Jakarta Enters Transition Towards New Normal



KONTAN.CO.ID - JAKARTA. The status of Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) in the DKI Jakarta area is still being extended, but this June will be a transition period before moving towards a new normal era.

DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan explained, in general conditions Jakarta had improved since there was a first case of the corona virus. But there are still a number of areas with red status.

"In general, it is already green and yellow, but there are areas that are still red, because it is still a PSBB status. However, on the other hand we have begun to make the transition. The transition from massive social restrictions to safe, healthy and productive conditions," Anies said, Thursday (4/6).

Anies said there was no set time in this transition period. This transition period ends when all indicators have shown improvement or are stable.

"This transition period starts tomorrow until it is finished. Did not mention how long because we have to rely on the figures of all indicators. If the stable is ended until June, if not, we will extend the transition period," explained Anies.

Anies explained, in this transition period, socio-economic activities can be done in stages. However, there are still limits that must be obeyed.

He explained, the first phase of this transition period would begin with easing, i.e. only for activities that have large benefits for the community and the effects of controlled risk. "Hopefully the first phase will be completed by the end of this June," said Anies.

If during the month of June 2020 there were no significant positive surge in cases or other indicators showing improvement, then the second phase or broader easing will be implemented.
