JAKARTA - Recently, social media, especially TikTok, is busy with the trend of the Jagat Coin, namely the game of hunting for coins using the Jagat application and exchanging them for gifts.

This game is only available in big cities in Indonesia including Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, and Bali. To play, you must first download the Jagat.oi application.

After that, players can find gold, silver, and bronze coins hidden somewhere by following the instructions on the app and exchanging them for prizes of up to IDR 850 thousand.

But unfortunately, several netizens reported that this game caused many problems, such as damaging public facilities in order to find the coins.

Responding to this issue, the Minister of Communication and Digital Affairs, Meutya Hafid, said that his party would still study more deeply first.

I am also a lot in DM by friends. We have coordinated with the Deputy Minister of Komdigi Pak Angga Raka to follow up on this application. I myself just got input so we will study it first," Meutya told the media on Monday, January 13.

He emphasized that the Director General of Digital Space Supervision of the Ministry of Komdigi, Alexander Sabar, would also explore the application and how the losses and impacts would arise.

"Then also which rules are against the existing laws or regulations, and then we take firm steps if there is a violation of the regulations and also the applicable laws," he said.
