Seventy-five joint personnel stepped in to arrange the Koja Baru Market area along Jalan Bhayangkara, North Jakarta.

The move was aimed at restoring public facilities, unclogging traffic, and keeping channels clean.

We want to make the market orderly, clean, safe, and pleasant

Koja Sub-district Vice Head Shalih Nopiansyar noted the operation ensures sidewalks and streets are used as intended.

"We want to make the market orderly, clean, safe, and pleasant. We’re taking a compassionate approach so vendors and locals see why protecting public facilities matters," he expressed, Thursday (10/15).

The operation enforces Bylaw No. 8/2007 on Public Order, mobilizing a wide coalition of Satpol PP, transportation personnel, police and military, PPSU personnel, environment sub-agency personnel, and local community representatives (RT/RW, LMK, FKDM).

“Keeping this area orderly takes community-wide cooperation. We need continuous oversight so public facilities aren't misused again,” he explained.

Kusmadi hopes the joint operation inspires locals to keep the market clean and organized.

“Markets drive the local economy. We all need to support this cleanup so vendors can trade smoothly while walkers and drivers feel comfortable,” he noted.
