JABAR - Acting Governor of West Java (Jabar) Beyvi Machmudin emphasized that violating the rules of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) including being involved in online gambling could be subject to the heaviest sanctions in the form of dismissal.
"Yes, of course it (there is a sanction). The heaviest sanctions can reach dismissal," said Bey after a meeting with the Bogor Regency apparatus in Cibinong, Bogor, West Java, Thursday, June 27, which was confiscated by Antara.
Regarding the rise of online gambling in West Java, even the number of exposures is the highest in Indonesia, which includes government officials from various agencies, including ASN until the discourse on establishing the Online Judi Task Force, Bey said that his party was still in the stage of coordinating.
Given, said Bey, in principle, government officials have had their own specific duties, including supervisory tasks to prosecution.
"But if we think the task force is more effective, we will create a task force. But the important thing is, how not to let there be a task force but online gambling does not decrease. So we (now) still use coordination first, including the issue of the Online Judi Task Force," he said.

The reason, he said, is that online gambling is not a physical gambling practice that can be reported to local regional administrators such as the Head of RT and Head of RW for further action, so this issue requires broad cross-sector coordination.
"This can't be done. It could be sitting around like this playing online gambling, right? It's related to the network as well as to what kind of transaction. So the coordination is very broad and we will seriously address this, especially with law enforcement officials and also with Kominfo who understand the network," he said.
Previously, Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Hadi Tjahjanto revealed that the area with the largest number of online gambling transactions, based on data from the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK), showed West Java was in first position with a total transaction of IDR 3.8 trillion.
Even based on existing information, West Java is also the province with the most citizens exposed to online gambling, reaching 535,644 people.
