[00:00:51] Eyewitnesses of the search, namely the local
[00:00:55] neighborhood head, confirmed that the officers who conducted the search were

[00:01:47] who canceled his departure. Since
[00:01:50] the incident, the family could not contact him until Rino was

[00:02:04] cries erupted when the coffin arrived, and even one of
[00:02:07] the deceased's children fainted when the body was lowered
[00:02:11] from the ambulance. The body was flown from Surabaya
[00:02:15] to Makassar. However, the journey to the funeral home
[00:02:18] was hampered by a damaged bridge, so the coffin

[00:03:30] Sir, wait a moment. Let me prepare inaugurated the July Uprising Memorial Museum
[00:03:33] in Gonobaban, which displays documents,
[00:03:36] photos, and historical items related to the protest wave.
[00:04:09] Siang with information about a complaint from a BPJS Kesehatan
[00:04:13] participant who claimed that he had to wait up to 8 hours to
[00:04:16] get an inpatient room that went viral on social media. Yes,
[00:04:20] that complaint then drew cynical comments from a number
[00:04:24] of accounts allegedly belonging to health workers, including a doctor who
[00:04:27] referred to the morgue as the most available
[00:04:30] place.
[00:04:35] This incident sparked public outrage, especially after the patient
[00:04:38] named Yurizal Tri Herawan was known to have died
[00:04:42] three days later. The doctor who was in the spotlight
[00:04:46] has issued an open apology and admitted to regretting
[00:04:49] his comments.
[00:05:01] Good evening, everyone. My name is Beni Christian Sihombing. I want
[00:05:05] to apologize for my
[00:05:08] comments on social media. I also want to
[00:05:12] express my deepest condolences to
[00:05:16] the owner of the thread, the late Yurizal. I
[00:05:19] pray that all his family will be
[00:05:22] comforted. I take full responsibility for all
[00:05:26] the writings I made, and if later
[00:05:29] there is a legal process, I will follow it without
[00:05:32] defense or hiring a lawyer. I will not
[00:05:36] do that. I also accept all the consequences from
[00:05:38] the hospital, from the ID, or the MK-MK or the court or
[00:05:42] any other institution. I only
[00:05:45] have, and I only have one
[00:05:49] thread account and also one Instagram account. There is no second
[00:05:51] account, and my Instagram will not be private.
[00:05:55] I have not deleted any comments, and if possible, I
[00:05:59] will read all those comments because indeed,
[00:06:03] I made a mistake and I deserve it.
[00:06:06] There is no clarification. I apologize
[00:06:10] for causing this commotion, and I also apologize
[00:06:13] profusely to my colleagues, all the doctors who provide
[00:06:17] education on social media for ruining
[00:06:20] that effort. I hope that in the future, I will
[00:06:23] be wiser in using
[00:06:26] social media.
[00:06:29] Until now, there has been no official statement indicating that the patient's death
[00:06:33] is related to the delay in obtaining a treatment
[00:06:35] room.
[00:06:43] Moving on to other information, viewers. The mystery of the death of a doctor in Siak
[00:06:46] Regency, Riau, has finally been revealed. Siak Police
[00:06:49] revealed that Dr. Alex Kristoloris ended his life due to psychological
[00:06:53] factors. In a press conference, Siak Police Chief
[00:06:57] AKBP Sepuh Adirsyam Siregar presented a forensic doctor
[00:07:00] from Riau Regional Police, a psychologist from Riau Islamic University, and
[00:07:03] the Siak Police Criminal Investigation Unit.
[00:07:06] The Police Chief explained that there were no signs of violence
[00:07:10] on Dr. Alex's body when he was found next to Tengku Raf Regional Hospital.
[00:07:14] Near the victim, a bag was found containing various medical equipment
[00:07:17] such as a stethoscope, several anesthetic drugs, and syringes.
[00:07:20] Meanwhile, based on
[00:07:24] all evidence, witness statements, autopsy, and forensic
[00:07:27] psychological examination, it was concluded that the victim died due to
[00:07:31] mental pressure that made him desperate to end his life. Siak also
[00:07:34] revealed allegations that the victim was entangled
[00:07:38] in online loans. It is known that Alex was currently participating
[00:07:41] in a specialist doctor residency program in anesthesiology,
[00:07:45] clearly a male.
