BENGKULU - Bengkulu Mayor Dedy Wahyudi allows state civil servants (ASN) within the city government to use official vehicles during the Eid 1446 Hijri holiday.

"In principle, we allow ASN and officials (to use official cars), but are still waiting for directions from the central government," he said in Bengkulu City, Antara, Wednesday, March 19.

However, the Bengkulu City Government (Pemkot) will follow the rules from the central government, whether ASN is allowed to use official vehicles or not during the Eid al-Fitr holiday.

"If later you are not allowed to use an official car, then we will follow it, but vice versa, if it is adjusted to the regional head, then if I am asked as long as ASN does not have a private vehicle and wants to use it, go ahead," said Dedy.

Meanwhile, Bengkulu Governor Helmi Hasan forbade ASN and ranks within the provincial government to use official vehicles during the Eid al-Fitr holiday.

This was done, to ensure that official vehicles in Bengkulu Province were only for official purposes, not for personal interests.

However, if there are different instructions from the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, which allows the use of official vehicles for homecoming activities, then the Bengkulu Provincial Government is ready to implement its policies.

"Yes, don't use it for Eid, but come back again to the President's decision. If the President gives permission to use it, yes, please use it. On the other hand, if the President forbids it, then don't use it. The Bengkulu Provincial Government follows the President's rules," said Helmi.

Some time ago ASN in the Bengkulu Provincial Government were allowed to use official vehicles during Eid al-Fitr homecoming, but only within the Bengkulu Province. On the other hand, the peak of homecoming flow in Bengkulu Province is predicted to occur from March 28 to 30, 2025.
