Thousands Of Animal Lovers Support Revocation Of Prohibition Of Carrying Animals In The CFD Area

JAKARTA - The petition for lifting the ban on bringing pets into the Motor Vehicle Free Day (HBKB) or Car Free Day (CFD) area has begun to emerge. The petition was carried out following strong protests from dog lovers (DOG Lovers) and the Jakarta City Citizens Forum (Fakta).

"On Wednesday night, October 12, 1,128 people signed the online petition," said Chairman of the Jakarta City Citizens Forum (Fakta), Azas Tigor Nainggolan when confirmed by VOI, Thursday, October 13.

Azas Tigor urged the DKI Provincial Government to immediately lift the ban on bringing pets to HBKB and CFD.

"Let's support and sign this petition to fight for efforts to lift the ban on bringing pets to the Motor Vehicle Free Day (HBKB) activities," he said.

Previously, it was reported that the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government's ban on bringing pets to Motor Vehicle Free Day (HBKB) and Car Free Day (CFD) continued to be opposed by the Chairman of the Jakarta Citizens Forum (Fakta) Azas Tigor Nainggolan.

The prohibition on bringing animals to CFD is regulated in the Decree (SK) of the Head of Transportation of Jakarta No: e-0077 of 2022 concerning Technical Guidelines for the Implementation of HBKB in Jakarta which was issued on June 22, 2022.

Azas Tigor assessed that the ban on the Kadishub Decree was misguided and legally flawed because the Kadishub Decree was not included in the source of Indonesia's national law.
