JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan signed Regional Regulation (Perda) Number 2 of 2020 concerning the prevention of Corona Virus Desease 2019 (COVID-19). There are rules that contain sanctions for violators related to COVID-19.

"Yes, (Perda) Number 2 (2020)," said Head of the Legal Bureau Yayan Yuhanah quoted from Antara, Sunday, November 22.

This regional regulation on handling COVID-19 in DKI was signed by Anies on November 12. After being passed, the regional regulations regarding the handling of COVID-19 in DKI can be implemented.

"Yes (it has already been in effect), but we are still drafting the governor's governorship, what are the technicalities. As long as there is no new governor's regulation, the old governor's regulation is still valid for one month," said Anies.

The ratification of the regional regulation on handling COVID-19 was carried out in a plenary meeting chaired by the Chairperson of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Prasetio Edi Marsudi, at the DKI Jakarta DPRD building.

The meeting was not attended by DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan, but was represented by Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Ahmad Riza Patria.

During the meeting, the Chairperson of the DKI Jakarta DPRD asked the DPRD members' approval for the Raperda to become a Perda containing 11 chapters and 35 articles.

"To the plenary meeting forum, can the Raperda on Combating COVID-19 be approved as a regional regulation?" said Prasetio who was answered in agreement by the board members.

After this approval, the draft regional regulation which was approved by the DKI Jakarta DPRD was symbolically submitted to Riza as Deputy Governor.

There are several important things discussed in the Perda. For example, the involvement of the DPRD in the status of large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) in DKI Jakarta.

The involvement of the DKI DPRD in deciding the continuation of the PSBB is stated in paragraph 3.

"The policies for implementing the PSBB and / or policies required in the implementation of health quarantine in the DKI Jakarta Province as referred to in paragraph (2) are stipulated by taking into account the suggestions and considerations of the DKI Jakarta Provincial DPRD," wrote the Regional Regulation on COVID-19 Management.

Article 29 of Perda No.2 of 2020 concerning the Prevention of COVID-19 states that "every person who deliberately refuses to have a Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction or Molecular Rapid Test and / or a supporting examination organized by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government will be punished with a maximum fine of Rp. 5 million".

Meanwhile, Article 30 states "Every person who deliberately refuses to be treated and / or vaccinated against COVID-19, will be punished with a maximum fine of Rp. 5 million".
