The 40 prospective pilgrims who failed to leave came from various regions in Riau Province. They did not confirm the payment for various reasons, including medical conditions that did not allow it, separation from the mahrom who had exceeded the age and so on. "Until the specified time limit, 40 prospective pilgrims did not confirm payment. the serial number of the smallest portion," he said as quoted by Antara.

To fulfill the empty quota due to pilgrims who do not confirm payment, it will be filled by reserves that have been prepared by the Riau Ministry of Religion. Hari said that his party was still waiting for a decision from the Directorate General of Hajj and Umrah, according to the arrangement of the flight group and division. "God willing, we will publish the total number of departing passengers in the near future," he said.
