For the convenience of pedestrians, Satpol PP and WH disciples peddled pavements Peuniti area, Banda Aceh, Wednesday (27/09/2017).
Officers assisted by owners and store employees move shelves of merchandise into the store.
Head of Public Order and Public Order of Satpol PP and WH Banda Aceh Hardi Karmy explained that the curbing is done based on Mayor Regulation of Banda Aceh Number 11/2017 on Public Order and Community Peace.
"The rulemaking we are doing today is persuasive. Alhamdulillah the traders and shop owners can understand it. In fact they helped our officers to move merchandise from the sidewalk, "he said.
According Hardi, long before the curbing, it has been socializing to the owners of shops or entrepreneurs who majority open the business of selling the phone, to give a written warning.
"So we do not immediately do the curbing but step by step according to the rules."
He added that after curbing the sidewalk along Jl Tgk Chik Ditiro, his side will also conduct similar operations throughout the city. In the near future officers will target the sidewalk along Jl T Nyak Arif, Jl Tgk Daud Beureueh, Jl. Commander Nyak Grave, and Jl Teuku Umar.
"Not only the curbing of the sidewalk, but also the presence of neon boxes and canopies that violate the rules. Public assets or public spaces are not allowed to be commercialized and hamper public access. Our hope in the future, along with the increasing presence of its citizens, Banda Aceh can really be a safe and comfortable city for all, "he concluded.
