JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung highlighted the phenomenon of entrants entering Jakarta after the Lebaran homecoming season. Pramono emphasized that in his leadership, Jakarta is not closed to migrants.

"Actually, Jakarta will not close itself, but Jakarta will improve so that people who come to Jakarta are really aware of this choice which is not easy to work in Jakarta," said Pramono at DKI Jakarta City Hall, Monday, March 3.

Pramono assessed that every Eid Al-Fitr was over, many residents outside the area came to Jakarta to settle down to find livelihoods.

"Because after all, Jakarta is still an attraction for anyone who is looking for jobs," said Pramono.

However, the former Cabinet Secretary did not deny that the rise of entrants entering Jakarta brought its own problems for population management.

Pramono admitted that he had not yet decided what program he would run to deal with the phenomenon of newcomers after Eid al-Fitr 1446 H. What is clear, Jakarta is still open to immigrants.

"Jakarta under my leadership must be open, more friendly, but also with firmness. So we haven't formulated it yet because tomorrow we will close it for it, tomorrow is Tuesday," he explained.

The DKI Jakarta Population and Civil Registration Service (Disdukcapil) noted that in 2020, the number of new arrivals reached 24,043 people.

Then in 2021, the number of immigrants is 20,046 people. The number of arrivals had increased in 2022 by 27,478. Then, in 2023, there were 25,918 entrants entering Jakarta.
