Agus said that although there was an easing of the PPKM, residents were asked not to be careless when shopping. Take good care of valuables, and continue to follow health protocols (prokes) because COVID-19 is not over.
"We also have CCTV in every corner and floor. We deploy hundreds of officers to provide a sense of security to residents who shop," he said.

Syania (34) said the same thing. The white woman was happy with the government's policy of providing relaxation for citizens to shop. With this easing, he and his family immediately went to Tanah Abang Market.
