MALANG - Malang Mayor Sutiaji and Malang City Government officials are in the spotlight on social media timelines. Because of this, the traveling group of these officials allegedly forced their way into the Kondangmerak Beach tourist area in Malang Regency.
This incident then went viral on social media because this area was still declared closed during the PPKM Level 3.
For this, Malang City Government apologized and promised to comply with the current legal procedures.
"We sincerely apologize for this incident. We will follow the existing legal process," said Malang City Secretary Erik Setyo Santoso to reporters, Monday, September 20.
According to him, there was a misunderstanding because his party had applied for a permit 2 days earlier. It's just that the signal may be constrained so that the permission message is not delivered.
“So there was a miscommunication because of the signal, and also a miscoordination between the guard officers. After yesterday's dialogue, the officers had actually been given a 60-minute transit permit. That's why we take a break and load the bike onto the pickup," explained Erik.
Therefore, the Malang City Government emphasized that there was no element of coercion to enter the beach. A number of procedures have been carried out, but it turns out to be controversial.
“Actually, we have done everything, it's just a dilemma process. Apart from that, we sincerely apologize to the management of Kondangmerak, Forkopimcam and the public regarding this incident," he concluded.
