JAKARTA - The deputy regent of Central Lampung, Ardito Wijaya, was reported to the police for violating health protocols while attending a celebration.

The chairman of the PKS DPP, Mardani Ali Sera, supports the reporting of Deputy Regent Ardito to the police. He asked all parties to also focus on building awareness of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"The process is still ongoing, but what everyone needs to be aware of is that the conditions on the ground need to be considered," said Mardani, Monday, June 28.

The member of Commission II of the DPR assessed that the Central Lampung Deputy Regent's mistake was also encouraged by the public's invitation to dance at the celebration venue.

"The fault is yes. But the error is relative. The request has an intention, an invitation from the villagers to an atmosphere of joy, not only the content but also the context," he said.

Therefore, Mardani asked to focus on the Health Quarantine Law to build public awareness of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The legislator from DKI Jakarta then alluded to the case of Habib Rizieq's prokes violation, which according to him was also the wrong focus of prosecution.

"This is evidence of the wrong direction in handling the pandemic. The socialization process has not been completed. There will be many victims if the focus is on taking action. HRS is an example of victims of misfocusing," he said.

Mardani added, the application of the Health Quarantine Law should be to build social strength to be resilient in facing an awareness-based pandemic. Not prioritizing the law.

"The virus will 'beat up' the community because of government policies that are not focused and not based on science. Time and energy are running out to punish people while the victims of the pandemic are increasing," said Mardani.
