Press Statement of President of the Republic of Indonesia on Mass COVID-19 Vaccination Inspection, 9 June 2021, at Kelapa Dua Sports Center in Tangerang Regency, Banten Province

Assalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

This afternoon I inspected mass vaccination in Tangerang regency, Banten province (joined by) approximately 10,000 people, including senior citizens, pre-senior citizens, education workers, everyone.

I saw that the management was orderly and the vaccination proceeded well. We want the vaccination process that is carried out in Tangerang regency, in a large number, to also be carried out by other provinces, by other regencies / cities, so with our (vaccination) rate, we can achieve 700,000 (vaccinations) per day in June and one million per day.

I would like to thank Banten Governor and Tangerang Regent, and especially Minister of Health for their continuous efforts. We hope this (vaccination) will protect us all from COVID-19 transmission.

That concludes my speech.

I thank you. (DH/EP)
