JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung admitted that he did not intend to relocate hundreds of fruit kiosk traders at the Kramat Jati Central Market, East Jakarta, which burned this morning.

Pramono revealed that traders still want to sell at the original stall. Therefore, the DKI Provincial Government will immediately repair the building that was burned so that traders can return to occupy it.

"For the peddlers, because this is not a major fire, we will renovate it soon. What is clear is that they will continue to sell in Kramat Jati, because they also do not want to move anywhere," said Pramono in Senen, Central Jakarta, Monday, December 15.

Based on the report he received, the scale of the fire at the market located on Jalan Raya Bogor was not very large.

The fire was quickly overcome by firefighters, so it did not spread to other buildings. However, the DKI Provincial Government will provide assistance to traders whose kiosks were on fire.

"It just so happens that the loss is not big and then there are no victims. It's just that it's mainly bananas and papaya, because that's where the banana and papaya market is. Yes, of course, we will provide assistance for that," explained Pramono.

It is known that the Kramat Jati Central Market fire occurred on Monday, December 15 at around 07.24 WIB. When the fire started to flare up, traders and residents around panicked. A number of traders tried to save some of their merchandise.
