Head of the West Sulawesi Food Crops, Horticulture and Livestock Service Muchtar, at a meeting discussing the presidential sacrificial cattle with the Acting Governor of West Sulawesi Akmal Malik, said the 1,027 kilogram cow was bought for Rp. 105 million from a farmer in Polewali Mandar Regency.
"Two days before Eid al-Adha, the sacrificial cow from President Joko Widodo will be brought to Mamuju," Muchtar said as quoted by Antara, Tuesday, July 5.
"We want equality so that this year it will be distributed at the Al-Ikhlas Mosque, Mamuju," he added.
