Currently, citizens are upset by the issue of closing the Facebook social network in Indonesia. Regarding this, the Minister of Communication and Information of the Republic of Indonesia, Rudiantara, emphasized that he would not close Facebook permanently, but only temporarily.
"That is if the situation gets worse," he said.
Currently, the Government is focusing on securing the Facebook network. After the investigation, the Government will take action. However, until now, there is no clarity about the closure of Facebook in Indonesia.
The government can indeed provide strict sanctions to block Facebook permanently, if necessary. Especially with the fact that the data of one million Indonesian users was also leaked in the Cambridge Analytica scandal which was widely reported recently.
The government also urges all parties to be wiser in using social media. Don't let social media like Facebook be misused to spread hatred.
Thus, netizens no longer need to worry about information about the closure of Facebook. Because until now, the Government has not made an official statement.
