JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta, Ahmad Riza Patria, said that the DKI Provincial Government will take strict action against all places of business, from restaurants to offices that violate health protocols.

This is in response to the sanction of freezing Holywings Kemang's business license during PPKM or during the pandemic because of repeated violations.

"Anyone will be prosecuted, we have no doubts about the backing behind them, we will take action for restaurants, cafes, office buildings, and so on. We will take action against any cafe, restaurant, office with a backing," said Riza at Balai DKI City, Central Jakarta, Monday, September 6th.

Because of that, Riza warned all places of business to comply with PPKM regulations in Jakarta. These rules range from capacity limitations to operating hours.

"We ask all restaurants, cafes, to be disciplined even if there is an easing. Even though they are open, we ask to continue to pay attention to health protocols related to operating hours and capacity," said Riza.

For information, this evening the DKI Jakarta Satpol PP visited Holywings Kemang, South Jakarta to impose sanctions on the suspension of business licenses. This sanction was applied because Holywings Kemang allowed crowds of customers, violated the maximum capacity of 25 percent, and operated after 21.00 WIB.

With the suspension of permits, Holywings Kemang is prohibited from operating until the PPKM period in Jakarta ends. Meanwhile, the government will continue to implement PPKM during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In addition, Holywings Kemang will also be subject to a fine of IDR 50 million. This is stated in DKI Governor Regulation Number 2 of 2021.

However, after the DKI Provincial Government evaluated the record of history of violating health protocols. Apparently, Holywings Kemang has committed three violations. Finally, the suspension of the business license was granted.
