SURABAYA - Mayor of Surabaya, Eri Cahyadi, stated that the City of Heroes, East Java, currently has the status of Enforcement of Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) level 2, so it is time to revive the economy.
"Alhamdulillah, the agglomeration area of Greater Surabaya has returned to Level 2, this is the time to revive the economy that has already been implemented," said Mayor Eri Cahyadi, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, March 8.
Surabaya entered PPKM Level 2 based on the Instruction of the Minister of Home Affairs (Inmendagri) Number 15 of 2022 concerning the Enforcement of Restrictions on Community Activities (PPKM) Level 4, Level 3, Level 2, Level 1 in Java and Bali.
Therefore, he continued, the Surabaya City Government remains determined to improve the economy in the City of Heroes.
"The decline to PPKM Level 2 is seen from the number of patients treated at the hospital, then the number of deaths," he said.
Referring to Inmendagri No. 15 of 2022, he said, the assessment of the agglomeration area was calculated as one unit and for the assessment of indicators for adjusting public health efforts and social restrictions in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, Eri said, his party reminded that the City of Surabaya is the capital city of East Java Province and cannot limit services or treatments for COVID-19 patients who have Surabaya and non-Surabaya ID cards.
"Because, if the regional hospital is not able to handle it, it will be referred to the city of Surabaya," he said.
Regarding the implementation of PPKM Level 2 in the education sector, namely the application of Face-to-face Learning (PTM) in the city of Surabaya, Eri said that he would conduct an evaluation for the next 3-4 days by discussing with Pentahelix and the Surabaya City Education Office (Dispendik).

As for the tourism sector at the opening of the city park, Eri admitted that he would conduct an evaluation for the next 3-4 days with the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), Satpol PP and Surabaya City Linmas.
