As part of a plan to gradually loosen the PSBB policy, police and military personnel will be deployed to monitor prevailing restrictions starting on Tuesday in Jakarta, West Java, West Sumatra and Gorontalo provinces.
Up to 340,000 officers will be posted at 1,800 public spaces to enforce the limitation of large gatherings and ensure modes of public transportation and commercial areas operate at only 50 percent capacity, Indonesian Military (TNI) commander Air Chief Marshal Hadi Tjahjanto said as quoted by kompas.com.
A shopping mall that can accommodate 1,000 people, for instance, will only be allowed to hold 500 people. (gis/kes)
