Given these conditions, I urge our residents, who are crossing the road, if disturbed, to use another route. ," said Santoso when contacted, Wednesday, July 13.
Santoso explained that the appeal he issued was aimed at avoiding traffic jams caused by Purwanto's children's reception.

A member of the Gerindra faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Purwanto also opened his voice on this notification. Purwanto emphasized that he did not want road closures around the location of his son's wedding reception.
"To avoid these potential obstacles, residents can take other alternatives. Then in the implementation of the event later, we have coordinated with the Transportation Agency, we agree, and I also don't want road closures," said Purwanto.
Purwanto also installed dozens of banners containing an appeal to residents to avoid Jalan RM Kahfi II and distributed at a number of points in the Srengseng Sawah Exit.
"We have carried out preventive measures by appealing to residents through banners that we have distributed at 20 points so that residents anticipate that these activities will cause potential traffic jams and disruption of activities.
