JAKARTA - The revocation of business licenses for 12 Holywings outlets in Jakarta by DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan on Monday, June 26, yesterday, was like a snowball.
Apart from having an impact on increasing unemployment rates or layoffs for Holywings workers, this policy is also considered selective.
Moreover, with the recent decision to close and revoke Holywings' operational license in Jakarta, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government is also considered negligent and weak, because it was only taken after the promotion of alcoholic beverages in the names of Muhammad and Maria appeared on social media.
Public Policy Observer from Trisakti University, Trubus Rahadiansyah, assessed that the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government's policies tend to be selective and discriminatory.
This means, continued Trubus, if indeed a place like that (Holywings) violates, Holywings is a tourist service place in the category, there is Pergub 18. Trubus continued, according to the provisions there, for example, alcoholic drinks should not be drunk on the spot, they should be taken home direct.
This means, Trubus said, the license is a retailer's license. But since he sells drinks with more than 6 percent alcohol, he should have a direct sales letter of type B or C.
"But it turns out that all of this has never been audited by the DKI Provincial Government," Trubus said when confirmed by VOI, Wednesday, June 29.
Trubus stated that there should be two or three agencies responsible for monitoring Holywings. There is the Tourism and Creative Economy Agency, the UMKM Office and the PTSP, the three agencies should be responsible for auditing.
"But they didn't do it, so it was like there was omission. After there was marketing about Muhammad and Maria, only now are making other improvements and closures," he said.
Trubus said the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government's policies tend to be discriminatory and seem selective.
"This all stems from the provincial government's own policies which tend to be discriminatory, selective. When there is a problem, it is handled, even though the provincial government should have carried out guidance, not destruction," he said.
Trubus said that Holywings was originally a restaurant, not a discotheque or entertainment venue.
"Weak supervision, weak audit, what should be evaluated every year. They have been open everywhere. How come they have been running smoothly, meaning that so far there has been omission or there are certain individuals who have benefited from the Holywings," he stressed.
Previously, the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan, on Monday 27 June 2022 issued a decision to close and revoke Holywings' operational permit in Jakarta. In the revocation of business licenses for 12 Holywings outlets in Jakarta, one thing that is in the spotlight is the fate of its employees.
In the @holywingsindonesia Instagram account on June 26, Holywings management stated that there are 3,000 employees plus their families who depend on work as employees of the company.
