JAKARTA - The Head of the National Counter-Terrorism Agency (BNPT) Commissioner General (Komjen) of Police Boy Rafli Amar garnered security coordination to prevent acts of terrorism at the Mandalika 2022 international motorcycle racing event.
"Increased surveillance is the focal point of security coordination in order to minimize potential disturbances from terrorist threats," said Head of BNPT Komjen Police Boy Rafli Amar as quoted by Antara, Sunday.
He said security meetings and coordination with various parties were part of the BNPT program to prevent acts of terrorism at the Mandalika MotoGP international motorcycle racing event.
"The prevention of acts of terrorism can be maximized if all parties work together," said Boy Rafli.
Boy conveyed that the Mandalika MotoGP has an important meaning for Indonesia, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. The Indonesian economy can revive from the tourism sector with the existence of MotoGP.
The world of tourism, he said, was paralyzed during the COVID-19 pandemic. With the MotoGP, the government is optimistic that tourism in NTB and other areas will bounce back so that the community's economy will improve. "The eyes of the world are now on Indonesia," he said.
He also appealed to the local community to participate in maintaining the comfort around the 2022 MotoGP implementation area. Thus, both the riders and spectators who attended felt comfortable while in NTB.
Meanwhile, MotoGP Field Commander Marshal TNI (Ret.) Hadi Tjahjanto revealed the importance of coordination with BNPT as the leading sector in countering terrorism.
"We agreed to continue to coordinate, evaluate and complete each stage so that the activity runs smoothly and safely," said Hadi Tjahjanto.
