"For this reason, taking into account the last few days, COVID-19 still tends to increase, the implementation of Nataru also coincides with the provision of school holidays and the trend of community mobility is high, then it should be well regulated so that its implementation will be considered in the future to pay attention to safety, comfort and health," he said.

Budi said that the Christmas and New Year Transportation Posts will be open for 16 days for the authorities to start being alert in monitoring community mobility. "We realize that the success of this implementation is impossible if there is no good coordination and collaboration.
