Twelve foreigners who were traveling without carrying
identification cards, including eight Japanese, were netted in
the citizenship operation in Central Jakarta.

Pos Kota reported yesterday that four other foreigners netted
on Monday's operation included a Dane, Australian, Canadian and
South Korean.

The foreigners were netted along with 108 Indonesian nationals
registered as Jakarta and non-Jakarta residents in a citizenship
operation on Jl. Lapangan Tembak in the Senayan area, Central
Jakarta. They were fined on the spot which is in line with the
operation procedures.

The operation team ordered the foreigners to pay a fine of Rp
7,000 each plus a Rp 500 administration fee.

During the operation, a joint team randomly stops vehicles on
the road, including private cars, and requests passengers to
produce their IDs. Those who cannot show their identification
documents are judged on the spot and fined accordingly. (has)
