        "content": "<p>The Eid al-Fitr holiday serves as an opportunity for the public to\ntravel and go on excursions. Polri has urged the public to remain\nvigilant and prioritise safety during their journeys. \u201cThe Indonesian\nNational Police urges all members of the public who utilise the Eid\nal-Fitr holiday for travel or tourism to always prioritise safety,\nvigilance, and adherence to prevailing regulations,\u201d stated Brigadier\nGeneral Tjahyono, Head of the Public Relations Task Force for Operation\nKetupat 2026, to reporters in Ragunan, South Jakarta, on Sunday\n(22\/3\/2026). Tjahyono noted that the Eid holiday is synonymous with\nincreased public mobility, both for family gatherings and visiting\nvarious tourist destinations. He then reminded the public to ensure\nphysical preparedness and vehicle condition. \u201cTherefore, Polri reminds\nthe public to plan their journeys well, ensure their physical condition\nis in top shape, and not to push themselves if feeling tired while\ndriving or during excursions,\u201d he explained. His side also reminded the\npublic planning to visit tourist destinations such as beaches, rivers,\nand swimming pools to continuously monitor weather conditions and water\ncurrents. \u201cPay attention to weather conditions, water flows, and comply\nwith all warning signs and instructions from officers at the site.\nParents are asked to closely supervise their children given the high\npotential for hazards at water-based tourist areas,\u201d he said.\nFurthermore, Tjahyono continued, the public is urged not to swim in\nprohibited areas and to avoid high-risk activities. They should also use\nsafety equipment when necessary. \u201cSafety must be the top priority, not\nonly for oneself but also for family and those around. Polri also\nreminds tourist site managers to take responsibility for ensuring\nvisitor safety,\u201d he stated. \u201cManagers are expected to regulate visitor\ncapacity to avoid overcrowding, provide adequate safety facilities and\ninfrastructure, and prepare security personnel and first aid at the\ntourist sites,\u201d he added. Polri emphasises that safety is a shared\nresponsibility. Awareness and discipline from all members of the public\nare required so that journeys home for Eid, holidays, and the return\nflow can proceed safely, orderly, and smoothly.<\/p>",
