海事和投资部长潘贾坦表示，印尼政府将为“特定地区的900万人接种疫苗，我们认为这些地区对处理大量新冠病例做出了巨大贡献。例如，在雅加达，我们认为有几个地区对新冠病例的统计有重大贡献，因此（我们将）给他们接种疫苗。”
The Indonesian government will give vaccinations to "nine million people in specific areas that we believe contribute greatly to handling the high number of Covid-19 cases," Pandjaitan said. "In Jakarta, for instance, there are several areas that we believe contribute significantly to the tally of Covid-19 cases, and (we will) give them a shot."
潘贾坦称，疫苗接种“很可能会在2020年12月的第三周开始”。
Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan said vaccinations "would likely start in the third week of December 2020."
据悉，疫苗接种工作将与科兴生物制品有限公司和印尼国有生物科技公司Bio Farma联合进行的疫苗三期临床试验分开，在西爪哇展开。
The vaccination drive is separate from Phase 3 clinical trials for Sinovac, taking place in West Java in conjunction with Indonesia's state-owned biotechnology company Bio Farma.
印尼政府表示，接种疫苗将解除对巴厘岛的限制，该地作为受欢迎的旅游目的地，原计划于2021年初重新开放。
Indonesian authorities said the vaccinations will put the country on track to lift restrictions in popular tourist destination Bali -- planned to reopen in early 2021.
潘贾坦说：“我们希望看到巴厘岛成为绿色区域，这是我们的目标。我们对巴厘岛在明年年初成为安全区域感到乐观，因为我们将在12月的第三周开始接种疫苗。”
"We are keen to see Bali become a green zone, which is our target. We are optimistic that Bali is becoming a green zone at the start of next year, as we will commence vaccinations in the third week of December," Panjaitan remarked.
