As many as 30 joint personnel of Satpol PP and East Jakarta Transportation Sub-agency controlled street vendors on Jalan Kemuning, RW 06, Balimester Urban Village, Jatinegara District.

Head of Jatinegara District, Endang Kartika, said as many as 43 street vendors were given education to comply with selling regulations.

"In order not to sell on the sidewalk which is a public facility for pedestrians," he said, Friday (4/17).

Meanwhile, Head of Jatinegara District Satpol PP, Teguh Nurdin Amali said the majority of street vendors were traders of various animals, such as birds, fish, dogs, cats, snakes, and even rabbits.

"Their presence certainly disturbs the safety and comfort of pedestrians and can trigger traffic jams around the location," he added.

Teguh explained that the street vendors were given yellow cards or warnings for not to carry out business activities in places that were not designated for them.

"If violations continue, we will take action with minor criminal sanctions and they must attend a trial at the East Jakarta District Court," he emphasized.
