- Indonesia’s Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, Airlangga Hartarto, has released a statement confirming that the Enforced Community Activity Restrictions (Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat – "PPKM") that are currently in force in areas outside of Java and Bali will be re-extended until 31 January 2022.
- Various areas of the country currently fall into a number of different PPKM categories, as follows: 1) 238 cities/regencies currently fall into the Level-1 PPKM category; 2) 138 cities/regencies currently fall into the Level-2 PPKM category; 3) 10 cities/regencies currently fall into the Level-3 PPKM category; and 4) No cities/regencies currently fall into the Level-4 PPKM category.
- According to government data, as of 15 January, there were a total of 8,463 active Corona Virus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") cases at the national level, only 23% of which were in areas lying outside of Java and Bali. Moreover, areas outside of Java and Bali registered a total of 69 daily cases, three of which were classified as imported cases, while the remainder were the result of local transmission. In addition, the overall COVID-19 reproduction rate has increased across several areas lying outside of the islands of Java and Bali, including the islands of Sumatra and Maluku, which have registered a 1.00 and 0.92 rate respectively.
- In his statement, Mr. Hartanto confirmed that the government is also currently making preparations for domestic production of a number of COVID-19 vaccines, including Merah Putih vaccines and other domestically produced vaccine brands. It is hoped that production will commence during the second semester of this year.
- Moreover, in terms of the planned MotoGP Indonesia event that is set to be held in Mandalika, Nusa Tenggara Barat in 2022, the President of Indonesia recently approved a request to increase the event’s spectator capacity up to 100,000. Against this background, the government has decided to further accelerate the vaccination rate on the island of Lombok in the hope that Central Lombok will hit an 84% vaccination rate prior to the event, while 76.72% of the population are being targeted as recipients of booster/third-dose vaccines. Meanwhile, the Lombok capital of Mataram has already achieved a 100% first-dose vaccination rate and is currently being targeted for the rolling out of booster/third dose vaccinations. (SETKAB)
