It gets a lot of comments on social media. After much discussion, Rahma again uploaded a status stating that he apologized and did not intend to insult the Garuda Pancasila symbol.

"Dear netizens, I wake up early in the morning and I check all my social media accounts full of blasphemous comments because I am considered to have insulted Pancasila, I apologize if there is a misunderstanding. Please understand, I do not mean to insult the national symbol of the Garuda Pancasila bird. what I mean is a satire to criticize current developments. I am referring to the fictional country of Wakanda (if that country exists) not at all the Garuda bird as a whole. If many are not pleased, I apologize once again. yesterday, "he wrote.
