        "content": "<p>The Soekarno-Hatta Special Class I Immigration Office (TPI\nSoekarno-Hatta) in Tangerang, Banten, has accelerated the return\nservices for 34,853 Hajj pilgrims using Seamless Corridor Gate (SCG)\ntechnology.<\/p>\n<p>Galih P. Kartika Perdhana, Head of the Soekarno-Hatta Immigration\nOffice, stated on Wednesday that the use of this technology is part of\nthe agency\u2019s commitment to providing modern immigration services\noriented towards public convenience. \u201cThe utilisation of SCG has proven\ncapable of speeding up the inspection process, allowing pilgrims to\nproceed immediately to the Hajj Dormitory to rest after their long\njourney,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Seamless Corridor Gate (SCG) is an innovative, contactless, and\nwalk-through immigration inspection technology that utilises facial\nrecognition (biometrics) and artificial intelligence (AI). The gate\nautomatically verifies passenger identities in mere seconds as they walk\nthrough the corridor.<\/p>\n<p>Perdhana added that the agency remains committed to providing\nprofessional, humanist, and responsive immigration services, including\nsupporting the smooth implementation of this year\u2019s Hajj pilgrimage. For\npilgrims requiring assistance or those unable to be processed via the\nautomated system, inspections are conducted at immigration counters\nmanned by officers.<\/p>\n<p>He further noted that the optimisation of SCG is expected to support\nsmoother public mobility through the Immigration Checkpoints at\nSoekarno-Hatta Airport.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the General Manager of Soekarno-Hatta International\nAirport, Heru Karyatus, revealed that the airport will facilitate the\nreturn of 34,853 Hajj pilgrims to the country from 1 to 30 June 2024.\n\u201cThis number consists of 391 pilgrims from the Pondok Gede embarkation\nand 445 from Bekasi, served by Garuda Indonesia and Saudia Airlines,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n<p>Soekarno-Hatta International Airport will serve 84 flight groups\n(kloter) during this repatriation phase. This includes 8,701 pilgrims\nfrom the Pondok Gede embarkation, 12,092 from Bekasi, 9,096 from Banten,\nand 4,964 from Lampung.<\/p>",
