The signing of this Presidential Decree follows a Joint Decree or SKB of three ministers, which was stipulated on September 12, 2023. The three ministers are Minister of Religious Affairs Yaqut Cholil Qoumas, Minister of Manpower Ida Fauziayah, and Minister of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform Azwar Anas.
The Presidential Decree also regulates provisions for national holidays. The regulation of joint leave days for civil servants falls under a presidential decree, while those for private institutions/agencies are regulated by their respective leaders.
