TANGERANG - The Minister of Defense (Menhan) of the Republic of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto responded to hate speech from Youtuber, Edy Mulyadi who called himself a Meow Tiger.

Prabowo admitted that he did not care about the statement. According to him, there is already a section that takes care of the case.

"Someone has already taken care of it," Prabowo told reporters at the Taruna TMP, Tangerang City, Wednesday, January 26

For information, a number of parties have called for the police to arrest Edy Mulyadi through videos spread on social media. Edy Mulyadi's statement is considered to have cornered Prabowo.

"How can the Minister of Defense not understand this? A three-star general. A tiger that looks like meowing. Just don't understand it. Hello, Prabowo? Prabowo Subianto, can you hear my voice? That's not included in the calculation, are you the Minister of Defense?" he exclaims in the video.

Not only that, Edy Mulyadi also mentioned words that were considered an insult to the people of Kalimantan. He made these remarks as a protest against the discourse of a new capital city in Kalimantan.

"Can you understand, this is an elite place that has its own, which is expensive, has its own building, then is sold and moved to a place where the genie disposes of children," said Edy.

For Edy, people will not want to build property in Kalimantan because the market in Kalimantan, he said, is only a spirit creature.

"Whose market, if the market is kuntilanak, genderuwo, why did I wake up there," he said.
