JAKARTA - The Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD met a number of artists such as, Sujiwo Tejo, Butet Kertaradjasa, Didik Nini Thowok, Agus Noor and several others. The meeting took place at Warung Bu Ageng, which also belongs to Butet Karteredjasa, in Mantrijeron, Yogyakarta.
To the artists, Mahfud asked to participate in campaigning for health protocols to the public. According to him, economic activity is indeed important, but implementing health protocols using masks, washing hands and maintaining distance must also be done.
"Now it is starting to show that people's economic activities have started to move, social and political activities are moving, but the health protocol is not so balanced," said Mahfud MD, Sunday, August 30.
Mahfud assessed that the involvement of artists and humanists in implementing health protocols is very effective, because it is done in a persuasive way.
"There are still certain areas that do not wear masks, it should be disciplined through persuasive methods, so I go through artists and cultural observers because artists and cultural observers have a more persuasive approach," said Mahfud.
After the dialogue, the Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD also handed over 2000 masks to Yogya artists and cultural observers.
