JAKARTA - Social Minister Tri Rismaharini (Risma) called himself the loudest person when dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic while still serving as Mayor of Surabaya. This was conveyed when he was a speaker at the 2021 National Coordination Meeting for Disaster Management.
"I remember when I was mayor, friends of BNPB (National Disaster Management Agency) memorized, I handled this pandemic the hardest. Maybe no one was as harsh as I was," Risma said as quoted from a broadcast broadcast on the BNPB YouTube account, Tuesday, 9 March.
He explained that when he was the mayor of Surabaya, he often held operations to catch health protocol violators. Not infrequently, this activity lasts until midnight.
"At 12 at night I still caught the children in several places where they did not carry out health protocols," said Risma.
This PDI-P politician said, not infrequently, the children were angry when they were arrested when they gathered without health protocols.
"But then I explained, son, you're still strong. But if you get hit then you go home and infect your parents. If anything happens to your parents because you're older than you, what are you like?" he said recounting the incident. "Immediately they, 'yes, sorry ma'am, sorry'," he added.
With this kind of effort and a variety of other activities, Risma said that the number of COVID-19 in the City of Heroes could eventually decline. "What does that mean? I can prove that SBY has drastically decreased, which he said is red black, dark red gradually yellow," he said.
"I lived when I was yellow, I went to Jakarta," said Risma.
Furthermore, he said, because of the COVID-19 pandemic he had also succeeded in teaching many Small Micro and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and grocery store traders to conduct online or online transactions to advance their businesses.
"So that is what God teaches, that behind God giving trials, there must be something that makes us progress and be better," he concluded.
