JAKARTA - Edy Mulyadi has been named a suspect in the hate speech case regarding Kalimantan, where the genie dumped their child. Edy Mulyadi was immediately arrested.

So once again, the person concerned has been arrested and detained," said Karo Penmas of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Brigadier General Ahmad Ramadhan to reporters, Monday, January 31.

Edy Mulyadi fulfills the summons to investigate the hate speech case for his statement that Kalimantan is where the genie dumped his child. Because he suspected that he would be detained by the police after the investigation, Edy Mulyadi had prepared clothes in a yellow bag.

"I brought this here," said Edy Mulyadi showing a yellow tote bag to reporters at the National Police Criminal Investigation Unit, Jakarta, Monday, January 31.

Edy Mulyadi then spoke about his apology to the people of Kalimantan, his refusal to move the new state capital to East Kalimantan to the exploitation of Kalimantan's resources without benefiting the people of Kalimantan.

"Yes, I suspect (immediately arrested, ed). But I didn't expect it," said Edy Mulyadi about his hunch.

Edy Mulyadi firmly refused to move the State Capital because it was considered that a lot of money would be wasted.

"Still rejecting IKN because IKN has a lot of studies, the important thing is that this amount of money is not timely, it should be for the welfare of the people, for national economic development, to pump up the domestic economy," said Edy Mulyadi.

According to Edy Mulyadi, IKN will worsen the already damaged ecology in Kalimantan. It is pointed out that there are many locations of ex-mining excavations without land rehabilitation.

"I'm very sorry that Kalimantan has been exploited for decades, how many billions of tons of coal have been transported, how many hectares have the forests been cut down, transported, how many thousand or million hectares of customary lands have been confiscated?" he said.

"I'm sorry again, my brothers and sisters, the people of Borneo, should be far more prosperous than us on the island of Java, because they should have got a share but we know with all due respect and sorry, my friends, all of our friends in Kalimantan are still far away. from the life that should be with the extraordinary potential of natural resources that were dredged," he explained.
