Seputarkarawang.com - Karawang, The chaos regarding Theater Night Mart (TNM) licensing reached a new stage when Commission I DPRD Karawang Regency held a surprise inspection (sidak) at the location on Jalan Tuparev, Thursday evening (16/4). This inspection was supervised directly by representatives of the Karawang United Islamic Organization Alliance Forum which brought together 18 large organizations - including FMI, MUI, FPI, Persis, GSI, and NU - as a proof step for indications of administrative defects that had emerged since the Hearing Meeting (RDP).The chairman of FMI Karawang and representative of the Advocacy Division of the Karawang United Islamic Organization Alliance Forum, Febry Ramadhan, emphasized that tonight's findings strengthened the indication of management disobedience. to applicable regulations. "Febry highlighted the building's operations which were forced to continue even though the basic legal documents had not been procedurally completed."Since the RDP, there have been clear indications of fatal administrative flaws, but the facts on the ground tonight show that there are allegations of full operations without PBG and SLF. Moreover, this is an old cinema building that has been around for decades, where there is music activity whose vibrations can be heard outside even though it is claimed to use soundproofing. Please remember, soundproofing is not a technical standard for PBG or SLF," stressed Febry Ramadhan. on the sidelines of Sidak.Febry continued, there was great concern regarding the aspect of visitor life safety considering the physical condition of the old building which had not been technically tested through SLF documents. He questioned the security guarantee for the public if the decades-old building suddenly experienced structural failure without a valid feasibility test from the relevant agency."The big question arises, what if this old building collapses or something undesirable happens that kills people because there has been no technical feasibility test? If that happens, then the relevant agencies should be held responsible for alleged negligence because they allowed operations to continue without SLF assurance. Don't let public safety be sacrificed for the sake of a business that is suspected of not complying with the rules," he continued.
Furthermore, Febry revealed allegations of manipulation of business risk classification in the licensing system which was allegedly carried out deliberately to avoid strict supervision, where the permit used was for a restaurant with low risk, but in fact its operations were thought to resemble a discotheque which was in the high risk category. This is seen as an administrative loophole to obtain easy permits while avoiding strict security standards and supervision from the regional government for purely commercial interests.This attitude is fully supported by the Deputy Secretary of MUI Karawang, Ustaz Yayan Sofyan, who highlighted the findings of activities at locations that were strongly suspected of deviating from the initial permits. "We received reports of DJs here, which is an indication of the alleged change of function into a Night Entertainment Place (THM). Meanwhile, in the licensing it is alleged that there is no permit for that, and the MUI consistently rejects night entertainment because it has the potential to bring harm to the people," stressed Ustaz Yayan.Member of Commission I DPRD Karawang, Saepudin Zuhri, confirmed that the findings of this inspection will be immediately followed up administratively through closure steps. "Tomorrow we will issue an official closure recommendation letter which will be submitted to Satpol PP. Currently the process is entering the classification stage for alleged piles of administrative violations to ensure that the supremacy of law is maintained and that business units will not be allowed to ignore legality," said Saepudin Zuhri, closing the series of inspections.
