"Through this sacrifice, we hope that Allah SWT, God Almighty, will give strength to the ranks of the KKP (Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries) in carrying out the mandate of developing the marine and fisheries sector," he said.

In addition, Minister Trenggono also expressed his hope that the pandemic could end soon as vaccinations were more intensively carried out in Indonesia. He also appealed to all KKP employees and the public to comply with government recommendations, namely implementing strict health protocols.

"Please obey the procedure, don't take off the mask," he said.
