MANGGARAI - West Manggarai Regent Edistasius Endi asked residents in the area not to spread hoax news or false information about the tsunami that would occur in the West Manggarai area, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT).
"All official information can be accessed by disaster parties, such as BMKG and BPBD. Do not spread information outside of their official information," said Edistasius Endi in Labuan Bajo, Antara, Tuesday, December 14.
He conveyed this following the large amount of information related to the earthquake that was also felt in Labuan Bajo at 11.20 WITA. Based on information from BMKG, the earthquake with a magnitude of M7.4 was located in the sea at a distance of 112 km northwest of Larantuka City, NTT, at a depth of 10 km.
The BMKG also issued a tsunami early warning with several areas in NTT with the status of Alert and Alert. However, the tsunami early warning expired two hours after the first warning was issued.
The regent, who is familiarly called Edi Endi, asked residents to be wise in using social media and spreading information that was known to be true.
He felt that it was important for residents to do so so as not to spread excessive panic among the community.
"We must remain calm, but vigilant," said Edi.
