YOGYAKARTA - After evaluating the safety of the Coffee In The Sky Teras Kaca ride, Nguluran Beach, Gunungkidul, the Yogyakarta Special Region Government (DIY) has decided to stop the vehicle's operational equipment.

The Mobile Crane used on the vehicle is intended to transport goods, not to transport people. Hence the question of safety factor.

DIY Secretary R. Kadarmanta Baskara Aji in the Kepatihan complex, Yogyakarta revealed, although the ideas and creativity generated by the manager were very good, safety was the main point that must be adhered to.

If it does not meet the requirements as evidenced by the issuance of a permit, then the tour cannot be continued.

Aji explained, from the results of the inspection, it was known that the mobile crane used by the organizers was a tool rented from outside the city. For this reason, more and more things must be done to check, including its origin and operational use, it must be seen whether it is still valid or not.

"The information we received, the use of the crane does not have a permit, its use is not in accordance with the specifications of the goods, of course there must also be someone who guarantees its safety. So, let's stop until the requirements, especially visitor safety certification, are guaranteed. We must guarantee the safety and comfort of tourists so that we can still be trusted as organizers of comfortable and safe tourist destinations," said Aji, quoted from a written statement on the Instagram account @humasjogja, Friday, January 7.
