15 nightspots shut for Ramadhan

JAKARTA: The City Public Order Agency closed two entertainment
venues on Thursday, bringing the total to 15 premises closed
during the Islamic fasting month.

The newly shut nightspots were located in Taman Ria in Central
Jakarta, and in Cilandak Town Square in South Jakarta,
respectively.

The agency head Hariyanto Bajuri explained on Friday that the
two places had violated the Gubernatorial Regulation No. 98/2004
on tourism, which specifies that they should not be operational
during Ramadhan.

The regulations includes entertainment venues such as
discotheques, spas, massage parlors and bars. -- Antara
