Head of the Mukomuko District Civil Service Police Unit, Suryanto, Tuesday (18/7/2023) ANTARA/Ferri.

MUKOMUKO - The Mukomuko Regency Civil Service Police Unit, Bengkulu, asked massage parlor and karaoke entertainment businesses in this area to respect local customs and wisdom so that conflicts with the local community do not occur. "Please do their business with a record of respect for local customs and wisdom. Don't give inconvenience to the surrounding community," said Head of the Mukomuko District Civil Service Police Unit, Suryanto in Mukomuko, Antara, Tuesday, July 18. This, he continued, followed up on the aspirations of community leaders, traditional leaders or tribes of the Soandoko people, Kota Mukomuko District, who asked the local government (Pemda) to close massage parlors in the area. The aspirations conveyed by traditional leaders and the community are local wisdom. However, from the government side, to close something must be with the applicable provisions and rules. "We don't necessarily close them, because they do business that is protected by law," he said. The majority of places for massage and karaoke entertainment parlors in this area already have business licenses that are electronically integrated or Online Single Submission (OSS). Nevertheless, he said, the majority of massage parlor businesses do not yet have massage actors who have expertise and certificates issued by the authorities. Supposedly, he said, the massage parlor's place of business should have a therapist who has baby massage expertise trained by midwives and other experts.

Furthermore, he asked massage parlor businesses in this area to employ therapists who have the skills to provide massage services for consumers. His party has several times controlled massage parlor workers in the area who do not yet have a certificate of expertise in therapy.
