he city administration plans to buy several vacant land plots in the capital to cater to street vendors, so their businesses would not disturb public order.
'The city is now searching for vacant plots to establish the street vendor centers,' Jakarta Public Order Agency (Satpol PP) head Kukuh Hadi Santoso said on Tuesday as quoted by beritajakarta.com.
The administration, Kukuh said, had established certain areas for street vendors, such as the Lenggang Jakarta at the National Monument (Monas) in Central Jakarta, as an attempt to solve the problems regarding the street vendors.
He went on to say that the city's effort to demolish hundreds of illegal street vendor kiosk would not deliberately discourage them from doing business on the sidewalks.
