Then the third appearance is the wife of the Governor of East Kalimantan (Kaltim), Yulia Zubir. The doctor who works at the Ministry of Health told a story when she had to replace her husband to give a speech.
“There was a sudden invitation for my husband to give a speech, but he couldn't attend because of other activities, so I was asked to replace him,” said Yulia.
