JAKARTA - The Makassar City Government will hold the 2022 Eid prayer at Karebosi Field. This is the first time after two years that it cannot be carried out due to COVID-19.
The implementation of the 2022 Eid prayer at Karebosi Field was confirmed by the Mayor of Makassar, Danny Pomanto. This policy was taken after the COVID-19 vaccination coverage in Makassar was already relatively high.
"I, along with other officials and the general public, will carry out the Eid prayer at Karebosi Field", said the Mayor of Makassar, as quoted by Antara.
He said his party had made preparations to hold the Eid prayer at Karebosi Field. The mayor also reminded people who want to perform Eid prayers there to comply with health protocols.
"Even now it is still a pandemic, it's just that we have started to adapt and the level of achievement of complete dose vaccination, namely doses 1 and 2 in Makassar is also quite high. So now we can be free, but still adhere to health protocols", he said.
