JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan said he would focus on completing the control of COVID-19. This was conveyed in response to his term of office which will end in 2022 or another year.

"Let's just finish this COVID-19 control. Because at this point (COVID-19, ed) is the most basic problem in Jakarta," Anies told reporters in Jakarta, Saturday, September 4.

If this virus problem can be handled properly, then all aspects of people's lives, especially the economy, can move again.

"Once the economy moves back, hopefully our welfare can recover soon," said Anies.

Meanwhile, when asked about his future political steps, the former Minister of Education and Culture (Mendikbud) was reluctant to answer further. He asked all parties to focus first on the problem of handling the pandemic.

"Let's talk about vaccines first, okay? Thank you," he said.
