JAKARTA - Islamic boarding schools (Ponpes) in Central Java are asked to be open if any of their students have symptoms or are even exposed to COVID-19. This is to facilitate handling and prevention of transmission of this virus.
"Say whatever is good, even though it is bitter. Even though we think it is not good for our boarding school, this openness is what we currently need," said Deputy Governor of Central Java Taj Yasin Maimoen at the Child Friendly Islamic Boarding School socialization event quoted from jatengprov. .go.id, Wednesday July 15.
Then, he also asked each boarding school administrator to form a Jogo Santri Task Force. They must regularly control the health of the students. The goal is to facilitate coordination in handling this virus.
"If it has been formed, the SK for the formation of Jogo Santri must also be coordinated with the village head, RT head and local RW head. So it will be easier to coordinate if an incident happens to the Islamic boarding school," he said.
Furthermore, students who return to the pesantren are required to bring a health certificate, have undergone 14 days of self-quarantine and continue upon arrival of the boarding school.
Meanwhile, Deputy for Community Participation at the Ministry of Women Empowerment and Child Protection, Indra Gunawan said that students, especially those who are still children and live in dormitories, must be protected from various dangerous things, including, from the dangers of COVID-19.
