East Jakarta Mayor, Muhammad Anwar asked urban village and sub-district heads in the region to monitor closely 15 RWs that have been set for Local-scale Social Restrictions (PSBL) in order to avoid COVID-19 transmission.

Those 15 RWs are located in densely populated settlements

"Initially, there are 9 RWs which categorized as red zone in East Jakarta. But after evaluation, it increases into 15 RWs where PSBL will be implemented," he explained, Friday (6/5).

According to him, monitoring in PSBL will be tighter than in PSBB. His side will ensure to provide one access for exit and enter the location and monitor all residents in the location to implement a strict health protocol.

"Those 15 RWs are located in densely populated settlements. Thus we need to be strict in monitoring their activities. Only 1 road access allowed as an exit and entry gate," he asserted.

For information, his side will carry out PSBL at RW 01 Utan Kayu Selatan Urban Village, RW 07 Kayumanis Urban Village, RW 03 Pondok Bambu Urban Village, RW 02 Pondok Kelapa Urban Village, RW 04 Tengah Urban Village, RW 03 Batu Ampar Urban Village, RW 05 Balekambang Urban Village, RW 07 Bidara Cina Urban Village, RW 10 Ciracas Urban Village.