[00:07:47] Yes, this is just a moment.
[00:07:50] This is comprehensive,
[00:07:52] isn't it?
[00:07:55] From all the examination results, it can be concluded
[00:07:59] that
[00:08:01] the death of the late
[00:08:05] Dr. Alex Kristoloris was caused by
[00:08:07] the discovery of a deadly substance
[00:08:10] in the victim's
[00:08:14] caused by an act committed
[00:08:18] by the late
[00:08:21] Dr. Alex himself.
[00:08:24] Police arrested the perpetrator suspected of murder accompanied by
[00:08:29] was found in a field in Pancoran Mas, Depok. The perpetrator
[00:08:33] was arrested in the Pandeglang Banten area while trying
[00:08:36] to escape.
[00:08:42] diri.
[00:08:48] Residents of Pancoran Mas, Depok, West Java, were shocked by the discovery of a man's body
[00:08:52] in a sack with his hands tied and mutilated, only half
[00:08:55] of the body. The Inavis Team of Depok Metro Police immediately conducted
[00:08:59] a crime scene investigation after receiving a report from
[00:09:03] the community about the finding
[00:09:05] of a body
[00:09:08] in Pancoran Mas. The information we obtained
[00:09:11] was about...
[00:09:42] The perpetrator was apprehended in Sinar Laut Village
[00:09:45] in the Panimbangan
[00:09:48] Pandeglang area. The evidence we have secured
[00:09:51] includes the victim's cellphone,
[00:09:55] and then money from the
[00:09:58] sale of the cellphone and the victim's motorcycle.
[00:10:01] Previously, an eyewitness at the crime scene said that the sack
[00:10:05] had been visible for some time. Because it emitted
[00:10:08] a smell, residents burned it, and it turned out to contain a body.
[00:10:13] Well, since yesterday, there was a sack there since the 24th.
[00:10:16] Since the 24th, there was a sack like that, sent as trash,
[00:10:20] so the residents here just left it alone until earlier,
[00:10:23] with the children. Dry, so it was finally burned. After
[00:10:27] it was burned, the sack melted. The sack melted,
[00:10:30] and then the body was visible. To
[00:10:33] identify the victim and determine the exact cause of death,
[00:10:36] the victim's body is currently at the Polik Rahmat Jati Hospital for an
[00:10:40] autopsy process with the forensic medical team. Metro TV
[00:10:44] reporting team.
[00:10:47] Viewers, the joint search and rescue team evacuated
[00:10:50] the bodies of climber Malya Vinda and her guide, Irfan Nasrul
[00:10:53] Laili, from Mount Piramid, Bondowoso, East Java. The difficult
[00:10:57] terrain made the evacuation process take up to 13
[00:11:00] hours. Previously, two climbers of Mount Piramid
[00:11:04] in Curahdami District, Bondowoso, were found
[00:11:07] dead after losing contact for 2 days.
[00:11:10] The evacuation process by the SAR team took
[00:11:14] 2 days due to difficult terrain and weather conditions
[00:11:17] in the field. Bondowoso Police Chief AKBP Aryo
[00:11:21] Dwi Wibowo, who led the evacuation operation directly,
[00:11:24] stated, "Both bodies will undergo external
[00:11:27] and forensic examinations at the hospital. Afterward, the bodies
[00:11:31] will be handed over to the family for burial."
[00:11:54] The thing that became
[00:12:12] So that became our challenge, but it did not break
[00:12:15] the spirits of our Potenisar friends to carry out
[00:12:19] the safest lowering technique. With
[00:12:21] that technique, we succeeded and successfully carried out
[00:12:25] the evacuation of both victims. After this, we will go to the Bhayangkara Hospital,
[00:12:29] coordinate with the forensic doctor at the Bhayangkara
[00:12:32] Hospital. If the process is finished
[00:12:35] and the Bhayangkara Hospital states that it can be handed
[00:12:39] over tonight, we will hand it over, including
[00:12:43] the victim's belongings, so that the process
[00:12:45] is truly carried out clearly,
[00:12:49] and the family at the hospital can immediately
[00:12:52] take him home. Viewers,
[00:12:56] the fire in the Bromo savanna area has not been extinguished until
[00:13:00] Wednesday afternoon. In fact, the fire has spread
[00:13:03] to Probolinggo Regency, precisely in Watu Gede block, Sariwani village, Sukapura sub-district.
