JAKARTA - The name Komika and director Ernest Prakasa is currently being discussed by citizens. Even his words about minorities some time ago, returned to the perch on Twitter's trending topic today.

In his tweet, he linked an article about the Deputy Governor of DKI which warned against crowds during Christmas and New Year celebrations.
Let our Christian & Catholic friends obey the Deputy Governor. For the minority, just don't obey anything. https://t.co/r2UnP20j83

Unfortunately, Ernest's tweet, which places himself as a minority group and can only follow these rules, has gone viral. Until now, many netizens have re-uploaded Ernest's tweet.
"The minority just obey, don't mess around," he added.
Somehow, Ernest's old tweet was echoed by netizens today. Many even think that Ernest's tweet regarding the ban on Christmas crowds in DKI Jakarta provoked negative sentiment from religious communities. By clashing minority and majority religious groups in Indonesia.
So far the hashtag #Minoritas has been tweeted more than 5,901 times. Warganet is busy commenting and uploading Ernest's tweet a month ago.
In fact, Koh Ernest tweeted about the minority on November 16 and Pak Luhut's statement on December 18. Why is it trending just now ?. pic.twitter.com/7CyzYpT6Lk

The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government has issued Governor's Instruction No. 64/2020 concerning the implementation of control, as well as the Governor's Call No. 17/2020 concerning controlling community activities, to control community mobility and activities, as well as steps to anticipate the emergence of holiday clusters ahead of Christmas National Religious Holidays (HBKN) and New Year 2021.
The move is an extra anticipation from the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government to face the holiday season that has the potential for exposure to the COVID-19 virus. So that the large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) in the transition period that are still in effect will be strengthened by the presence of the Ingub and Sergub.
