hile many Jakartans are preparing themselves for the long Idul Fitri holiday, officials from many city departments are ready to work in shifts to make sure the city runs smoothly.
“The Public Order Agency [Satpol PP], Transportation Agency, Health Agency, Environmental Agency and Firefighter Agency are required to stand by and work in shifts,” Jakarta Governor Djarot Saiful Hidayat said on Monday.
It will be a long holiday from June 23 to July 3, a total of 10 days, Djarot said.
“I have ordered the inspectorate not to give any leave extensions until after July 3,” he said, adding that those who were absent without an acceptable reason would receive sanctions such as a cut in their allowance.
Djarot said that Jakarta civil servants could not leave their jobs before June 23 and they had to start working on time after July 3.
