JAKARTA - The government allows the public to perform halal-bibalal during the Eid al-Fitr this year. However, with a note, this family and relative gathering activity is carried out without eating and drinking together.

This was stated by Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto after a limited meeting on the evaluation of PPKM led by President Joko Widodo.

"Mr. President gave notes related to the activities leading up to the halalbihalal later. Especially for halalbihalal activities that are held with health protocols and are advised not to eat and drink," said Airlangga in the Presidential Secretariat's Youtube show, Monday, April 18.

However, if you want to eat and drink, Airlangga asks the community to keep their distance and place from other people.

In addition, Airlangga said the government would also adjust restrictions on entertainment venues or crowded places.

"Activities at entertainment venues or in crowded places are carried out in accordance with health protocols and also according to capacity. Well, of course this activity will later be stated in the Instruction of the Minister of Home Affairs," said Airlangga. In this case, the government has relaxed restrictions on community activities. The government has again allowed going home.

The condition is that people who have received the third or booster dose of vaccination no longer need to attach the results of the COVID-19 test.

Meanwhile, for people who have just carried out the second dose of vaccination, they can still go home but must complete a negative COVID-19 antigen test result within 1x24 hours or 3x24 hour PCR.

Then, people who are still undergoing the first dose of vaccination are required to do a 3x24 hour PCR test and attach a negative COVID-19 result before traveling.
