JAKARTA - Director General of Immigration at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights Silmy Karim explained that the disturbances that occurred in the immigration system were caused by the problem of the National Data Center. "There are problems with PDN, the National Data Center, which is managed by Kominfo," said Silmy when contacted by ANTARA via an online message from Jakarta, Thursday, June 20 evening. Silmy said the National Data Center was managed by the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology so that the completion was under the authority of the institution. "Immigration as a user, where our server is in PDN," he added. Silmy appealed to people who travel internationally to arrive early to anticipate queues at the immigration counter. "Come earlier to anticipate longer queues at the immigration counter. It is recommended three hours before the flight schedule," the Director General of Immigration ordered. Previously, based on ANTARA's monitoring at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, Thursday afternoon, the immigration checking system experienced disruptions resulting in passengers who had just arrived from abroad having to queue long. The Directorate General of Immigration at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights through uploads on its official Instagram channel @ditjen_imigration, Thursday afternoon, explained that disturbances at the National Data Center of Kominfo had an impact on all immigration services.

The National Data Center is not only intended for the Directorate General of Immigration, but also for storage and data management centers for all government agencies in Indonesia. "Sorry for the inconvenience. We will inform you when the system has resumed operations," said the post of the Directorate General of Immigration.
