Page Kodim, you're safe

JAKARTA (JP): City Military Headquarters has urged residents to page immediately its military offices' special forces on motorcycles for any type of crime they witness.

City military spokesman Lt. Col. Didi Supandi said yesterday that the active participation of the public is badly needed to fight crimes during the Idul Fitri festivities, when many people leave the city to celebrate the Islamic holidays in their hometowns.

Each military office will provide personnel who will offer their services 24 hours a day. They will respond via radio paging of Starpac (Telp. 390-2222), Didi said.

Those who need help or witness crimes near their houses can call immediately the armed personnel via number 19201 for the Central Jakarta military office, 19202 for North Jakarta, 19203 for West Jakarta, 19204 for South Jakarta, 19205 for East Jakarta, 19206 for Tangerang and 19207 for Bekasi.

"I hope that these free-of-charge public service numbers can be properly used by all Jakartans to help the authorities reduce the number of crimes," Didi said. (bsr)
