JAKARTA - West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil has again extended large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) in the Bogor, Depok and Bekasi (Bodebek) areas for the next four weeks or until July 2.

This decision was outlined by Ridwan in the West Java Governor's Decree Number 443 / Kep.304-Hukham / 2020 concerning the Proportional Enforcement of Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) in the Bodebek area (Bogor City, Bekasi, Depok, Bogor Regency, and Bekasi).

"The implementation of the PSBB will be proportionally adjusted to regional vigilance at the sub-district, village and sub-district levels in the form of Micro-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBM). It is also aligned with the DKI Jakarta government policy which has begun to enter the transitional PSBB throughout June," said Secretary of the Acceleration Task Force West Java's COVID-19 response to Daud Achmad in his written statement quoted on Friday, June 5.

With the signing of the decree, Bodebek residents are still required to comply with all applicable provisions in implementing the PSBB. This is because the success of proportional PSBB in this area must be supported by community discipline in implementing health protocols.

"That way, the chain of transmission of COVID-19 can be broken," said Daud.

Daud explained that in this circular, Ridwan Kamil asked the regents and mayors in Bodebek to determine the status of PSBB proportionally. Regents and mayors are asked to implement this PSBB according to the level of vigilance in each sub-district and village and village unit.

Then, the regents and mayors were also asked to make a series of preparations for the new normal phase. Including loosening up worship activities.

In making preparations for the new normal phase, each business actor or existing activity must be accompanied by a statement of ability to implement the health protocol. These regents and mayors are asked to be consistent and enforce sanctions as long as the proportional PSBB is carried out.

"District and city governments are asked to request the revocation of the PSBB and submit applications for the implementation of AKB (New Habit Adaptation) to the Minister of Health through the governor," said Daud.

However, the application for the revocation must be accompanied by a study in the area and a statement that is ready to control and secure the implementation of the new normal phase. "If the Minister of Health has not obtained the approval, the region concerned will continue to implement PSBB proportionally," he said.

In addition to signing the proportional PSBB, the Governor of West Java also issued a decision regarding the extension of the emergency response status for non-natural disasters in the COVID-19 pandemic in the West Java province through the West Java Governor's Decree Number 443 / Kep.290-Hukham / 2020 on Thursday, June 4 yesterday.
