JAKARTA - Vice President Ma'ruf Amin said the government decided not to dissolve or revoke the permit for the Al Zaytun Islamic Boarding School because of the consideration that many students and students were studying there.

"The meeting is indeed a large number of people (who) want (the government) to disband, to close. But there are indeed considerations that there are a lot of students, quite large, yes, that number," said the Vice President as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, July 5.

The vice president said the government decided to foster, as well as straighten out the faith and understanding of nationality in the pesantren.

"Well, coaching needs to be done, so maybe some of the alternatives are not disbanded but built, well fostered, so that pesantren can run, can learn but in accordance with the correct aqidah, as well as in our system in the nation and state," he explained.

The vice president said the government entrusted the handling of the Al Zaytun Islamic Boarding School in coordination led by the Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs.

Meanwhile, regarding the alleged violation aspects committed by the boarding school caregiver, Panji Gumilang, it was completed through the applicable legal process.

"Processed for Panji Gumilang. If that's the case, there will be something that I did not precede, what kind of decision will there be," said the Vice President.
