JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan emphasized that the central government has supported the DKI provincial government plan to implement large-scale social restrictions (PSBB), such as the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“Then we both realize that without taking care of our health, it is impossible for the economy to move,” he continued.

Even so, Anies did not want to reveal the details of the regulation during the total of PSBB.

The reason is that according to Anies, the DKI Jakarta provincial government is still discussing the details of the rules that will apply during the PSBB.

“Tomorrow when I see the details, the details will be more Clear (Clear). Then later when we announce that it is available now. The form of the regulation has articles, there are detailed details so that different interpretations are not given, ”said Anies.

It is known that the PSBB will be implemented again from September 14, 2020.

Anies said this decision was made considering a number of factors, namely the availability of hospital beds that were almost full and the high mortality rate.

“At a meeting of the working group to accelerate the control of covid 19 in Jakarta, it was concluded that we will apply the emergency brake, which means that we are forced to re-implement social restrictions on a large scale as in the first days of the pandemic, “Anies said on Wednesday (9/9/2020).
