JAKARTA (JP): Two more entertainment centers will be punished
for violating New Year's Eve regulations, an official said.

Toha Reno, an official from the City Public Order Office, said
yesterday that the parties held at Hotel Wisata International on
Jl. Thamrin, and at Ponderosa restaurant on Jl. Gatot Subroto
were held in violation of the regulations.

Toha said that both places sold illegal tickets for special
shows. According to regulation tickets for special shows must be
legalized by the City Revenue Office.

"The office will report this to the governor in a meeting
tomorrow and the punishment will also be decided there," Toha
said yesterday.

He said that as punishment the city will fine these
establishments or close them down for a month.

Seven other entertainment centers, including restaurants,
company parties and discotheques were also found violating the
regulation by failing to obtain the special New Year's eve
operating permit and violating the opening hours. (yns)
