JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo was again criticized for not highlighting the use of tear gas when visiting the Kanjuruhan Stadium, Malang, East Java, Wednesday, October 5. Jokowi's attitude is considered contrary to public opinion, both nationally and internationally. Member of the House of Representatives from the Gerindra faction, Fadli Zon, assessed that Jokowi should not deny the reality. Because, the world also highlights the tragedy that killed 131 people because it could not be separated from the use of tear gas sprayed by the authorities. Where, after the Arema vs Persebaya match, the audience panicked and were crammed into trying to get off the field to get rid of the pain from the tear gas. As a result, hundreds of supporters experience shortness of breath. This is also highlighted by the world, as evidenced by the large number of well-known media who call the use of tear gas a factor in unrest in Kanjuruhan. "I think the world is highlighting now that even important world newspaper such as the Washington Post, the New York Times just concluded that (the cause) was tear gas," Fadli Zon told reporters, Friday, October 7. "So in my opinion, don't let us do denial (determination) later, but the world sees otherwise," he added. According to the Deputy Chairperson of the Gerindra Party, it is necessary to be open in handling the Kanjuruhan tragedy. Because, football solidarity around the world is monitoring the incident. "If it's wrong, it's just wrong. I think it's clear that the use of tear gas is wrong. Someone must be responsible, and someone must be punished,” said Fadli. The chairman of the DPR BKSAP also suspected that the Kanjuruhan stadium facilities were also inadequate. So, it should have happened on October 1 yesterday that it did not take many lives. "It feels like the issue of stairs and locked doors will not be deadly. If you concede the most broken legs or sprains, ” said Fadli. It is known that President Joko Widodo did not mention any tear gas shots by the police in his statement while visiting the Kanjuruhan Stadium in Malang, East Java, Wednesday, October 5. When speaking to reporters, Jokowi only said that he saw the stairs were too sharp and the locked stadium doors became a problem in the Kanjuruhan tragedy. Jokowi said, all findings in the field will be investigated by the Independent Fact Findings Joint Team (TGIPF). Meanwhile, Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Mahfud MD has straightened out about President Jokowi not mentioning the tear gas as the cause of the Malang Village Tragedy, East Java. Mahfud assessed that the issue arose because it misinterpreted Jokowi's statement while reviewing the Kanjuruhan Stadium. Jokowi, said Mahfud, did not talk about tear gas because he was checking the condition of the stadium where the tragedy killed at least 131 people. "The president before that visited a hospital. The President said the cause was not only that, but instead talked about shortness of breath, spraying, tear gas as well," Mahfud said on Najwa Shihab's Youtube account, Thursday, October 6, evening.
