a sound from MC that directed them to get ready for a photo with the regent while holding a balloon.

"Please pay full attention, okay we count down three, two, one," said MC.

Unexpectedly, the PPPK actually released the balloons that were in their hands. Even though it's not yet time to let go.

"These women take photos together, not releasing balloons, that's why I said I heard information from me earlier," said MC.

Due to the incident, it was reported that the PPPK's decree was postponed because it was considered undisciplined or followed the leadership's directions.
