"The attendance rate is at an average of 95 percent on the first day after Idul Fitri holidays."
Bandung (ANTARA News) - West Java Governor Ahmad Heryawan made an impromptu inspection in several government offices here Thursday to check attendance of civil servants on the first working day following Idul Fitri holidays.

"Alhamdulillah (Thank God), the attendance rate at the West Java administration`s education office, the youth and sports office, and the health office, is almost 100 percent, except for those who are on leave or the doctors and paramedics who are being assigned to Idul Fitri homeward-bound trip command posts," he said.

In previous years, the attendance rate of civil servants on the first working day after the holiday was also 99 percent, he stated.

"This is the fifth Idul Fitri during my administration. The attendance rate is at an average of 95 percent on the first day after Idul Fitri holidays," he added.

The high rate of attendance is due to most of the West Java administration`s civil servants being originally from the province, as only a few come from outside the province, he explained.

Governor Heryawan first inspected the sports and youth office, and later the health office, the education office and, finally, the agriculture and horticulture office.
