Khofifah said that this limited PTM was held in 20 districts/cities in East Java that had implemented PPKM Level 2 and 3, while in the PPKM level 4 area, limited PTM had not been held.

"Today is the last day of PPKM level 4 throughout Indonesia, and it will be evaluated this afternoon, if there is an evaluation, we will re-evaluate it," said the number one person in the East Java Provincial Government.

Another mandatory requirement, continued Wahid, is that teachers and educators must be vaccinated.

"Alhamdulillah, for teachers in East Java, 88 percent have been vaccinated. Only 12 percent have not been vaccinated because of several problems, such as high blood pressure. There are still relatively few students, only 12 percent are vaccinated," he said.

"Therefore, the Governor's mother gave directions to regents/mayors throughout East Java to carry out vaccinations for students," said WW, his nickname.

The former Head of the East Java Transportation Service also said that the implementation of limited PTM was carried out simultaneously starting today, but based on reports received from the district/city service, for elementary and junior high school levels, only about 90 percent had done PTM.

"The 10 percent of regents/mayors are still coordinating with the local Health Office. PTM will be adjusted to regional developments, which if a certain area turns red then it is stopped, and vice versa. There must be a recommendation from the local COVID-19 Task Force and permission from the main parent, " he said.
