Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –

Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy Sandiaga One who was just inaugurated this morning, Wednesday (12/23), said he was confused by a call from the Head of the State Intelligence Agency Budi gunawan before being summoned to the Palace by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi).

He admitted that he did not understand the meaning of the message he received in relation to the prayer for the recovery from Covid-19 or the appointment of a minister in the Advanced Cabinet of Indonesia.

Sandi, who for the past week underwent independent isolation after being declared exposed to Covid-19, admitted that he received several messages from various ministers in Indonesia’s Advanced Cabinet.

The first message, Sandi, came from the Minister of the Secretary of State, Pratikno. At that time, Pratikno sent him a message saying ‘Bismillah’, which he then replied with the word Bismillah.

He admitted that he never considered these messages as a form of call to be part of Minister Jokowi. Just consider the message as a prayer of healing for him who is fighting Covid-19.

“There was a message from Pak Pratik, about last Friday, the message was briefly ‘Bismillah, more’. I thought about my recovery. I replied ‘Bismillah sir'”, said Sandi at the State Palace after the inauguration of Jokowi as Menparekraf.

Also, Sandi said, during the healing process, many colleagues sent her messages and prayers about her recovery. After Pratikno sent the ‘code’ message that Sandi didn’t understand, several other names also ‘followed suit’ in sending messages.

“After that, several friends in Pak Budi Gunawan’s cabinet, the head of BIN, Pak Erick Thohir also contacted me. But because of the confusion between my recovery or something else,” he said.
