KOMPAS.com – Indonesia will extend the Covid-19 restrictions on public activities in Java and Bali until October 4 as the number of confirmed cases, though persists, is declining.

Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan said that Java and Bali have no more a very high-risk area of Covid-19 infection. “Currently, no more regency or city is categorized as alert level 4 area,” Luhut said in a televised message on Monday, September 20.

The chief minister also said that some adjustments have been made in Java and Bali areas.
