BOGOR - Welcoming the Month of Fasting or Ramadan of the Acting Regent of Bogor Iwan Setiawan instructed the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP) to close nightclubs (THM) in Bogor Regency.

This step is important to take to maintain conduciveness during Ramadan. He wants the community to be calm in carrying out worship during Ramadan.

"Later on, we will also make a circular or official letter. Satpol PP must be firm, impose sanctions on those who are stubborn. It must be recorded again for entertainment venues tonight. If there is no permit, it must be permanently closed," said Iwan.

In addition, Iwan invited all elements of society to participate in maintaining conduciveness ahead of the month of Ramadan.
