Thus, the committee team will only provide a notification letter regarding the action. Although, not officially licensed.

"It's only enough for us to give a notification letter. Without a permit," he said.

While in the licensing process, Eka stated that his party had submitted an application to the COVID-19 Task Force to the Head of Transportation Agency. However, until now there has been no further information on the request.

"We have given all the letters. The Head of Transportation Agency told us that they have never issued a recommendation. Only then will they receive a directive from the Metro Police to hold a technical meeting that has been in effect so far," said Eka.

An application to the COVID-19 Task Force has also been sent. However, still waiting for developments on the application

"For the Covid-19 Task Force, we sent it yesterday. Because we got the information from intelligence, we have submitted it," said Eka.

"We are still trying to fulfill the requirements of the Polda Metro," said Eka Jaya.

Previously, Polda Metro Jaya stated that it had received an application for a crowd permit related to the 212 Reunion. However, until now, no permit has been issued regarding the application.

"There has been a proposal (a letter), namely on Thursday, November 18, 2021, it was submitted to us," said Head of Public Relations of the Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Endra Zulpan.

The permit has not been given, said Zulpan, because the applicant has not completed several requirements. One of them is a letter of recommendation from the COVID-19 Task Force.

The recommendation letter is very important during the current pandemic. The goal is to prevent the spread of COVID-19. "One of them (requirements for the recommendation of the COVID-19 Task Force)," said Zulpan
