Jakarta City Council held halal bi halal (Eid gathering) at City Council building, Tuesday (4/8).

This is a symbol of how we all let go of what has happened so far

It was held to strengthen silaturahmi (friendship) and forgive each other after the celebration of Idulfitri 1446 Hijri.

Jakarta Governor, Pramono Anung and his partner, Rano Karno were also present at the location.

"This is a symbol of how we all let go of what has happened so far. With sincerity and shaking hands, we believe that all these sins will be forgiven," expressed Jakarta City Council Chairman, Khoirudin.

After the halal bi halal, his party and the Jakarta Government were expected to continuously commit to collaborating in advancing Jakarta.

"Hopefully, this is a good moment for us together because collaboration is an inevitability and a necessity," he stressed.

He added the development of Jakarta would not proceed smoothly without the City Council's intervention. He was also grateful that all his staff were committed to making Jakarta a global city.

"I am grateful that everyone is united in attending today. It signifies that this unity can build Jakarta together with the governor," he stressed.

Even, he would hold a coffee morning to align perceptions among all their members in building Jakarta for the future.

"Insya Allah (God willing), once our friendship is close, all problems can be resolved. When we meet, there is a spiritual connection and eye contact, which will create a positive aura through shared togetherness," he said.
