Based on the results of monitoring by the Netray analysis site, at least 7,083 warganet tweets on Twitter related to the buildup of potential passengers at Soetta Airport. Where the majority of netizens are disappointed with the physical distancing violations that occurred at the International Airport.
Moreover, the Minister of Transportation Budi Karya Sumadi, who had announced to provide a little relaxation of transportation regulations during the PSBB. Another opinion says that the government has not been serious in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic.
"The combination of the policies of the Indonesian government and the people who are opportunistic and reckless will make this country last safe from the COVID-19 pandemic," wrote the netizen in his tweet.
Not only netizens, this incident also drew criticism from various parties. Deputy Chairman of Commission V of the DPR RI, Nurhayati Monoarfa, criticized how airport security forces did not apply physical distancing or maintain a safe distance from one another.
