SAMARINDA - The East Kalimantan Provincial Police Pamong Praja Unit (Satpol PP) together with the Samarinda City Satpol PP dismantled the practice of disguised prostitution disguised as coffee shops and cafes at a number of border points in the city.
English:
Head of Public Safety and Order of the East Kalimantan Provincial Satpol PP, Edwin Noviansyah Rachim, said his party found a shift in the modus operandi of prostitution in the Samarinda-Kutai Kartanegara border area.
English:
Similar modus was also found in a number of ex-localizations, such as Loa Hui and Solong, which have now turned into cafes.
English:
"We found a shift in modus on the Samarinda-Kutai Kartanegara border road. The same thing also happened in ex-localizations such as Loa Hui and Solong, which have now changed into cafes, but inside they still pack prostitution services to employ minors," said Edwin in Samarinda, Antara, Tuesday, December 16.
English:
One of the prominent findings is in an area known as Kopi Pangku on the Samarinda-Kutai Kartanegara axis. At this location, many buildings with permits for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (UMKM) actually operate as nightclubs that do not comply with their provisions.
English:
According to Edwin, the phenomenon of misuse of permits issued through the one-stop licensing system or online single submission (OSS) requires stricter field supervision and verification. This is necessary so that licensing documents are not only administrative formalities.
English:
Edwin emphasized that enforcement of the rules in this matter requires synergy across agencies and related regional organizations (OPD). Satpol PP, he said, cannot work alone to solve complex social problems.

Meanwhile, the Head of the Samarinda City Satpol PP, Anis Siswantini, emphasized his party's commitment to maintaining public safety and order in accordance with the mandate of the Samarinda City Regional Regulation Number 4 of 2025 concerning the Implementation of Public Safety and Order.

He ensured that the joint operation to control public diseases would be carried out continuously with the application of strict sanctions in the form of minor offenses (tipiring) for violators of local regulations.
English:
"To prevent repeated violations, we continue to carry out strict post-permits with the placement of Operation Control Assistance personnel in each sub-district to monitor the development of the situation on the ground," said Anis.
