Authorities from the Public Civil Service office have
instructed all shops and supermarkets in Bali to start utilizing the
PeduliLindungi tracing app as an entry requirement.
During an operation to inspect the compliance of prevention
protocols in many shops and other businesses in Denpasar on Friday (22/10), the
Head of the Denpasar Public Civil Service, Dewa Sayoga stated that all
businesses such as minimarkets, shopping malls, and supermarkets are required
to install a PeduliLindungi tracing app’s QR code at their entrances.
“Every business that could potentially have many visitors like shops and supermarkets are required to start utilizing the PeduliLindungi app as an entry requirement for their customers,” Sayoga said on Sunday (24/10). He also said that businesses that neglect this instruction will receive a fine from authorities. “This is one of our prevention steps to avoid Covid-19 transmissions from surging, so they must comply with this policy,” Sayoga added.
Sayoga also reminds people to install the PeduliLindungi app on their cellphones, especially before visiting public places in Bali. “To end this pandemic is everyone’s responsibility, and not only the government’s. So I urge people to always follow our instructions and keep complying with prevention protocols.” Sayoga concluded.
