Public fitness or disturbance?

From Kompas

A group of housewives exercise under the guidance of instructors on Jl. Dr. Saharjo, Swadaya II Manggarai, East Jakarta. But over the last three months, these twice weekly activities have annoyed local residents, because they start at 6 a.m. and finish at 8 a.m.

To motorists, the exercises cause a considerable disturbance as they block the way during morning rush hour -- when people go to work, school and tend to various jobs in the area.

In my view, the housewives organizing these activities are not being considerate toward the needs of their neighbors and others.

I hope local community leaders or the subdistrict administration will warn them against inconveniencing the public.
