"As soon as the video went up, we immediately coordinated with the PDRM and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs here. From there a statement came out from the Malaysian Embassy. That was the result of our coordination with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in order to reduce the situation we see now because it is busy in the media and there are many comments," he said.

Yoshi emphasized that he would resolve this case in accordance with the applicable legal provisions.

"We'll see. The process just flows. We entrust it to the Malaysian side. We entrust the Malaysian PDRM to investigate this matter. So let it go like that. We will continue to monitor it," he said.

"The fact is there is. If it injures, yes, but we have to look again. The actions taken are sensitive, of course, provocative. It can affect the already good relations of people to people and Indonesia - Malaysia. So don't be provoked. What is clear is that we trust the law. . Their response was also fast. We appreciate it, "he said.
