The rise of illegal shadow markets in Central Jakarta (Jakpus) makes it difficult for traders in official traditional markets. For example, street vendors (PKL) in front of Nangka Market, Jalan Kalibaru Timur, Utan Panjang Village, Kemayoran, Central Jakarta. In this market, hundreds of illegal street vendors control the sidewalks.
In fact, Nangka Market is one of the markets requested by the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Heru Budi Hartono to arrange. Currently, conditions in front of the Nangka Market along Jalan Kalibaru Timur have not been arranged.
From the observations of journalists in the field, traders were seen mushrooming to control the sidewalks along Jalan Kalibaru Timur.
As a result, pedestrian access is covered by traders' stalls and vehicles also have difficulty crossing because many vehicles are parked on the East Kalibaru road.
Head of the Nangka Market Perumda Pasar Jaya, Sriyono, said that his party had brought order to the existence of street vendors in front of the Nangka Market. Because previously they, the street vendors made the traders' merchandise in the market quiet.
"The street vendors in front of it are the same type of merchandise as those in the market, such as meat, vegetables, eggs, fruit and other types of merchandise. That's why there are few buyers here," he told reporters, Friday, December 9.
Sriyono said, there were even about 15 traders who left the Nangka Market. Currently they trade on sidewalks, with the types of merchandise sold such as meat, vegetables, and other types of merchandise.
"The traders who sell on the sidewalk have information that there are local residents, even outside the local residents, some even from Bogor," he said.
Meanwhile, Utan Panjang Village Head, Amadeo said, there were around 100 illegal traders who traded on the sidewalk. He admitted that it was difficult to bring order to traders because the number was very large.
"There are 100 traders there who hold stalls on the sidewalk. The limitations of village personnel are our obstacles in controlling them," said Amadeo when contacted.
