Meanwhile, East Java Governor Khofifah Indar Parawansa also asked the Quran memorizers (hafiz and hafizah) not to stop learning. In addition to memorizing the Quran, they also need to learn about science and technology. "Support for Quran memorizers is quite large. The proof is that there are a lot of scholarships given. A number of campuses have also offered scholarships for hafiz and hafizah," she explained.

Therefore, Khofifah advised the graduates to continue to maintain the character and morals of the nation. The way is by continuing to practice the knowledge they already have. "This is important so that the character and morality of the younger generation is maintained from the onslaught of values that are contrary to Islam and humanity," she concluded.
