Jakarta Social Agency has deployed Social Service, Supervision, and Control (P3S) officers to be on duty during Eid holidays to reach out to people with social welfare issues (PPKS) at various locations, especially tourist attractions and public spaces.

"We will be on standby 24 hours,"

Jakarta Social Agency Head, Premi Lasari, stated that the number of PPKS often increases at tourist spots during Eid holidays. Therefore, P3S officers will conduct monitoring and outreach PPKS at these locations.
