Makassar City Social Service, South Sulawesi has intensified monitoring of street children, homeless people, and beggars who are increasingly prevalent in a number of strategic places in the area.

"One of the modes used by beggars and street children in the field is by wearing a blank doll costume or being a silver man," said Acting Head of Social Rehabilitation of the Makassar City Social Service, Suhartiny, as reported by ANTARA, Thursday, May 11.

He said the phenomenon in the field was a model of begging using a dollows or by painting himself with silver like a statue man.

This condition is admitted to be concerning, because on average those who take to the streets are school-age children.

In this regard, his party is intensely monitoring and controlling a number of points in Makassar City, such as the busy protocol roads including Jalan Boulevard, Jalan Pengayoman, Jalan Pettarani, and Jalan Abdullah Dg Sirua.
