“Of course, in this case, law enforcement remains our top priority. Whatever the disturbance, we will prioritize law enforcement, the National Police will be at the forefront, and the TNI is ready to help,” said Colonel Inf Yudha.
Furthermore, according to him, the potential for future disturbances ahead of the 2023 Election must be anticipated, especially the existence of hoaxes or SARA-tinged issues which indeed have the potential to divide national unity.
