Jakarta: The Nusantara I Building at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Central Jakarta will be temporarily closed down next week after as many as 18 lawmakers contracted covid-19.
"We will temporarily close down the building from Monday until the beginning of the next session period on November 8," The Secretary General of the House of Representatives (DPR) Indra Iskandar said here on Thursday.
According to him, the DPR Secretariat cannot immediately close down the building because many staff still need to complete administrative and clerical tasks.
"So we still have to offer our services," he stated.
On Wednesday afternoon, the National Covid-19 Handling Task Force confirmed as many as 4.538 new covid-19 cases, bringing the total number of confirmed covid-19 cases across Indonesia to 315,714.
