Transitional PSBB
A deciding chapter for Jakarta’s new normal
Less than a month since the central government’s first call to “co-exist” with the coronavirus, Jakarta is
among the first provinces in Indonesia to ease restrictions and begin the transition to the new normal.
Governor Anies Baswdan said the move to ease large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) was necessary as
the capital was suffering from an economic downturn. It experienced an unprecedented 45 percent fall in
tax revenue, leading to drastic cuts in spending. Anies extended the PSBB, also known as a partial
lockdown, for the third time, on June 4, announcing that the month would be Jakarta’s “transition” period,
after research data showed that the epidemiological trend of news cases and deaths had declined.
The transitional PSBB period will serve as an early chapter of Jakarta’s new normal that Anies said would
only apply to strategic sectors with manageable risks, in line with Jokowi’s directive to reopen the
economy carefully and gradually. The Jakarta administration also vowed to push stronger enforcement
and public compliance.
Pro
Many people think this decision is a good thing to do. Considering that the Corona transmission rate in
Jakarta is still so high. Not to mention, as stated by Governor Anies, the Corona isolation bed is predicted
to be full on September 17 if the transmission of COVID-19 cannot be controlled. According to them, the
move by the DKI Jakarta Governor to re-implement the total PSBB on September 14 is the right step.
Because, out of 34 new DKI Provinces that meet the standard, the number of citizen specimens
determined by WHO is one in 1,000.
Contra
Meanwhile, there are also many people who argue that the PSBB policy will again have an impact on the
economy, starting from their businesses that are threatened with less turnover to cutting wages again.
Some even think that the Jakarta PSBB policy is no longer effective in reducing the spread of Corona in
DKI Jakarta.
Apart from that, the ministers also did not agree with and criticized the policies taken by Anies
Baswedan. The three ministers are Coordinating Minister for the Economy Airlangga Hartarto, Trade
Minister Agus Suparmanto and Minister of Industry Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita. The Minister of
Economy even said that the statement issued by Anies Baswedan regarding the total PSBB caused the JCI
to decline.
On the other hand, according to Airlangga, Anies' decision to withdraw the emergency brake greatly
affected the economy. Because, according to him, economic performance is not only influenced by
fundamental conditions, but also public and public trust.
