National Police Chief: 141,443 Personnel Secure Christmas-New Year
JAKARTA - National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo said as many as 141,443 personnel would be alerted to guard the 2024 Christmas and New Year (Nataru) celebrations.
The deployment of troops is carried out to maintain the spike in activity that will occur during the Nataru-2024 momentum.
"Is it a tourist activity, whether it's homecoming activities, either between provinces or in the province of departure," said Sigit as quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, November 23.
The 141,443 personnel are a combination of the TNI and Polri. They will be placed in 2,794 wax operations posts spread throughout Indonesia.
Not only guarding the post, Listyo ensured that his personnel would also patrol several crowded points to anticipate criminal acts.

However, General Sigit has not been able to explain in detail which points will be the main focus of security during Nataru 2024.
Therefore, he ensured that in the near future he would again hold a coordination meeting with the TNI and related institutions to finalize the technical security of Nataru 2024.
"We can prepare security in particular and also organize the 2024 Nataru series, so that it can run better," said the National Police Chief.
