JAKARTA - The Minister of Home Affairs, Tito Karnavian, views that the rule of eating in places or dine-in which is limited to a maximum of 20 minutes in food stalls during PPKM (Restrictions on Community Activities) Level 4 is logical.
"In principle, I think 20 minutes is enough for us to eat somewhere", Tito said in a virtual press conference broadcast on the Presidential Secretariat Youtube, Monday, July 26.
Tito asked the public to understand why the government gave a time limit. He explained that the restrictions made in restaurants were carried out to minimize the transmission of COVID-19.
Customers who eat on the spot, try not to do activities that spread droplets or aerosols such as loud chatting, laughing loudly. Therefore, he considers eating activities enough to do 20 minutes as long as they don't talk and chat.
"It might sound funny. But abroad, in some other countries, it has been enforced for a long time. So, eating without talking much and then 20 minutes is enough, after that give turns to other community members", said Tito
