He also instructed all officials to be ready to provide the best possible service to the public, while encouraging citizens to work together in keeping Jakarta secure.
“We hope this is something we can all protect together,” he added.
Pramono also mentioned that certain schools had asked to temporarily halt in-person classes for the safety and well-being of students and staff.
“Some schools made this request. But if there's no such request, classes will continue as usual,” he said.
For schools unaffected by demonstrations, in-person learning continues. He noted that he has coordinated with Education Agency regarding this matter.
"I've spoken with Education Agency Head that some schools requested to switch to remote learning. But in general, most schools across Jakarta are operating normally," he emphasized.
