COVID-19 handling spokesperson lauds security guards, receptionists

Government spokesperson for COVID-19 Handling, Reisa Broto Asmoro, has lauded security officers, hotel door guards, and receptionists and front office staff at shopping centers for their help in handling the pandemic.

“To the Indonesian Security Guard Professional Association (APSI), we thank you very much for (your) professionalism so far in ensuring that public spaces are safe from COVID-19,” she said at an online press conference, as seen here on Friday.

Security guards and front office staff contribute a lot by ensuring the use of the PeduliLindungi application, she noted. She said she expressed appreciation for them because many people do not understand the importance of their role.

“The slightest action that prevents us from regressing back to an emergency condition is a heroic act that we need to appreciate,” she remarked.

She asked security guards and front office staff to consistently ensure that only visitors who have tested negative for COVID-19 and have been vaccinated can access public spaces.

“We always appreciate all the contributions of community members from high-ranking officials, national defense force or police force members, health workers, volunteers, housewives, and children who brought us to this better situation,” she said.

She also asked business players operating shopping centers or malls to impose strict health protocols, including through the use of the PeduliLindungi application at every entrance. This is important so that there are no active COVID-19 patients in malls, she highlighted.

“The market and offices must also do the same,” she stressed.

She said she believed that the public can adapt to various regulations, including the Instruction of the Home Affairs Ministry Number 62 of 2021, which stipulates the prevention and control of COVID-19 during the upcoming Christmas and New Year holidays.

The instruction, which takes effect from December 24, 2021 to January 2, 2022, directs all levels of regional governments to the smallest units such as RT, (neighborhood association) and other stakeholders, to follow the health protocols in a disciplined manner, she added.
