JAKARTA - A number of rules were adjusted after the Implementation of Level 4 Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) was extended from 26 July to 2 August. One of them is that people can eat on the spot when they are in a tent stall, but it is limited to 20 minutes.
This was conveyed by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) when announcing the extension of the restriction activities which ended today.
"Tent stalls, street vendors, hawker stalls and the like that have their place of business in an open place are allowed to open with strict health protocols until 20.00 and a maximum meal time for visitors of 20 minutes," Jokowi said in a video description uploaded on the Presidential Secretariat's YouTube account, Sunday , August 25.
Then street vendors, grocery stores, voucher agents or outlets, barbershops, laundry, hawkers, small workshops, vehicle washers, and other similar small businesses are allowed to open with strict health protocols until 21.00.
Next, the people's market that sells basic needs for daily needs may open as usual with strict health protocols. Meanwhile, people's markets that do not sell basic necessities are allowed to open with a maximum of 50 percent of visitors and operate until 15.00.
Some of these easing could begin on Monday, July 26. Later, the relevant ministers will provide more details regarding the opening of this activity.
As previously reported, President Jokowi said that the decision to relax was made after considering health, economic and social aspects.
In addition, the former Governor of DKI Jakarta also said that there had been a trend of improving the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. This can be seen from the decrease in the number of positive cases, the bed occupancy rate (BOR), to the positivity rate.
Even so, he reminded all parties to remain careful in responding to the improvement trend so that the increase in COVID-19 cases did not occur amid the onslaught of the Delta variant virus.
