Arriving at the city square, the joint team also gave advice and dissemination to traders and shop owners regarding the implementation of the Emergency PPKM regulations in Probolinggo City.
The mayor was also seen several times getting off his motorbike to help the team disperse the crowd. One of which was at the area of Jalan Cokroaminoto, where several young people were caught not wearing masks.
The patrol route continues south to the Gladak Serang roundabout then to Jalan Slamet Riyadi, Taman Maramis, Jalan Supriyadi, and Jalan Soekarno Hatta.
To ensure that the cafes and shops that have been asked to follow the Emergency PPKM regulations, there is a location that the patrol team visits again, on Jalan Dr. M Saleh. Again, Mayor Habib Hadi together with AKBP RM Jauhari came down to strongly appeal to visitors to go home immediately and ask the cafe owner to close the cafe.
Heading back to the Probolinggo City Police Office courtyard at 10 pm, Mayor Habib Hadi admitted that the condition of the city was quite conducive on the first day of the Emergency PPKM implementation. "In general, yes, it's quite conducive. Some places haven't implemented the regulation," said the mayor.
The mayor also asked the public to always be united in complying with the Emergency PPKM regulations so that the Covid 19 transmission rate in Probolinggo City immediately decreased. "If we all stick together, God willing, within the next 1 or 2 weeks, the Covid 19 cases will be decreased,” he asked.
Given the high number of cases of Covid 19 transmission in Probolinggo City as of Saturday (3/7), reaching 179 people, Mayor Habib Hadi hopes that the public will always be vigilant and maintain health protocols. "I hope that residents will maintain their health, prioritize health protocols, follow the appeals from the government for the safety of all of us," hoped the mayor. (alfien_tr)
