Here is Basuki's Opinon About Jilbab Rules at School

Jakarta Governor, Basuki T Purnama acknowledged he does not forbid anyone wearing the jilbab (Islamic headscarf). As long as it is from their own conscience, it is not the school rules that obligated the students wear the jilbab during the holy month of Ramadan.

I do not forbid people wearing the jilbab. I just tell the teachers that you don't force students to wear the jilbab but give them tausiyah (religious advice)

"I do not forbid people wearing the jilbab. I just tell the teachers that you don't force students to wear the jilbab but give them tausiyah (religious advice)," he stated, at City Hall, Wednesday (6/8).

Seeing such rules, he assessed, many students take off their jilbab after school hour is done. It is considered inappropriate to apply.

Basuki Determined to Beautify Mosques in Jakarta

"I see children who forced wearing the jilbab, and then take off it after riding a motorcycle with the father. This is tantamount to insult their religion. If you want to wear the jilbab, go ahead. But not because of the school uniform," he stated.

That is what makes him rejected such rules in the school. Supposedly, it is up to each individual to close the genitals.
