JAKARTA - PDIP faction Regional House of Representatives member, Agustina Hermanto or who is familiarly called Tina Toon, rejected the proposal to add criminal sanctions for violating health protocols in the revision of Regional Regulation Number 2 of 2020 proposed by DKI Governor Anies Baswedan.
This was conveyed during a discussion meeting on the revision of Regional Regulation Number 2 of 2021 concerning COVID-19 Management at the DKI DPRD Building, Central Jakarta.
"The criminal approach (in the revision of the regional regulation), I refuse because at this time our conditions are very bad", Tina said on Thursday, July 22.
According to Tina, the addition of criminal sanctions does not have a humanistic nature. This is because some people violate health protocols to be able to eat and fulfill their daily needs.
"Our brothers and sisters who do violate also sometimes have stomach problems, because they can't work as usual, and they don't get income", she said.
Tina requested that the proposed criminal sanction be reviewed by the DKI DPRD Formation of Regional Regulations. Because criminal penalties can be a threat to residents who are in trouble due to the pandemic.
"Please review it again. Maybe in the future, fines or social work can be added, such as longer social work for those who don't wear masks", said Tina.
