The Health Office has prepared the necessary doctors at the lodging location and the Education Office to prepare school children to welcome the delegation groups from various countries.

"Every office building in Jakarta can also enliven it by installing a banner or banner, so that we present the excitement together," said Heru.

The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government (Pemprov) also plans to implement a work from home (WFH) policy to make the implementation of the ASEAN Foreign Ministers' Meeting (AMM)/Post Ministerial Meetings (PMC) and the 2023 ASEAN Summit successful in Jakarta.

The WFH discourse at the time of the ASEAN Summit will be discussed further with the Metro Jaya Police Chief Inspector General Karyoto and the Jaya/Jayakarta Kodam Commander Maj. Gen. Mohamad Hasan.

Cecep hopes that the community can be well socialized and support the series of ASEAN Summit events.

"We agreed, God willing, from July, thanks to June, socialization activities can be massive in the midst of the community that we will do together and simultaneously. Thus, there is a complete sense of ownership from the community towards ASEAN activities or a series of meetings in DKI Jakarta," said Cecep.
