The Indonesian Hotel and Restaurant Association (PHRI) has asked Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan to allow restaurants in shopping malls and hotels to provide dine-in services despite the large-scale social restrictions (PSBB).
Dicky Budiman, an Indonesian epidemiologist at Australia’s Griffith University, said Anies’ decision was bold and based on data, and he called on other administrations across Java to all impose the PSBB in order to see effective results.
The program aims to optimize internet connections at 2,619 hotspots and provide 1,200 more hotspots in densely populated residential areas in North Jakarta, Central Jakarta, West Jakarta, East Jakarta and South Jakarta and Thousand Islands regency.
As a consequence of this extension, the city administration would delay further relaxations, such as the reopening of movie theaters, that were initially scheduled to be implemented at the end of July, said Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan.
“Do not let this situation reach the point where we have to pull the emergency brake,” Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan said. “If that happens, we all have to go back home and economic, religious and social activities will be halted.”
