Satpol PP: Tourists, Don't Smoke in Kota Tua Area

His party was ready to hold various art performance activities at the lokbin upon an official request from the West Jakarta PPKUKM Sub-agency.

"We're ready to collaborate in revitalizing the Kota Tua tourist area. As I recall, in 2019, we held routine art performances once a week," he continued.

According to him, the modern art stage is held in the Kota Intan Lokbin's entertainment stage area. It is because residents who visit Kota Tua area prefer modern art performances.

"On the other hand, traditional art performances such as Gambang Kromong are more suitable for display in Srengseng or Semanan City Forest areas," he added.

Hopefully, if the art performance at Kota Intan Lokbin could be realized, it would attract more visitors to Kota Tua area.

"As a result, the target of revitalizing the Kota Tua area was achieved and street vendors (PKL) continued to sell at the lokbin with many visitors enjoying art performances," he stated.
