Made saw, the travelers had obeyed the health protocol, especially wearing masks. He said, Kampung Rambutan Terminal has rules that must be obeyed not only by passengers but must be obeyed by anyone who is in the terminal.

Overall, he revealed, both passengers and drivers had used masks. Even though some passengers are still without masks, the terminal will give it a mask.

"The health protocol has been applied. Already wearing a mask. If not, we give. At least if not used, he has finished eating or drinking. There was also a direct check from the Ditlantas Polda Metro Jaya about health protocols,"
