President Prabowo Subianto will soon form a special team to study the technicalities and possible cooperation that can be taken regarding the plan to establish a village for Indonesian Hajj pilgrims in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.

"The Hajj village, also He (the President, ed.) will form a team to study the possibilities that can be done by the Saudi (Arabian) Government and the Indonesian Government," said the Head of the Hajj Organizing Agency (BPH) Mochamad Irfan Yusuf answering journalists' questions when met on the sidelines of President Prabowo Subianto's visit to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Thursday, as quoted from a voice recording received in Jakarta.

On the same occasion, the Minister of Religion (Menag) Prof. Nasaruddin Umar explained that the study team would later be tasked with formulating a technical cooperation model and the required regulations.

"In accordance with the President's direction, we have collaborated with BPH to immediately follow up on the drafting of the law that will regulate this matter," said Nasaruddin.

Meanwhile, Coordinating Minister for Food Zulkifli Hasan is optimistic that the Hajj village desired by Indonesia will soon be realized during President Prabowo's administration.

"God willing, the Hajj village in the era of Mr. Prabowo will be realized," said Zulhas, Zulkifli Hasan's popular nickname.
