He hoped that the massive health protocols socialization to all levels of society could accelerate city's efforts to control and handle COVID-19, especially in areas that were categorized as red zone due to high infection rate (IR) of COVID-19.

"Urban village, sub-district heads, and mayor also give good attention to their residents. Thus people's obedience can continue to increase. Not only excellent in service and security, but hopefully problems in here can be solved well," he conveyed.
