JAKARTA - The Unlicensed Business Activity Handling Task Force in the government's Finance Sector (Satgas) blocked the Jombingo website belonging to PT calmby Digital Kreasi which operates not according to the permit and is suspected of harming the public.

The decision was taken by the government task force consisting of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) of the Ministry of Trade, Bank Indonesia, Polri, and the Financial Reports and Transaction Center (PPATK) on Tuesday, July 4 after a coordination meeting to respond to complaints related to Jombigo activities.

"At the meeting, the government task force summoned the Jombino for questioning but the person concerned was not present without a clear notification," said Secretary of the Unlicensed Business Activity Handling Task Force at the Finance Sector of Hudiyanto in an official statement, Saturday, July 7.

PTryptoby Digital Kreasi (Jombino) is known to have a List of Electronic System Operators (TDPSE) from the Ministry of Communication and Information and Trade Business Licenses through Electronic Systems (SIUPMSE) from the Ministry of Trade, but the Jombingo website is currently blocked.

The Ministry of Communication and Information will also conduct searches and block sites related to Jombigo based on the recommendations of the Task Force.

"The recommendation of the Task Force to temporarily suspend Jombino activities will be followed up by the Ministry of Trade after the inspection process is completed in accordance with applicable regulations," he added.

Bareskrim Polri will conduct supervision and assistance to East Java Regional Police Investigators and their staff in connection with reports received from the public regarding Jombingo to the East Java Regional Police.

PPATK and Bank Indonesia will also support efforts to handle and resolve problems related to Jombigo.

OJK and the Task Force hope that the public will always pay attention to two important aspects in using sites or applications that offer trade and financial services, namely legal and logical.

Legal means that the product or service offered already has the right business license from the authorities or government agencies that supervise it.

"Logis means always paying attention to the results or benefits offered, whether it makes sense or not," he said.
