Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo seeks to provide a sense of security and impression for people who go home on Eid al-Fitr 1444 H. Together with Forkopimda Central Java, Ganjar prepared a number of scenarios and anticipatory steps.
On this occasion, the Regional Police Chief Inspector General Ahmad Luthfi said there was the potential to increase the number of travelers by 45.8 percent heading to Central Java during the Eid 2023 period. The number of vehicles reached 1.72 million vehicles.
"We from the local government are trying to prepare, where the traffic jam is, the rest area continues to spill and the U-turn must be our concern," said Ganjar at the Gradhika Bhakti Praja Building, Friday, March 31.
To ensure the safety and comfort of travelers, the Central Java Police will prepare 254 posts consisting of integrated posts, service posts and security posts. The total strength deployed was 20,339 joint personnel.
"The police chief reported that his crime has increased. We must be careful, so we convey it to the public, let's talk about Ramadan's goodness. Let's prepare this homecoming safely and memorablely, this is what we are trying to convey," he said.
Another issue ahead of Lebaran 2023 that is the focus of Ganjar is infrastructure, especially roads. The progress is still being accelerated, pursuing extreme weather which is predicted by BMKG to continue until May.
"So we are really being tested now, we will try our cohesiveness by making good planning, we ask for support from the DPRD, complete forkopimda, Kajati, Pangdam, for us to be able to support," he said.
In addition, Ganjar Pranowo also observed the availability of food stocks. On that occasion, Bulog said that rice stocks and cooking oil were safe. As many as 14,500 tons and 102 tons, respectively.
"Including maintaining food security, we ask to check whether everything is safe," he said.
Ganjar also conveyed input from the Central Java MUI regarding the potential difference in Eid al-Fitr 1444 H which might cause intrigue. He said, this is not the first time, so Ganjar believes that the public can accept these differences well.
Despite these anticipations and scenarios, Ganjar appealed to district/city governments to actively check. So that safe and memorable Eid can be realized.
"Those are some of the anticipations that we are doing today, big coordination, there is still time and we ask for an active role from the government in the city district to check each," he added.
