“Because of the reports from regencies and cities that we received, not all. Report from Murung Raya District, only one of the six sub-districts has active cases. With the mapping at the Neighborhood Association level, Covid-19 control can become more focused,” said the Governor.

“The enactment of the limitation of Micro-Scale Community Activities is not just a determined decision, then it is not implemented and is not properly evaluated,” he said. (*/red)
