Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,
Assalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,
Good evening,
Peace be upon us all,
Om swastiastu,
Namo buddhaya,
Greetings of Virtue,
Distinguished Excellencies, Ambassadors of friendly countries,
Distinguished Ministers of the Indonesian Onward Cabinet, Indonesian National Defense Forces Commander, and Indonesian National Police Chief and its personnel,
Distinguished Acting Governor of Special Capital Region of Jakarta, Director of JI-Expo,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
People and residents of Jakarta and Greater Jakarta, as well as Indonesia, eagerly awaited the Jakarta Fair. Here, at the Jakarta Fair, people can enjoy entertainment and shop at affordable prices, for example culinary delights. There is also amusement, such as carnival parades and music concerts. That’s the charm of the Jakarta Fair.
The Jakarta Fair Kemayoran has been held 55 times, meaning it is held annually, and this is the 55th time. Last year, the event recorded more than 6 million visitors, which is also an extraordinary achievement.
And since the people have been waiting for it, by saying bismillahirrahmanirrahim, this evening I officially opened the 2024 Jakarta Fair Kemayoran.
I thank you.
Wassalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
