President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono will deliver his official Christmas speech on Sunday, presidential spokesman Julian Aldrin Pasha says.
Julian told The Jakarta Post on Friday that Yudhoyono would congratulate the country’s Christians in a state speech to be delivered at an official event to celebrate Christmas at the Jakarta Convention Center on Dec. 27, which is also expected to be attended by his Cabinet ministers.
“Today he has only internal schedules,” Julian said.
The President's apparent silence has raised questions and anxiety as to whether he would deliver a Christmas greeting at all this year.
