Head of the Presidential Communication Office Hasan Nasbi said President Prabowo Subianto requested that the war on online gambling be strengthened.

"Earlier, Mr (President Prabowo) asked for it, so the war with online gambling was strengthened again," Hasan said at the Jakarta Presidential Palace Complex, Monday, February 17, as reported by ANTARA.

Hasan said the President emphasized that the steps taken were not only limited to closing online gambling sites or applications, but also included tracing payment gateways and cash flows related to online gambling practices.

According to Hasan, this shows the government's seriousness in fighting online gambling.

In addition, he said, cooperation with various countries to overcome this problem must also continue, considering that many online gambling operators operate abroad.

"So it's not only alone with Indonesia, but there is also cooperation with various countries," he said.

Hasan said this international cooperation was considered important and was one of the direct orders from President Prabowo.

Today President Prabowo Subianto held a limited meeting as well as lunch with a number of ministers of the Red and White Cabinet at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta.

This new tradition was initiated by President Prabowo as part of efforts to strengthen coordination between ministries in a more relaxed, but productive atmosphere.
