JAKARTA: Indonesia has decided to cancel its Hajj program for its citizens this year due to the corona virus .
"Until today, Saudi Arabia has not reopened the hajj trip for any country," Religious Affairs Minister Fachrul Razi said in a televised statement on Tuesday.
Earlier, the Indonesian government said it would cancel its program if Saudi Arabia did not make a final decision by May 20.

On the other hand, the Saudi government had requested not to make preparations for the Hajj, but no clear decision had been made.
