PKL or Street Vendors (exercise 9)

Recently the growth of Indonesia's economics that is presented by trading activities is very kinds. The traders, not only the rich but also every person  who has capital either big or small, can do this activity. For example PKL, standing for Pedagang Kaki Lima or the small trader,  spread everywhere specially in the big cities like Jakarta. PKL is commonly spreading on the right or left of the street  particularly in the main street.Consequently the main street can be narrow and of course the traffic jam will happen.

Basicly, their activity which is trading many kinds of goods, is not wrong. But it can be the problem even big problem if they disturb others' interests.  Although there are many policies that have been given to manage PKL,  it  always fails. For a while, PKL  moved from the main street, but soon they will come again and have their activities  as usual. Even though police often regulate them by anarchism, it does not affect them, even they against the polices bravely.

Some people said that PKL have a right to do their activity.  Moreover, their activities are for money for their life. Unfortunately, the facts show us that the authority often give special attention to the big investors  or the rich, but in another side they disobey the grass root, in this case PKL. It seems that there is no justice for all. Consequently, PKL think that they must be strong and fight for life, so they are difficult to be cut off.

The experts say, there must be a discussion to all of the interests  between authority and PKL to find out the best way to resolve this problem. The authority has to think about the relocation all of PKL from the main street to the new places which are more convenience and the rental cost is affordable. Besides, the places must be strategic so, the buyer can buy it easily. Furthermore, there must be a justice regulation in managing modern market and PKL.
