JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government (Pemrov) through the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency has asked operators to fire parking attendants who collect payments or tariffs twice at Blok M Square, South Jakarta.

Head of the Parking Management Unit (UP) of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Service (Dishub), Adji Kusambarto said the firm action was to provide a deterrent effect.

"Residents may refuse if there is a parking attendant (pouring the tariff twice), if necessary, take a photo so they can refuse, so we will give strict sanctions," he said when contacted, Wednesday, July 5, confiscated by Antara.

Adji asked residents to report if they found the practice of illegal parking attendants in Blok M Square via Instagram @dishubdkijakarta or visited the officer post on Jalan Melawai V.

His party has also put up a number of socialization banners stating that they entered the area only once paid at the exit.

In the Blok M Square area, there are six entrances and four exits that are equipped with posts and gates.

"We installed the banner so that people know and don't want it, for example, to be charged twice," he said.

Supervision is also further tightened by deploying 10 Parking Management Unit officers to ensure that no illegal parking attendants are still operating.

"The UPP oversees parking attendants who collect parking rates outside the provisions at the location and are reported to the organizers for dismissal," he said.
