Chairman of the Bahrul Ulum Islamic Boarding School\nFoundation, K.H. Abdurrozaq Sholeh, said a small team has been formed to\nfollow up on the decision by the NU Executive Board (PBNU) to appoint\nthe pesantren as host. The team is discussing technical matters related\nto the preparation of the congress location. \u2018Alhamdulillah, we have\nformed a small team to follow up on PBNU\u2019s decision to appoint us as the\nhost of the 35th NU Congress. In terms of infrastructure, Tambakberas is\nvery ready to welcome the arrival of around 6,000 congress participants\nfrom various regions in Indonesia,\u2019 he said in Jombang on Wednesday. He\nrevealed that the pesantren will provide a two-hectare plot of land for\nparking, which is expected to be sufficient to accommodate the vehicles\nof the attendees. In addition to the parking area, the pesantren is\npreparing several supporting facilities such as a bazaar area, rest\nareas, and activity locations at several points within the pesantren\ncomplex. \u2018We have prepared venues at several points. There is a field\narea for the bazaar, rest areas, and parking. In the near future, the\napproximately two-hectare parking area in East Tambakberas will also be\ncompleted,\u2019 he said. Abdurrozaq added that the main activities of the\n35th NU Congress are planned to be centred at the K.H. Hasbullah Said\nMultipurpose Building within the Bahrul Ulum Islamic Boarding School\ncomplex in Jombang. According to him, the building was chosen because it\nhas a large capacity and has previously been used for a number of\nnational-scale events. \u2018The main location is at GSHS because the venue\nis very representative. It was previously used to welcome the 7th\nPresident and Vice President,\u2019 Abdurrozaq said. He added that so far\nthere are no significant obstacles in the preparation process because\nmost of the facilities and infrastructure are already available and only\nrequire completion in a few final areas. \u2018There are only a few small\ntouches for finishing. Overall, everything is ready,\u2019 he said.<\/p>",
