The summary:
The Transportation Ministry has said that the Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta International airport has
temporarily banned foreign tourists entering the country to be able to bid to slow a spike in
coronavirus infections driven by the Omicron variant. Police have also implemented a curfew in
downtown Jakarta from midnight to 4 a.m. as infections have kept climbing. Officials have warned
that the surge in cases driven by the Omicron variant may not peak until late February. Tourists
flying from abroad will still be able to arrive at Bali airport, Batam and Tanjung Pinang in the Riau
Islands near Singapore. Bali officially opened to foreign visitors from 19 countries last October, but
with non-cargo flights until last week foreign tourists have been limited.
