TANGERANG - The Tangerang City Government in Banten Province is ready to assist in the management of the body of Moch Fajri Rifana (26), a obese person who died at the National Central General Hospital dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Jakarta this morning. "We are ready (to help) starting from the pick-up, the process of transporting the bodies, to the funeral process," said Head of the Tangerang City Health Office, Dini Anggraeni in a press statement in Tangerang, as reported by Antara, Thursday, June 22. The Tangerang City Health Office will coordinate with the RSCM manager to help manage Fajri's body. "In this case, the Health Office is ready to help what is needed according to the direction of the RSCM or family," said Dini. Head of the Tangerang City Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) Maryono said BPBD was also ready to assist in handling Fajri's body. "We are ready, both personnel and tools, if needed. We are just waiting for directions from the RSCM and the family for sure," said Maryono. The Tangerang City General Hospital referred Fajri to the RSCM because the obese sufferer could only be caught in bed so that his body continued to grow after a traffic accident about three years ago.

According to data from the Tangerang City General Hospital, the male weight from Larangan District was more than 260 kilograms before being referred to the RSCM. The RSCM medical team estimates that Fajri's weight reaches around 300 kilograms.
