So we ask for prayers (prayers) for all so that what we have done and what we will do in the future can provide blessings for all," he said. Khofifah said that in East Java there is still a lot of homework to do even though so many achievements and achievements have been achieved and achievements and progress in East Java can only be achieved if all elements join hands and synergize in harmony.