[00:13:22] The joint team continues to extinguish the fire
[00:13:26] in the Bromo savanna area with improvised
[00:13:28] equipment.
[00:13:32] Based on the latest data, the total area of land burned reached 10
[00:13:35] hectares, a significant increase from the previous
[00:13:39] 7.9 hectares.
[00:13:42] The main reason for the spread of the flames to the Probolinggo area is a combination
[00:13:46] of dry, flammable grass and wind blowing
[00:13:49] eastward. This condition caused the fire to quickly
[00:13:53] spread from its initial point in
[00:13:56] Bantengani block, Sukapura sub-district, Lumajang
[00:14:00] Regency, until it passed through the Pusung Jantur route and entered
[00:14:03] Probolinggo. Several areas were then
[00:14:05] closed.
[00:14:19] the viral video of a female student who was depressed due to
[00:14:22] failing her thesis examination 12 times. The Undana Kupang
[00:14:26] NTT campus confirmed that this is not true. What is true,
[00:14:30] viewers, according to the campus,
[00:14:33] is related to the research seminar
[00:14:36] examination.
[00:14:41] According to the Undana campus, the research seminar
[00:14:45] involves students, supervising lecturers, and examining lecturers,
[00:14:48] resulting in a scheduling adjustment process that
[00:14:52] created the polemic. The campus will soon resolve
[00:14:55] the issue wisely by bringing together
[00:14:58] all parties, such as the student, supervising
[00:15:01] lecturer, and examiner, to find the best solution for
[00:15:05] resolving this issue. The university will also conduct a thorough
[00:15:08] investigation and improve
[00:15:11] academic governance to make it better so that similar incidents
[00:15:15] do not happen
[00:15:16] again.
[00:15:24] We also...
[00:15:26] uh strive to formulate
[00:15:30] improvement recommendations based on the investigation results as
[00:15:33] a basis for improving policies in
[00:15:36] our institution. We standardize operational procedures,
[00:15:40] academic service mechanisms,
[00:15:42] so that similar incidents can be prevented in the
[00:15:45] future and the quality of services for students
[00:15:49] can further improve. The government ensures that the domestic
[00:15:53] security situation is under control amid the rampant spread
[00:15:56] of disinformation and issues that cause public concern
[00:15:59] on social media. The government also continues to coordinate
[00:16:03] with all security and intelligence agencies to monitor the development of the situation. This was
[00:16:06] conveyed the Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal, and Security Affairs, the TNI Commander,
[00:16:10] the National Police Chief, the Attorney General, and the Head of BIN on Wednesday
[00:16:13] afternoon. The Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal, and Security Affairs,
[00:16:17] Jamari Caniago, said that the government continues to monitor
[00:16:21] global developments that have the potential to affect domestic conditions,
[00:16:24] so as not to disrupt the implementation of government priority programs.
[00:16:28] The government is also working hard to protect the community from
[00:16:31] significant impacts due to global geopolitical
[00:16:34] turmoil.
[00:16:40] The domestic situation
[00:16:41] is very
[00:16:45] stable, and all developments occurring
[00:16:49] domestically are still under our control, under the control of
[00:16:52] the commander, under the control of the police chief, and under the control
[00:16:55] of the intelligence. We continue
[00:16:58] to monitor and always
[00:17:01] coordinate to
[00:17:03] refresh
[00:17:06] we face at all
[00:17:08] times.
[00:17:11] The Coordinating Minister also affirmed that the installation of fences in a number
[00:17:15] of malls in Jakarta and Surabaya has nothing to do with security issues. Ahead of the 81st
[00:17:19] anniversary of Indonesia's Independence, the government strengthens synergy
[00:17:22] to maintain a conducive situation.
[00:17:25] And if anyone is caught spreading false news or misleading
[00:17:28] information, they will be
[00:17:32] sanctioned.
