Description
25 August, TV Pertiwi, an online platform, declined the request from the Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to remove six pieces of content. TV Pertiwi argued that MCMC has not clearly stated the legal violations in relation to the content and is seeking concrete evidence from MCMC.
This comes after access to the online platform was blocked by MCMC on 17 August. Additionally, TV Pertiwi's TikTok account was blocked for repeatedly violating community guidelines.
