JAKARTA - Deputy Chairperson of the DKI Jakarta DPRD from the PKS faction, Khoirudin, responded to the move taken by the Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono who initiated a hand arrest operation (OTT) using drones to residents who littered. According to Khoirudin, rather than using drones, it is more effective if monitoring people's behavior in disposing of waste is monitored through surveillance cameras or CCTV placed at certain points. "It is better to use an attached camera or CCTV at every vulnerable point that can monitor 24 hours, while the drone is only for a certain time," Khoirudin said in a short message, Tuesday, November 8. Meanwhile, in OTT littering using drones that have been run by the ranks of the DKI Provincial Government, Khoirudin sees that there needs to be a periodic evaluation process. "One or two months it is evaluated whether the effectiveness is good or not. If it is good, it is continued by making rules. It is the same with ETLE which makes it easier for the police to ticket on roads and state and regional treasury is also included according to the rules," he said. The DKI Provincial Government held an OTT using drones to search for people who littered when CFD was in the Sudirman-Thamrin area on Sunday, November 6. The Provincial-level HBKB enforcement post in Sudirman Thamrin was held in 7 locations, namely, in front of Gedung Jaya, Jalan Sumenep, in front of the Hotel Indonesia Kempinski, Fly Over Statue Sudirman, in front of the Chase Plaza Building, CIMB Building and FX Sudirman Mall. A total of 194 supervisors were deployed. Head of the DKI Jakarta Environmental Agency, Asep Kuswanto, revealed that OTT was carried out conventionally with a drone belonging to the DKI Kominfotik Service. "We use drones to take action against violators who litter at the Provincial-level HBKB activities, city-level HBKB, and identified locations are often found by residents who litter," Asep told reporters, Sunday, November 6. Based on today's OTT waste activity, there are 15 violators who were subject to forced money fines. The DKI Provincial Government has collected a total fine of IDR 710,000 and 4 violators who have been sentenced to social sanctions to collect garbage at the location. “This activity will be routinely carried out in the future according to the direction of the Governor of DKI Jakarta, ” Asep continued.
