Jakarta -The Inspector of Metro Jaya Police, Karyoto, asked his staff to be attentive to protecting the International Labor Day or May Day Fiesta 2025 in the Jakarta area. He asked his staff to expect vulnerability. “May 1 is an important moment for workers to express their pursuit and to fight their rights. However, it is important to remember that May Day also has possible vulnerability, both of the aspects of public involvement, traffic and national security,” Karyoto told reporters on Tuesday (4/29/2025).

Every event that takes place in Jakarta will be a concern for the national, even international public and possibly domino effects in other regions,” he said. “That’s why we shouldn’t be even the slightest. Security disorders in Jakarta can have a broad impact, both social, political and economic,” he added. Karyoto added, the May Day Fiesta series itself was not just focused in Jakarta. The mass movement of the buffer area should be expected to ensure that the activities run smoothly. It is estimated that 200 thousand masses will participate in the big event. Police, continued Karyoto, are ready to guard the departure and return of the masses. “Later we will accompany the preparation area. From the vehicle and then walk to this place together. Where is the car route, where the bus route, where the entrance is, and parking space where we set it,” he said. Furthermore, Karyoto asked his staff to be professional and avoid action that causes tension. He also requested that traffic engineering be applied maximally so that congestion did not occur during the activity. “Notice to the community regarding May Day activities. The notice aims to enable the community to adapt their activities and not be disturbed and harmed or impeded due to the existence of May Day,” he concluded.
