The inspection was carried out after his party received information from the local community.

"We have received reports from the public. Because now there are more issues with foreign workers whose data as workers, it turns out that they open online gambling, there are also those who open cafes and so on, that's our anticipation," said Safari.

According to Safari, PT Warlbor International Indonesia which is engaged in the production of pahpir (cigarette pack paper) has not been able to show a permit to employ foreign workers from China.

"When we asked them they produce cigarette paper, which makes cigarette packs, not cigarettes. There is also news about the production of electric cigarettes. Therefore, we look directly at the company, what the company has," he said.
