JAKARTA - Baim Wong clarified the issue of the incident calling the fathers of beggars who went viral. Baim said, at first when he left the hospital with his son on a motorbike, suddenly the grandfather approached him.

Through Instagram, Baim said that he was being chased by his grandfather and picked up while carrying his son. "And he suddenly asked me for money. If my boss was in my position at that time, maybe his perception would be very different when he saw this incident. From the way he spoke, from the way he asked, it wasn't really that bad,"

Baim also said that at that time he was not angry. "I said sir, not in this way. No. It's not good. And it's not angry."

After that, Baim continued his journey, the old man again shouted at him not to ask for money. "I hate people like that the most. I really don't like it when they make it my weakness, and ask for money right away."

But many netizens criticized Baim Wong's way of showing no sympathy for the old geezers. After all, the old man called Baim followed him, still offering his wares. Not begging.

On the Langit Entertainment YouTube channel, Nikita Mirzani invited the man who turned out to be with Grandpa Suhut to talk. "It's not true what Baim said. I can't possibly chase Baim's big motorbike, while I use an old school motorbike," said Grandpa Suhut, quoted Wednesday, October 13.

Nikita even asked Grandpa Suhut to walk to show how his physical condition was. "This grandfather, the road can't run smoothly. It's impossible to ride a motorbike, according to Baim's motto," said Nikita.

With tears, Grandpa Suhut admitted that he was hurt by being called a beggar. He wants the video removed. "I'm not a beggar. I sell books on Fridays at the Cut Mutia Mosque. I got a lot of calls from people, I couldn't stand to go to my sister's house. I want the video to be deleted. It hurts my heart," he said.

Trying to calm down, Nikita Mirzani explained that the video could be deleted if Grandpa Suhut was not willing to be in Baim Wong's content. "If Grandpa doesn't want it, the video can't be uploaded. There must be permission," said Nikita.
