The rise of illegal imported cloth that was smuggled from China to Indonesia to be traded made the majority of people restless and feel disadvantaged. You see, the quality of illegal import textile materials is not of high quality.

Law enforcement officials, one of which is the Indonesian Attorney General's Office, are urged to dismantle thousands of mafia owners of textile businesses who do not comply with the rules by smuggling thousands of tons of textiles with a value of trillions of rupiah into Indonesia.

The Director of Indonesia Mafia Watch (IMW), Eka, urged law enforcement officials, especially the Attorney General's Office, to dismantle the practice of the textile mafia which has cost the state up to trillions of rupiah from not depositing the import tax on goods.

"We urge law enforcement officials led by high-ranking officials who are trying to prove the integrity of their institutions to uncover textile mafia practices, such as previously revealed cases," Eka said at a press conference.

It is suspected that one of the textile mafias that has an effect on the circulation of illegal tektsil in Indonesia is an Indonesian citizen of Indian descent with the initials D, V, J, T, R, and L.

This was conveyed by the Director of Indonesia Mafia Watch (IMW) based on information and monitoring of Indonesian Mafia Watch (IMW) activists in the field.

As a result of the large number of textile mafias, this can harm and affect the textile industry in Indonesia.

According to Eka, if the smuggling passes into Indonesia, it will erode the domestic textile market.

Previously, the team of the Attorney General's Office for Special Crimes (Pidsus Kejagung) confiscated 19 containers related to the port mafia case, namely the Case of Alleged Corruption Abuse of Authority and Receipt of Money in connection with the Abuse of Bonded Area Facilities through Tanjung Priok Port and Tanjung Emas in 2015 2021.
