PORTALJABAR, DISTRICT. BEKASI - Acting Bekasi Regent Dani Ramdan immediately took firm action against shops selling illegal liquor located in Tegal Gede Village, Pasirsari Village, South Cikarang District (29/6/2024).

"Yes, today we submitted a letter of revocation of the permit, because the permit for this business was obtained automatically through OSS so we cannot act directly. "However, after going through a long procedure, finally through the Trade Service and DPMPTSP we were able to issue a permit request," said Dani Ramdan.

He said that based on monitoring and evaluation, these business actors did not fulfill their obligations. These include not paying attention to PP Number 5 of 2021 and BKPM Regulation Number 5 of 2021.

Apart from that, the shop is also not in accordance with the conditions of the people of Kp. Tegal Gede is religious, so the Bekasi District Government was present and immediately took firm action and gave him a permit to cancel his business.

Dani Ramdan emphasized that other liquor shops that are watertight and do not comply with the regulations will also be given sanctions in the form of revocation of permits to sell alcoholic drinks.

"There are as many as eight other points, we will take firm action to revoke their business permits if they do not comply with applicable laws and regulations." he stressed.

The party also invites business owners if there are further discussions regarding their business, as well as providing the opportunity for business owners to close their businesses voluntarily.

"We also invite business owners if there is further discussion and are given the opportunity to close voluntarily. "If voluntary closure is not carried out, of course there will be forced closure, with warning letters 1, 2 and 3," he explained.

Previously, the South Cikarang District Satpol PP had issued a warning to the shop selling liquor because it was still operating normally in the Holy Month of Ramadan and was considered a danger to the public. (Diskominfo Bekasi Regency/Fauziah)
