All their document will be given to the Ministry of Religious Affair and proceed to general Consulate of Indonesia in Jeddah. "We will keep monitor them. But we have to go back to Jakarta first due to the Visa registration issue," the Chief of KKHI dr Budi Sylvana said from Medina on Tuesday (9/8/2022).

The health team will monitor them closely via phone or face time. They might even go back to Arab if there's an urgent call or something. "Some of them should wear a ventilator. We couldn't bring them home for it's too risky. But we hope they could all go home by the time," Sylvana said about the pilgrims.
