Continuing To Hold National Conference, Kadin Charters Garuda Indonesia Airplanes To Bring Participants To Kendari

JAKARTA - Chairman of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Rosan Perkasa Roeslani, confirmed that the VIII Kadin National Conference (Munas) for the election of Kadin chairman would still be held from June 30 to 31 in Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi. He ensures that the event will implement super strict health protocols.

Furthermore, Rosan said to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the VIII National Conference area, his party would conduct a COVID-19 health test based on antigen swab and PCR.

"We see that Kendari is not a red zone. So it can be carried out (Munas VIII Kadin) and we follow the government's rules how much is the percentage and all those who come are PCR, not only every day but what comes out of that location we antigen and PCR, " he said in a virtual press conference, Monday, June 28.

Not only that, said Rosan, to ensure that all participants of the National Conference VIII Kadin are free from COVID-19, Kadin will charter a Garuda plane as the participant's transportation to Kendari.

"We also chartered planes for all participants. They didn't leave individually. We chartered a Garuda plane so before leaving we first tested the test for a combination of PCR and antigen. So we chartered all planes to fly. It's true that we will take care of everything for the good of us all," he said.

Rosan also hopes that the event which will be held by implementing this super strict health protocol can run smoothly without increasing active cases of COVID-19 in Kendari.

"So really we will keep everything for the good of us all," he said.

Rosan said that this once in five year contest will also be attended by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi). However, Rosan said, the room will be occupied by the president with a capacity of 100 people. So not all the National Conference participants were in the room.

"The plan is for around 200 people to attend. But separately with the president, only 100 people. It's open in the middle of the sea and the preparations have gone well," he said.

Furthermore, Rosan said, Kadin not only held a National Conference in Kendari, but also carried out the COVID-19 Gotong Royong vaccination for 15,000 people.

"We will carry out a massive vaccination of 15,000 vaccinations and this event will also be held in an open room with very strict health protocols," he said.
