JAKARTA - The chairman of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Gembong Warsono, revealed that the tablet used by members of his faction, Cinta Mega, to play games in the plenary meeting room is an asset belonging to the Secretariat of the DKI Jakarta DPRD as a work facility for council members.

So, Gembong felt that his party did not need to check or confiscate the tablet that Cinta Mega brought in yesterday's plenary meeting.

"That's an asset of the DPRD that is lent to members of the council, it's impossible for us to confiscate it. But we have discussed it, it is impossible for the traces (of the game platform played by Cinta Mega) to remain. Don't worry about that," said Gembong when met in the PDIP Faction room, DKI Jakarta DPRD Building, Friday, July 21.

From the results of the meeting of the PDIP faction leadership, Gembong said that his party entrusted the clarification and defense of its faction member, Cinta Mega, who played games in the plenary meeting room yesterday.

Many think Cinta Mega is playing a slot gambling platform through a video of a plenary meeting circulating. However, Cinta Mega denied it. He admitted that he only had time to play a puzzle game called Candy Crush.

"We believe 100 percent of what you have said, you love Mega. Is it true or not, yes, it's Mother Cinta Mega's business. When we called her, she stated that she didn't play slots, but she played games. That's what was conveyed to me," said Gembong.

Gembong also admitted that he believed Cinta Mega's claim that she was playing games on the device. The delay in the plenary meeting schedule resulted in Cinta Mega, who came at the beginning, waiting longer.

Thus, Cinta Mega felt bored and played games on the tablet that she brought to the plenary meeting room since before the meeting began. However, to Gembong, Cinta claimed that the game was not played when the plenary meeting began.

"The explanation is that Mrs. Cinta Mega is like this, 'I played games before the plenary implementation. When the plenary started, I didn't do that game. So I put the iPad next to it', that's the explanation," explained Gembong.

However, Gembong stated that his party continued to impose sanctions in the form of a strong written warning for violating ethics as a member of the council in carrying out his work.

"For yesterday's incident, the PDI-P faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD gave strict sanctions, giving a stern warning to the person concerned, namely Ibu Cinta Mega because she had done something that should not be done in a plenary meeting," he said.

At yesterday's plenary meeting, Cinta Mega sat in the back row of members of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, wearing pink suit.

At that time, a plenary meeting presenting the Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono had begun. The meeting began to open by Deputy Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD Zita Anjani and had only been running for eight minutes.

Then, DKI Jakarta DPRD member Bambang Kusumanto proposed an interruption. It's just that, Bambang's table microphone is problematic and first repaired.

When Bambang's table microphone was repaired, the atmosphere of the plenary meeting was quite quiet. At this momentum, it appears that the game display is being played on a tablet on the table where Cinta Mega takes it to the paripuna meeting room. When Heru Budi read his speech, the game display on the Cinta Mega tablet screen is still running.

This has become the talk of netizens on social media. Based on the video observations circulating, many netizens call Cinta Mega playing gambling games or slots. However, Cinta Mega denied it.

Cinta Mega claimed that she had played a puzzle game called Candy Crush when the plenary meeting had not yet started.

Cinta Mega admitted to playing games because she was tired of waiting for the time to start the delayed meeting. Supposedly, the plenary meeting was held at 13.00 WIB. However, the meeting only started at around 14.30 WIB.

"Please. This is a clarification. Earlier we were waiting for the plenary session. I played Candy Crush before the plenary session. There was no such thing as gambling," said Cinta Mega to reporters, Thursday, July 20.

However, when the meeting started, Cinta Mega admitted that she forgot to close the game she had previously played. "After the plenary meeting started, I forgot to turn it off (the game). I didn't play. I immediately listened to the meeting. (The device) was just placed on the table," explained Cinta Mega.
