JAKARTA - Deputy Minister of Hajj and Umrah Dahnil Anzar Simanjuntak revealed that the World Muslim League will also talk with the Government of Saudi Arabia regarding the plan to build Hajj Village.
Dahnil said President Prabowo Subianto expressed his appreciation to the Government of Saudi Arabia and the World Muslim League for their support for Indonesia. Hajj Village is expected to improve Hajj services in the future.
"The World Muslim league will participate in talking with the Government of Saudi Arabia, in this case Prince Crown, MBS (Muhammad bin Salman Al Saud), to jointly simplify Indonesia's plan to build Hajj Villages in Saudi Arabia," said Dahnil at the Presidential Palace complex, Jakarta, Thursday, December 4.
In addition to supporting the construction of the Hajj Village, the World Muslim League also plans to build a prophet museum in Jakarta.
Dahnil said the museum was dedicated to the Muslim community in Indonesia and the historical education center of the prophet.
The Anagata Danantara Daya Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara) revealed the progress of the Indonesian Hajj Village project in Makkah, Saudi Arabia.
Danantara Chief Investment Officer (CIO) Pandu Patria Sjahrir said the 80 hectares (ha) integrated area had entered the auction stage or bidding with 90 other bidders. The bid results are estimated to be known in mid-December 2025.
Later, the Indonesian Hajj Village will be used as an integrated area to facilitate pilgrims from Indonesia as well as introduce various Indonesian products and services to the global level.
In addition to participating in the official bidding, Pandu said Danantara was exploring a number of business-to-business (B2B) agreements with asset owners around the Hajj Village area. This step was taken to anticipate the wider needs of potential visitors and Indonesian business actors.
The area will become Indonesia's storefront in the international arena by presenting various leading business sectors in the country.
This area is planned to accommodate various sectors, ranging from culinary, fashion modes, tourism, pharmaceuticals, media to sharia-based businesses.
