Anies Asks Residents To Participate In Monitoring Activities That Violate The Transitional PSBB

JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan has asked the public to participate in supervising all activities that violate transitional Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) regulations. Such as office activities, shops, houses of worship, social activities, and open public spaces.

This is because Anies is aware that his staff, such as Satpol PP, Transportation Service, and One Stop Integrated Services (DPMPTSP) are not sufficient to supervise all locations. Where the number of places opened is not proportional to the number of officers.

"I would like to invite all Jakarta residents to participate in monitoring, because it is impossible for law enforcement officers to monitor such a large number," said Anies at the City Hall of DKI, Central Jakarta, Friday, June 5.

Anies asked his citizens not to hesitate to reprimand the activity organizers who violated the transitional PSBB rules. Then, residents can also report this to the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government so that it is followed up.

"We will act in accordance with all existing regulations and we do not hesitate to revoke permits, to close the premises if there are three violations," he said.

Anies again reminded residents to always implement COVID-19 prevention protocols, such as wearing masks, maintaining a safe distance, and always washing hands with soap. Then, for those who feel sick, they are expected not to leave the house.

When leaving the house and coming to a place, Anies asked residents not to force themselves if the place looked crowded.

"Visiting any place, you have to see (conditions, red). If you have half the capacity, then don't enter. For site managers, they must be aware that they can only limit 50 percent of their capacity," he said.

All these suggestions Anies said for one reason. If residents still violate the PSBB regulations and do not apply health protocols, it will have the potential to increase the transmission of the corona virus.

"If the patient increases, if the death toll increases, then the DKI Task Force will not hesitate to use its authority, stop the transition process and return to everyone at home. We don't want that to happen. Therefore, let us all be disciplined," Anies said. .

Anies is known to have extended the PSBB period in Jakarta starting today, June 5, until an undetermined time. However, this phase four PSBB is a transitional phase.

During June, Jakarta still imposed restrictions by implementing the COVID-19 prevention protocol, but with the easing of movement from the previous PSBB. The goal is that people can do activities to fulfill their daily needs.

In detail, activities that have been reopened from the social and cultural sectors are outdoor sports facilities, museums, galleries, libraries, parks, RPTRA, and beaches. Then, offices and houses of worship also reopened.

In addition, the types of business premises will be opened gradually starting on June 8. On Monday, June 8, the places of business that may be opened are restaurants (independent), industry, warehousing, shops, workshops, services, photocopies, and other supporting services. Meanwhile, on Saturday, June 13, MSMEs under the guidance of the DKI Provincial Government may be opened.

Then, on June 15, Anies only allowed the opening of markets, malls and shopping centers other than those that provide food. All these places are allowed to only accommodate 50 percent of the total existing capacity. On June 20, the theme park and zoo will open.

All sites that reopen must comply with regulations by reducing capacity by 50 percent. Also, they must implement the COVID-19 prevention protocol, such as always wearing a mask, maintaining a safe distance, and washing hands with soap.

However, there are activities that have not yet been decided to open. This activity will only be opened during the phase two transition period, after the DKI Provincial Government has reviewed the PSBB during the first phase of the transition.

These activities are religious activities with mass gatherings, schools, gyms, swimming pools, night markets, folk festivals, beauty clinics, salons, conference halls, wedding and circumcision receptions, cinemas, night entertainment, boutiques, and the like.

In addition, all public vehicles can resume operations with a storage capacity of 50 percent. The MRT and Transjakarta will operate in normal hours with short headways.

In private vehicles, motorbikes and cars are allowed to carry 100 percent of the capacity provided that all are one family. Meanwhile, in general, private vehicles can only accommodate 50 percent. Then, Anies allowed base ojek or online ojek to operate starting Monday, June 8.
