VIVA – President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) officially revokes the policy of restrictions on community activities or Indonesian known as PPKM on Friday, December 30, 2022. Although WHO has not set the status of the COVID-19 Pandemic to Endemic, the Indonesian government stated that the condition of COVID-19 in Indonesia is under control.
The head of state mentioned that in recent months the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia has been increasingly under control. Data as of December 27, 2022, the number of daily cases was 1.7 cases per 1 million population.
Then the weekly positivity rate is 3.35%, the hospital treatment rate is at 4.79% and the mortality rate is at 2.39%. According to President Jokowi, these figures are all below WHO standards.
"After reviewing and considering these developments, we have been reviewing for more than 10 months and through considerations based on existing figures, today, the Government has decided to revoke the PPKM," President Joko Widodo said at the Presidential Palace Jakarta, Friday.

As known, PPKM was first implemented on January 11 to January 25, 2021, precisely in seven provinces in Java, including DKI Jakarta, West Java, Banten, Central Java, Yogyakarta, East Java, and Bali.
Over time, as well as adjusting the conditions of each region in Indonesia, PPKM is carried out on an ongoing basis starting from Java Island, Sumatra Island, Kalimantan Island, and Sulawesi Island, to the National scale.
So far, the PPKM that had the most impact on MSMEs and small communities is the Emergency PPKM that took effect on July 3 to 25, 2021, where this PPKM targets a decrease in the addition of daily confirmation cases to below 10 thousand cases per day.
The restrictions imposed include that shopping centers/malls/trade centers must be closed; restaurants and restaurants do not accept meals on the spot; then places of worship are not allowed to hold worship in the congregation, and others. The tightening policy certainly has an impact on economic conditions.
