However, we have already prepared\na framework together with the city government, which has issued a\ncircular or regulation regarding the implementation of takbiran should\nit coincide with the Nyepi celebration of our Hindu friends,\u201d he\ncontinued.<\/p>\n<p>A number of personnel will be deployed at various points to maximise\nsecurity during both celebrations. According to Hendro, security\noperations also involve pecalang (Balinese security volunteers) and the\nmilitary.
