President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) asked that there be no questions about the closure of areas related to efforts to prevent the spread of the Corona virus (COVID-19). Jokowi called on all staff at the central and regional levels to seriously handle this pandemic.
“No, there is no need to worry about blocking the province, blocking the city or blocking the district, because it will sacrifice people’s lives. But we are serious about preventing the spread of the plague,” Jokowi said in a broadcast video. on the YouTube channel. The Presidential Secretariat (Setpres), as seen detikcom, Sunday (4/10).
Jokowi said that the results of efforts to prevent the spread of Corona were important. He called for all policies to be based on facts on the ground, not mere estimates.
“What about the results? This is the most important thing. Let’s judge based on facts and data, and not guesswork,” he said.
The former governor of DKI Jakarta himself considered the handling of the Corona pandemic in Indonesia to be quite good. Jokowi invites all parties to evaluate Corona’s handling in the country based on facts.
“I can say that the handling of COVID-19 in Indonesia is not bad, not even good enough. So I’m just talking about facts,” Jokowi said.
In this statement, Jokowi is not actually the one who is referring to being so busy blocking areas. However, the head of the PDIP faction in the DKI DPRD, Gembong Warsono, said that the message touched the governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan.
This is because Anies is currently applying the emergency brake by implementing a strict policy of large-scale social restraint (PSBB) to suppress the increase in Corona cases in Jakarta.
“Not specifically for Anies, but cute, you don’t have to talk about it,” Gembong told reporters on Sunday (4/10).
Gembong said, regarding the micro-scale social restrictions (PSBM) that Jokowi broadcast was appropriate to be applied in Jakarta. If this is done, it will be easier for DKI Pemprov to carry out supervision by involving residents.
“In fact, what Jokowi said about the PSBM, I think it is very appropriate if it is applied in Jakarta. Because the provincial government is much more focused on monitoring and there will also be active community participation,” he said.
So who is Jokowi really referring to?
