He and a number of senior officials from the Kepulauan Anambas Police went down to directly monitor community activities at a number of tourist attractions on Saturday (27/12) in Arung Hijau.
"Nataru holidays are synonymous with increased community activities, especially at tourist attractions. Therefore, we ensure that security is running at its maximum so that people can have a safe and comfortable vacation," he said.
On that occasion, Gusti took advantage of the visit to hold a dialogue with tourism managers and the community and reminded them to maintain safety, as well as pay attention to weather conditions during holidays in the open air.
