JAKARTA - Metro Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Pol Fadil Imran said the implementation of the crowd free night policy at a number of locations in Jakarta was running smoothly. The place that is usually the center of New Year's celebrations by setting off fireworks is deserted.
"In the capital city, it is generally controlled and safe. Eleven crowd free night points are going well," said Fadil Imran to reporters at the HI Roundabout area, Saturday, January 1.
Fadil thanked the entire community and residents of Jakarta for their cooperation in staying at home during New Year's Eve.
In addition, he also expressed his appreciation to regional heads who are in the Jabodetabek agglomeration area, so that the potential for crowds in Jakarta can be controlled.
"Hopefully until tomorrow morning, we can control the situation," he said, quoted from ANTARA.
On Friday night until 23.30 WIB, joint officers from elements of the Police, TNI, and Satpol PP remained on standby to support the implementation of crowd free night even though the traffic situation was quite light.
Traffic on a number of Central Jakarta roads, such as Jalan Medan Merdeka Timur, Cathedral Road to the Tugu Farmer's Circle and the Horse Statue looked deserted. The National Police deployed thousands of personnel who were deployed for Christmas and New Year's security.
