"They will monitor and control people who violate PSBB in a persuasive, humanist, decisive and measurable manner," he expressed, on Tuesday (9/15).

He explained each violator would be subject to progressive sanctions, social work for one hour or pay a fine of Rp 250,000.

But if they made the same mistake, the penalty would be doubled to two hours and a fine of Rp 500,000.
