JAKARTA - Lebaran holiday is still long. But the government has warned them not to approach the end of the holiday to return from their hometown.

President Joko Widodo said the government had arranged many things so that the backflow would be able to unravel congestion. However, so as not to get stuck in traffic at the peak of the return flow, travelers have been asked to return home early from their hometowns.

Following is President Jokowi's full statement from Gedung Agung, Yogyakarta Presidential Palace, May 3, 2022.

Ladies and gentlemen, dear brothers and sisters, After we celebrate Eid al-Fitr in our hometown, of course we will return to our respective places to work and other activities. I would like to remind that the government predicts the peak of the backflow will occur on May 6, 7, and 8, 2022.

In order to avoid the density of backflow and so that we are all comfortable on the trip, I urge you, I invite you, ladies and gentlemen, who are traveling by private vehicle, to return early or return after the peak of the return flow, of course in accordance with the permission obtained from work.

Once again, the government will always try to do what is best for the community, including arranging return trips with traffic management to relieve congestion. The odd-even policy, the one-way rule, and the prohibition of trucks from entering toll roads will still be enforced. Everything is done to make people feel comfortable.

That's all I can say. Thank you. Wassalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
