Tri Rismaharini's reforms though have wide support in Indonesia . Her policy of closing down brothels has been critized by aid and health care workers as it makes the sex trade dispersed and not disappear. Making prostitution illegal makes many sex workers work in conditions that are more dangerous and unregulated and therefore more at risk from diseases. Her latest test is to save Surabaya Zoo, where poor management has caused the death of scores of animals over the past two years. Business people have proposed converting the zoo’s land into a hotel and restaurant, but she has rejected the plan, arguing that the zoo is the icon and pride of the city. Also Ms. Risma was active in rejuvenating the city’s parks and turning many derelict plots into green spaces. As part of her package of social reforms, the Mayor has introduced free education and health care for the poorer sections of her community.
