PALU - The City Government of Palu, Central Sulawesi has decided to abolish the fine of Rp. 2 million for business actors who are proven to have violated the rules regarding the Implementation of Restrictions on Community Activities (PPKM).
Palu Mayor Hadianto Rasyid said that the sanctions for business actors who violated the PPKM rules were replaced with social sanctions.
Business actors who are found to have violated the PPKM rules, he explained, will then be subject to sanctions for providing assistance to residents affected by COVID-19 in Palu City.
"The assistance is up to you, we will arrange it later but it will not be burdensome. It doesn't mean that the sanctions are not considered heavy, then business actors violate a lot," he said, quoted by Antara, Wednesday, July 14
The Palu City Government, confirmed by Mayor Hadianto, will return the fines that have been collected from business actors who violate PPKM rules.
According to data from the Palu city government, there have been 14 business actors in Palu City who were fined Rp. 2 million each for violating the PPKM rules. The Rp28 million collected from the fine was put into the regional treasury.
The mayor said the city government would continue to limit the operational time of business premises until 21.00 WITA and carry out operations to enforce health protocols.
He also explained that fines for residents who do not wear masks will also be replaced with social sanctions.
"Sanctions that do not use masks are also replaced with social witnesses as well," he said.
