Cheap Hotels In Central Jakarta Who Are Raided By Police For Prostitution Will Have Their Permits Revoked

JAKARTA - The process of imposing sanctions on one of the cheap hotels in Central Jakarta, precisely in Salemba, continues. The hotel, which was previously raided by the Directorate of Criminal Investigation of the Metro Jaya Police regarding cases of online prostitution, has been handled by the Jakarta Parekraf Service.

Head of the Central Jakarta Tourism and Creative Economy Sub-Department (Kasudin) Irwan said his party would immediately take action in accordance with the provisions of Pergub 18/2018, where tourism businesses that organize gambling, prostitution, immorality and other sanctions are no longer a warning.

"We immediately proposed revocation of the Tourism Business Registration Certificate (TDUP) to PTSP. We'll see what happens later." he told VOI, Thursday 12 August.

The Head of the Central Jakarta Tourism and Creative Economy (Parekraf) Sub-Department, Irwan ensured that the heaviest administrative sanctions would be given for violating the provisions in Pergub 18/2018.

"We from the government impose the most severe administrative sanctions in the form of revocation of TDUP. TDUP means they are no longer allowed to operate hotels. We are waiting for the proposal from the Tourism and Creative Economy Agency," he added when contacted.
