alias Mualem previously refused and did not grant the wish of the Regent of South Aceh, Mirwan MS, who wanted to go abroad to perform the Umrah pilgrimage in the midst of floods and landslides.
The request for permission to travel abroad was submitted by the Regent of South Aceh to Mualem on November 24 2025. However, Mualem did not grant it because at that time Aceh was being hit by a hydrometeorological natural disaster.
“The Governor has submitted a written reply that the request cannot be granted or rejected,” said Aceh Government Spokesperson, Muhammad MTA, Friday (5/12).

The Umrah Regent will be reprimanded
Mualem will reprimand the Regent of South Aceh for being negligent and not heeding the letter of refusal to travel abroad.
“He (the Governor of Aceh) will reprimand the Regent of South Aceh,” he said.
Previously, South Aceh Regent Mirwan MS carried out the Umrah pilgrimage in the midst of floods and landslides that hit 11 sub-districts in his area.Moreover, Mirwan MS has issued a letter of inability to handle flood and landslide emergency responses.
The letter was published by Mirwan on Thursday (27/11) with number 360/1315/2025.Five days after that, on Tuesday (2/12), Mirwan actually went for Umrah with his family while there were still residents in the Trumon area taking refuge in refugee camps.
Mirwan’s actions drew criticism from residents because Aceh is currently experiencing a hydrometeorological disaster emergency.
Head of Protocol and Communications for the South Aceh Leadership, Denny Saputra, confirmed that the Regent of South Aceh was leaving for Umrah.His party reasoned that Mirwan left after seeing that the condition of South Aceh had improved from the flood disaster.
“The departure of the Regent of South Aceh and his wife for the Umrah pilgrimage to the holy land was of course after seeing the situation and condition of the South Aceh region which was generally stable, especially the water flow which had receded in residential areas in the Bakongan Raya and Trumon Raya areas,” said Denny when confirmed.
