"By today, the sixth day of observation in Sebaru Island of Seribu Islands, Jakarta, all the 188 World Dream crews are in good condition," Yurianto told the press. They have maintained their health since the very first day they arrived as their physical and laboratory tests showed good results, while their coronavirus test results were negative. Furthermore, according to the daily check-up conducted every morning and evening, they are also psychologically fine.

"Hence, we expect that they could return home after a 14-day-long observation process," he added.
