JAKARTA - The Minister of Home Affairs (Mendagri) Tito Karnavian has issued regulations regarding the implementation of the Mandalika MotoGP in Mandalika, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB).

These rules are contained in the Instruction of the Minister of Home Affairs (Inmendagri) Number 8 of 2022 regarding the prevention and control of COVID-19 at the Mandalika MotoGP at the Pertamina Mandalika International Street Circuit. The purpose of issuing this regulation is to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and is valid until March 21.

There are a number of rules that must be adhered to. One of them is related to the number of spectators who attended.

"The limit on the number of spectators is at most 100 thousand people with a maximum capacity of 10 percent for festival classes," said Director General of Regional Administration Development Safrizal ZA in a written statement, Saturday, February 5.

In addition, those who attend must be fully vaccinated and must show the results of a COVID-19 test. For spectators from outside the island of Lombok, they are required to bring a negative result of the H-1 PCR swab test. Meanwhile, those from the island are required to show a vaccine certificate and a negative PCR result 2x24 hours or an antigen test 1x24 hours.

This obligation, continued Safrizal, also applies to all racers, crew, and officials.

"All racers, crew and officials are required to get vaccinated twice and must bring a negative PCR Swab Test result before arrival (D-1) and do a PCR swab test when they arrive in Lombok," he said.

"This is a form of prevention and control that must be carried out by all parties so that this international event can take place properly," added Safrizal.

In the Minister of Home Affairs, local governments are asked to carry out supervision and persuasive enforcement. Especially supervising so that there are no activities to watch together or show off outside the circuit to prevent crowds from forming.

"The public must continue to adhere to the Health protocol, one of which is not putting up tents to watch together, and holding out outside the circuit to prevent crowds from forming," said Safrizal.

Not only that, the regional government is also required to speed up the delivery of the COVID-19 vaccine to its citizens until it reaches 80 percent for the first and second doses. "As well as accelerating further doses or boosters no later than H-1 week before the Mandalika MotoGP," he concluded.
