Organizing hajj pilgrimage is actually an ordinary activity which has taken place for the past ten years, the vice president said, adding that however, the Indonesian government`s portion in organizing hajj pilgrimage was too small.
"The portion of the Indonesian government is too small as it only deals with registration and the system," Yusuf Kalla said, adding that sub contratctors carried out other businesses on flight services, catering and accomodations among other things.
The vice president admitted there was a problem on catering in last year`s hajj season but this year the catering would be better as the country has been experienced on the matter.
