The salaries of Hajj Done 96%, 2.5 Km from the farthest reaches of the Grand Mosque

Jakarta -good news for the 2011 pilgrims began flying early October later. Because the salaries during the Hajj in Mecca was in the "ring" aka very close to the Grand Mosque.

"Housing has been sorted out 96 percent, the remainder may be less than five months away," explained the Technical Staff of the CONSULATE GENERAL in Jeddah, Hajj Subhan Cholid on detikcom and RRI, on the sidelines for training officers of the Committee of Hajj non kloter, Thursday (29/6/2011).

This training was attended by participants from all over Indonesia 815, housed in Pondok Gede Pilgrimage Dormitory, Jl Raya Pondok Gede, East Jakarta. "The maximum Distance with the salaries of 2,500 meters, the Grand Mosque so there is also a pemondokannya just 600 meters from the Grand Mosque," he added.

Compared to the previous year's Hajj, obviously it's very profitable because people don't have to travel a distance that is exhausting. Try to compare the salaries of 2008 which is located about 13 miles, years of 2009 which is 7 km, and 2010 which is 4 km.

Subhan speak, the Government requires the Saudi Hajj Committee in order to provide transportation for pilgrims who stayed over 2,000 meters from the Grand Mosque. But the use of means of transport such as bus rated ineffective because of the traffic there is very bad. Fair enough, because pilgrims worldwide will be tumplek in the town.

"So no need to transport because it does not resolve the issue, because once congested Makkah will be bogged down, you bet," he said.

Subhan speak, the lodging rates 3600 riyals per person during the Hajj.
