JAKARTA, KOMPAS – The implementation of micro PPKM will run from February 9 to February 22. Micro PPKM involves implementation at neighborhood units (RT) and community units (RW) across regencies and cities, as well as villages and subdistricts. The purpose of this policy is to curb the cur-rent increase in COVID-19 positive cases.
Coordinating Economic Minister Airlangga Hartarto on Monday said micro PPKM will be implemented in Java and Bali islands. These regions represent 66 percent of COVID-19 cases nationally.
