BEKASI - Hundreds of residents of South Cikarang District, Bekasi Regency, West Java, forcibly closed an entertainment venue under the guise of a restaurant called The Sky Restaurant and Bistro in Ruko Trivium, Jalan Kemang Raya Number 32 Lippo Cikarang. "Alhamdulillah, today there is a conveyation of the aspirations of residents regarding entertainment venues in The Sky Restaurant and Bistro. We convey and urge you to return to the original intention, namely a restaurant," said South Cikarang sub-district head Agus Dahlan in Cikarang, Monday, January 23. Agus represents hundreds of residents holding an audience with the management of The Sky Restaurant and Bistro who are finally willing to permanently close the place suspected of carrying out night entertainment activities at the restaurant. Please invite the management of the place of business to continue to operate fully according to the previous permits in the form of restaurant businesses.

"For restaurants, please go ahead, but for THM (night entertainment venues) there must be requirements met," he said, quoted by Antara. He ensured that this closure was an initiative of the management based on the results of an audience with representatives of local community leaders considering that the sealing authority was in the hands of the Bekasi Regency Government. The management representation of The Sky Restaurant and Bistro Harun said the closure of this place of business was based on the aspirations of residents involving kiai, religious leaders, and religious scholars. "We from the management of The Sky Restaurant and Bistro take conclusions to close the 'rolling door' first. Maybe because there are processes that have been passed. The point is that we from the management decide to close it to maintain conducive, security, and order in our joint area," he said.

One Ade resident said this demonstration started with the public's rejection of activities at the place of business which often caused noise to disturb local residents. "Residents refuse activities in that place, every night they always make noise until the morning, making us uncomfortable, that's why we expressly reject the operation of the place," he said.
