Boyolali, MINA – Merbabu Mount National Park Hall (BTNGMb) Boyolali Regency, Central Java, has installed a Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) on the climbing route of Merbabu. This is done to facilitate the monitoring of climbing activities.

“We install CCTV cameras at the Sabana 1 climbing post in three directions to be able to monitor directly the situation of climbing activities remotely in the BTNGMb Boyolali Office,” said Head of BTNGMb, Edy Sutiyarto, in Boyolali, Friday.

According to Edy Sutiyarto, with the installation of CCTV in Sabana Post, officers will be easier to monitor climbing activities or if there are problems with climbers in the region.
