JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta is again included as a Level 2 PPKM area. This decision is contained in the Instruction of the Minister of Home Affairs (Inmendagri) Number 1 of 2022 concerning PPKM (Community Activity Restrictions) Levels 3, 2, and 1 in Java-Bali.

Regarding this increase, the spokesman for the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, Jodi Mahardi said that this was not due to the spread of the Omicron variant of COVID-19.

"Not because of Omicron", said Jodi when contacted by VOI, Tuesday, January 3.

Jodi said the increase in PPKM levels in Jakarta was due to a decrease in the number of case tracking. Thus, the government decided to include this area in level 2.

"Because of the decrease in tracing in Jabodetabek", he said.

Apart from Jakarta, from the available data, several agglomeration areas also show the same thing, namely Solo Raya, Malang Raya, Greater Semarang, Greater Bandung, Yogyakarta Special Region, and Bali.

For information, PPKM in Java and Bali was again extended for two weeks until January 17, 2022. In the Inmendagri signed by the Minister of Home Affairs (Mendagri), Tito Karnavian, it was stated that the agglomeration area including DKI Jakarta was included in the area that implemented PPKM Level 2.

Whereas three weeks earlier, DKI Jakarta together with Tangerang City, Tangerang Regency, South Tangerang City, Bogor City, Depok City, and Bekasi Regency implemented PPKM Level 1. Meanwhile, Bekasi City and Bogor Regency were still at Level 2.
