The Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) appealed to the public not to buy mobile phone products from the black market (black market).
This follows a case of illegal International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) registration in the Centralized Equipment Identity Register (CEIR) system.
"If you buy a cellphone at an official place, don't black market," said Ministry of Industry spokesman Febri Hendri Antoni Arif to reporters at the Ministry of Industry Building, Jakarta, Monday, July 31.
Febri appealed to the public to be careful when buying manufactured goods, especially in purchasing cellphones.
"You have to check the IMEI and if you can buy it on the official route," he said.
As previously reported, the Minister of Industry (Menperin) Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita said that he had heard that there were employees who had been named as suspects in the case of violating IMEI rules.
The suspects announced were employees of the Ministry of Industry at the Directorate General of Metal, Machinery, Transportation Equipment, and Electronics (ILMATE) Industry.
According to Agus, the demolition of cases of violation of IMEI rules began with his initiative. He admitted that he had been teased by several businessmen to be involved in "reversing" IMEI regulations aimed at preventing the circulation of illegal imported cellphones.
He stated that some of the businessmen were looking for colleagues at the Ministry of Industry and claimed to already have "people" in other institutions to be able to access IMEI tracking machines.
