Religious Affairs Minister Suryadharma Ali said the government would not revise the joint ministerial decree (SKB) on the Ahmadiyah and construction of house of prayers.
"The SKB will not be revised and the regulation stay," he said after opening a regional board meeting of the United Development Party (PPP) that he chairs.<<>br />
He said the regulation was still relevant to especially regulate construction of house of prayers to assure religious tolerance in the country.
Some North Sulawesi residents have expressed hope that the government would revoke the SKB which they considered no longer relevant for the present situation.
"A lot of individuals has used the SKB as a pretext for acting across the line and therefore it needs to be revoked," the secretary of the Youth Commission of the Bethel Church of North Sulawesi-Gorontalo, Christian Rawis, said.
He said the government had better use all existing laws in the country to regulate religious freedom here. (ant/dar)
