"Why is it important for the TNI to be important, we see illegal economies, including illegal mines, including at the border. It seems that law enforcers need to be helped because of difficult situations, sometimes they are backed up by extraordinary forces, so extraordinary actions must also be taken. Without it will not work," said Ganjar.
