JAKARTA - The Tourism and Creative Economy Sub-Department (Sudin Parekraf) noted that there are 130 hotels, apartments and inns in Central Jakarta where residents undergo self-isolation (Isoman).

Head of the Central Jakarta Tourism and Creative Economy Sub-department, Shinta Nindyawati, said that the 130 Isoman sites are spread across eight sub-districts in Central Jakarta.

"Regarding the number of places where Isoman is currently located, there are 130 points. What determines whether the place deserves to be Isoman is not at PHRI, the COVID-19 Task Force, BNPB and the Ministry of Health," Shinta said when contacted by reporters, Monday, March 7.

Shinta said residents who underwent Isoman had to spend their own money. This is because the central government no longer pays for Isoman's place in 130 hotels, apartments and inns in Central Jakarta.

"What is still free is only at the Wisma Atlet COVID-19 Emergency Hospital (RSDC), Kemayoran in Central Jakarta," he said.

Meanwhile, the number of residents at Isoman's place in Central Jakarta has decreased. The decline has occurred since last week until now.
