Member of Commission VIII of the DPR from the PDIP Faction Selly Andriany Gantina assessed the completion of the construction of the Indramayu Hajj dormitory as a momentum for Hajj service reform. He also encouraged the readiness of services and governance that are accountable and humanistic.

Selly Gantina hopes that the completion of the construction will strengthen the readiness of embarkation, especially for pilgrims from West Java and surrounding areas.

"In addition to appreciating the completion of the construction of the Hajj Dormitory. I hope this will be a reform in improving the service of the implementation of the hajj," Selly Gantina said in a written statement, Wednesday, April 1.

The PDIP legislator from West Java VIII Dapil emphasized that the completion of physical development should not be interpreted as the completion of the state's responsibility, but rather as a continuation of the crucial phase in ensuring operational readiness, service quality, and professional and accountable governance.

Therefore, he assessed, the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah must ensure that these Hajj dormitories are truly ready to be used optimally, not only in terms of buildings, but also in terms of human resources, service systems, and clear operational standards.

"Including a thorough audit of the readiness of supporting facilities, such as health services, consumption, transportation, and the congregation management system. Don't let facilities that have been built with a large budget not be ready to serve optimally," he said.

He also hopes that the completion of the construction can remind the importance of the integration of the Indramayu Hajj Dormitory with the national embarkation system, including the readiness of access to transportation to the airport and inter-regional connectivity.

That is why, the former Regent of Cirebon asked for a careful planning for the existence of a dormitory in Indramayu. So that it can be used optimally.

Likewise, transparency in the management and utilization of the Hajj dormitory must be maintained. Selly assessed that the public has the right to know that every rupiah of the budget used really has an impact on improving services to pilgrims.

On the other hand, he hopes that the existence of this dormitory provides comfort and protection for pilgrims, especially the elderly and vulnerable groups, must be the top priority. "The Hajj dormitory is not just a transit place, but an important part of the worship experience that must be maintained its quality," he said.

By making it an important momentum, Selly Gantina hopes that the existence of the Indramayu Hajj dormitory will be a real test for the Government in improving the quality of Hajj services in general.

"I hope the government does not stop at the inauguration ceremony, but ensures that this facility really provides real benefits, increases the efficiency of the organization of the hajj, and presents a humanistic and dignified service for all pilgrims," he said.

Selly Gantina emphasized that she and the PDI Perjuangan Faction would continue to carry out strict supervision to ensure that the Indramayu Hajj Dormitory functioned optimally and became part of the reform of Hajj services in Indonesia.
