Cak Imin Urges the Public to Keep Exercising Regularly Even During Ramadan

This was stated by Cak Imin during his attendance at the Festival Jejak Jajanan Nusantara, held in the South-West Car Park area of Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, on Sunday 8 February 2026. Cak Imin said he deliberately keeps up exercise to ensure his rhythm of physical activity remains maintained during Ramadan. He also applauded the growing enthusiasm among Indonesians to exercise. He noted that public interest in exercise has been rising lately. That is good news for efforts to protect public health. “We are grateful that recently the spirit of sport among people across Indonesia has been vibrant and enthusiastic,” he said. “A friend of mine, named Mr. Bambang, has become slimmer through exercise. When you’re slimmer, your clothes size is smaller, and costs are cheaper. Happy exercising, and happy Ngabuburit Run,” he said.
