However, Satriadi could not explain further regarding the purpose of wearing the masks.

He also could not confirm whether DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan would be directly involved in installing masks on the statue of General Sudirman.

“We don’t know yet. It’s still tentative (whether Anies will put a mask on the statue of General Sudirman),” he said.

According to Satriadi, his party was only in charge of preparing masks.

“In principle, the fire department only helps the installation process. Later we will use the ladder unit, that’s (technical implementation) from the Culture and Tourism Office (Disparekraf),” said Satriadi.
