MALUKU - The Department of Industry and Trade (Disperindag) of Ternate City, North Maluku (Malut) intensively supervises the construction of stalls without permits built in prohibited areas.

"Indeed, there are traders building stalls in various areas that are not allowed to trade, because it will disturb the comfort of residents, especially in the holy month of Ramadan 1444 Hijri," said Head of Industry and Trade Office of Ternate City, Muchlis Djumadil, quoted from Antara, Sunday, March 26.

He admitted that there was a stall built around Kota Baru Market and did not have a permit, so Disperindag would coordinate with the relevant agencies and if it did not have a permit it would be dismantled.

Muchlis stated that since the beginning the Ternate City Government had banned the activities of seasonal traders who filled various city centers to sell in public areas, especially during the holy month of Ramadan 1444 Hijri.

"The activities of traders in public spaces during Ramadan have been prohibited, especially in the Falajawa Beach area, the Al-Munawwar Grand Mosque, so as not to interfere with residents' activities during the month of Ramadan," he said.

According to him, his party has coordinated with related agencies such as the Department of Transportation, Satpol PP and Disperindag, to maintain and supervise the existence of traders selling in prohibited areas and this is solely to ensure that residents are comfortable during the holy month of Ramadan.

In fact, the Ternate City Government took the initiative to place seasonal traders at various determined points, so that they would not be seen chaotically and through Disperindag, had intensively socialized and organized the area to provide comfort for residents who shop during the holy month of Ramadan in 2023.
