JAKARTA - The government has decided to open cinema operations in the extension of PPKM in Java and Bali. However, cinemas are only opened in areas that apply PPKM Level 3 and 2.

Then, the opening of the film screening location was also carried out with a capacity limitation of 50 percent of visitors. This was conveyed by the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan.

"The opening of cinemas with a maximum capacity of 50 percent in cities (which implement PPKM) Level 3 and Level 2," said Luhut in a virtual press conference, Monday, September 13.

Then, cinemagoers must have been vaccinated and use the PeduliLindung application as a screening for entry to the location.

"Only the Green category can enter the cinema area," said Luhut.

For information, the government decided to extend the PPKM in Java and Bali from September 14 to 20, 2021. In the extension of the PPKM for the next week, many regions experienced a decrease in the level of assessment.

"In the implementation of PPKM that was carried out until last week, the government finally succeeded in lowering the province of Bali to Level 3. So from 11 cities/districts level 4 last week, today the number has decreased to only 3 cities/regencies only," said Luhut.

In addition, Luhut emphasized that the government will continue to implement PPKM for a long time. This answers many people's questions.

"The government confirms that it will continue to apply this PPKM Level in all areas of Java and Bali and evaluate it every week to reduce the number of confirmed cases and not to repeat the same incident in the future," he explained.
