Jakarta –
The Vice Chairman of the COVID-19 Management Committee and National Economic Recovery (KPC PEN), Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, appointed by President Joko Widodo to suppress the spread of the Corona virus (COVID-19) in 9 provinces. Member of the IX DPR RI Commission of the PDIP faction, Rahmad Handoyo, considered Jokowi’s step successful.
“I think there is no problem with the appointment of the president in Pak Luhut, because what I got was that Pak Luhut was in coordination with Pangdam, coordinating with the Regional Police Chief of the 8 provinces,” Handoyo told reporters on Tuesday. (9/15/202).
Handoyo said that Luhut had the ability to suppress the spread of Corona through the Yustisi operation. Luhut is considered to have experience in coordinating with Pangdam and Kapolda.
“Now, when the capacity of Mr. Luhut has been implemented and coordinated on issues of justice, legal issues, of course, and incidentally, in it Mr. Luhut is included in the COVID-19 control team. So I don’t think it’s a problem, he’s the right one, because he’s an expert in controlling Pangdam, how to control Kapolda, “he said.
Handoyo evaluated the appointment of Jokowi de Luhut as appropriate to enforce public discipline. This is because, Handoyo said, a new culture of life with a disciplined health protocol is still lacking in the community.
“We’re support for, we thank the president for immediately controlling COVID from the side of the enforcement process. Because until now what has become the public complaint and in quotation marks has not been controlled because indeed we lack discipline, so our new culture of life in discipline is still not well enforced, now it is here where Pak Luhut plays a role in coordination to be able to coordinate with the Kapolda with its staff, I think that the Pangdam is in line with the ranks, “he said.
So what about the role of Health Minister Terawan Agus Putranto? Handoyo said that Terawan was in charge of the technical aspect of health. Handoyo said Terawan was working on the process of finding and organizing vaccines.
“So the question is why not Mr. Menkes? Mr. Menkes, from the technical side of health, Mr. Menkes is not from the perspective of enforcing legal discipline. Pak Terawan or Pak Menkes is from from a technical and health point of view, how is the vaccine discovery process and how later to organize vaccines in the future, and how also for the rules processes that are made ”, he added.
Previously, President Jokowi instructed the coordinating minister for Maritime Affairs and Investments, as well as the vice chairman of the COVID-19 Management Committee and National Economic Recovery (KPCPEN), Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, and the head of the COVID-19 Task Force , Doni Monardo, who will focus on dealing with Corona (COVID-19) in 8 provinces. Jokowi gave a two-week target for Corona cases in these 8 areas to decline.
“The president asked that in two weeks this be more specifically coordinated and focused on 8 areas that were affected by a larger increase. And he assigned the vice chairman of the committee, Pak Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan and the head of the COVID Task Force to monitor and while evaluating, “KPCPEN President Airlangga Hartarto said at a press conference broadcast on the Cabinet Secretariat’s YouTube account, Monday (9/14).
