JAKARTA - In recent times, live streaming in iconic locations has become a trend among content creators. Many of them choose an aesthetic and crowded place to attract the attention of the audience.
One of the favorite locations in Palembang is the Ampera Bridge, which is often used as a setting for singing, dancing, or just talking to the audience directly on social media. This activity is generally carried out at night when the city's atmosphere is starting to calm down and the bridge lights are turning on beautifully, creating an interesting visual background for digital content.
However, this habit is now under the spotlight of the Palembang City Government. Through the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP), the government officially prohibits live streaming activities on the Ampera Bridge because it is considered disturbing public order, especially vehicle traffic around the area.
According to the Head of General Control Division of the Palembang Satpol PP, Cherly Panggar Besi, the steps to disband content creators began the night before.
"This is a direct concern from the Mayor of Palembang which was conveyed through the Regional Secretary (Sekda) of Palembang City," he said, as quoted by ANTARA.
He conveyed that live streaming activities, especially those involving actions such as singing or dancing on bridges, were considered to have the potential to pose a risk of safety and slow down traffic flow.

Cherly emphasized that the government does not oppose people's creative activities on social media. On the contrary, the City Government supports the citizens' creativity as long as it is done wisely and does not endanger other road users.
He appealed to content creators to be more selective in choosing the shooting location, in order to maintain public safety and order.
For those who still want to create live streaming content on Ampera Bridge, the government recommends that these activities be carried out outside of peak hours, for example after 00.00 WIB, when vehicle traffic begins to collapse.
As part of efforts to maintain security in public spaces, Satpol PP will continue to carry out routine patrols, including in strategic and iconic areas such as the Ampera Bridge, to ensure that all residents' activities run in an orderly and safe manner.
