TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan has instructed the Bali Provincial Government to reduce community mobilization during the G20 Summit. He opined that remote learning and work-from-home policies are necessary when the international forum takes place in November.

“Pak Governor [of Bali] is expected to help this. I think it is not a problem because we are used to it during COVID-19. This is very helpful for the G20 Summit,” said Luhut in a written statement on Wednesday, October 5, 2022.

The Bali government is also asked to educate local drivers on operating electric vehicles. According to him, the involvement of local drivers in the summit is vital so that the community can also gain benefits from this event.
