After performing the Eid prayer, the minister extended Eid greetings to all his staff and expressed his apologies in keeping with the spirit of Eid. He also called on all PUPR personnel to interpret the Ramadan month to maintain the credibility of the PUPR Ministry's organization.
"I urge all of us to interpret the results of our worship and practice during fasting in the month of Ramadan. We have conducted our worship honestly, sincerely, voluntarily, without burden, and with patience, which means never giving up in worship," Hadimuljono noted in a written statement received here, Monday.
The minister and spouse, Mrs. Kartika Basuki, attended the Eid prayer 1443 Hijriah in the Assalam Mosque at the Ministry of PUPR on Monday.
During the Eid prayer, Hadimuljono invited all PUPR personnel to demonstrate sincere intention in conducting their duties in developing infrastructure in Indonesia.
"Only with this intention can we make PUPR a trustworthy and credible organization, trusted by the Government and the Indonesian people in infrastructure development," he stated.
