TAKALAR - The initiative of the Chief of Police of Takalar, South Sulawesi (Sulsel) AKBP Beny Murjayanto deserves thumbs up. Together with the Narcotics Research Unit team, the Police Chief mixed the Makassar liquor (alcohol), ballo became a hand sanitizer.

This hands anitizer made of tuak / arak alcohol was produced and introduced by the Head of the Takalar Police, AKBP Beny Murjayanto at the Takalar Police Headquarters. AKBP Beny said the breakthrough in producing hand sanitizers from ballo raw materials began with the Takalar Police analysis regarding the high crime rate in the area.

The criminal act called AKBP Beny was triggered by the influence of ballo-type alcohol consumed by the perpetrator. This innovation was created, in order to reduce the crime rate due to the influence of ballo, by utilizing traditional alcohol to become a very useful product for the community, especially in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"By processing this type of ballo alcohol, besides being able to reduce the crime rate, of course it can also improve the community's economy, so that if people produce it, it will increase their household income, and this is very positive," said Chief of Takalar Police, AKBP Beny Murjayanto, contacted VOI, Wednesday, November 24.

AKBP Beny said that there is another benefit by producing this hand anitizer made from ballo alcohol, so that the spread of COVID-19 can be reduced through prevention. If ballo alcohol has been synonymous with crime, then processing it into a hand sanitizer is very beneficial for the community.

The traditional Makassar type ballo liquor was originally processed by boiling it to dripping pure alcohol vapor. Then pure alcohol vapor is collected in one container.

The results of the distillation were then taken to the South Sulawesi Police forensic laboratory (labfor) with a letter requesting a laboratory test (examination) from the Head of the Takalar Police Drug Research Unit number: B / 71 / X / 2020 / Res.Narkoba to check the contents of the ballo refined results.

The results of the ballo processing / refining laboratory test are numbered: SKEV / 140 / X / 2020 / Bidlabfor which states that the content is positive alcohol (ethanol) with a content of 52.00 percent. With these results, the Drug Research Unit has succeeded in processing / refining the traditional ballo drink into a hand sanitizer.

Ballo, which has been used as a hand sanitizer, is given additional ingredients, namely 70 percent alcohol antifect and perfume seeds.

Then the Bhayangkari Polres Takalar packed bottles of various sizes and put them in boxes, then the hand sanitizers that were produced were ready for use both within the family of the Takalar Police and the surrounding community.