[00:17:38] So, as I said earlier, if it happens that there are indications
[00:17:42] and it can meet the provisions of a criminal
[00:17:45] offense, we will do that, and we will take firm action
[00:17:49] for it. The fence installation
[00:17:52] has nothing to do with it. The local
[00:17:55] heads have already resolved it, both in
[00:17:58] Surabaya and possibly in Jakarta. It has no connection
[00:18:01] to the issues being circulated. Rumors will come
[00:18:05] amid the fluctuations in world
[00:18:08] oil prices due to geopolitical conflicts, the government
[00:18:12] strives to keep fuel prices under control. The government ensures
[00:18:16] that the price of subsidized fuel, Pertalite, is safe until
[00:18:19] December 2026.
[00:18:22] This was conveyed by the Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, Airlangga
[00:18:25] Hartarto, in a press conference on Wednesday afternoon. According
[00:18:29] to Airlangga, the government ensures the price of Pertalite fuel.
[00:18:32] tal.
[00:19:11] brothers and sisters. Just now
[00:19:13] we
[00:19:16] finished the correction report regarding
[00:19:19] uh the continued
[00:19:23] meeting last week because our
[00:19:27] target has a short term. The short term is
[00:19:30] 1 month. It must especially
[00:19:33] uh the SPPG in
[00:19:37] the 3T areas, namely
[00:19:40] Papua, NTT, and Maluku,
[00:19:44] which have a lot of stunting and so on. Uh, we
[00:19:48] have just finished. The meeting
[00:19:51] today decided that the 3T will be completed
[00:19:54] this week, because last week we met for 1 month,
[00:19:58] and it turns out that this week, God willing, we can complete
[00:20:02] the 3T. Data collection also
[00:20:04] uh we target it to be
[00:20:07] finished in one month, even before the 10th. From the beginning,
[00:20:11] it was calculated as a month, not last week. Uh, not on the
[00:20:15] 10th, but on the 5th, the 6th, today, a large
[00:20:19] part of it is almost
[00:20:21] done.
[00:20:25] From the Ministry of Health, population, from the
[00:20:28] Ministry of Education, and BGN have connected,
[00:20:32] yes. There are some corrections that will be conveyed by
[00:20:35] the Head of BGN. So, that's done, but there are also some that
[00:20:39] we haven't been able to complete,
[00:20:40] which will take longer.
[00:20:45] 1.5 months more.
[00:20:48] That's
[00:20:50] the number of points of additional points in
[00:20:54] Java, Sumatra, and other islands.
[00:20:58] There are almost 10,000, yes, there are
[00:21:00] 13,000. We need more, uh, more
[00:21:04] time, which means about 1 month to 1.5 months more, so a total
[00:21:08] of 2 months is needed. And today, it was also
[00:21:12] decided
[00:21:15] that religious-based schools
[00:21:18] or pesantren,
[00:21:21] yes, those with more than 100 students
[00:21:24] can build kitchens, but they must meet
[00:21:28] SPPG standards. If it's below that, they must follow
[00:21:30] the nearest SPPG. So that makes it easier. For example,
[00:21:34] a pesantren that has 2,000 students
[00:21:36] or santri who are boarding, perhaps those 2,000 can
[00:21:40] make it within their place, but it must
[00:21:43] be standard with SPPG, which will also have
[00:22:32] Mr. Coordinating Minister, as if we were immediately opening
[00:22:35] 13,000 kitchens. No, it's that we already have about
[00:22:39] 13,000 kitchens
[00:22:42] in our data. All statuses are there. Some are new points,
[00:22:46] some are already finished. So, from this
[00:22:49] data, we overlay it with the Ministry of Health's data
[00:22:53] to see which are priorities, which have very high stunting.
[00:22:57] And we map it, we overlay it with the data of ready
[00:23:00] kitchens. God willing, next week, we will slowly
[00:23:04] release the ones that are ready. From the overlay data,
[00:23:07] there are 1,700,
[00:23:10] yes, uh, data or kitchens that are ready,
[00:23:13] already built, just waiting for operation,
[00:23:16] which are in areas with high and very high stunting.
[00:23:20] We will gradually resolve this. God willing,
[00:23:23] next week, we might activate about 300.
[00:23:27] The week after that,
[00:23:29] so these 13,000 and those
[00:23:33] that are not yet needed, we will go through
[00:23:37] all of them. And then, including the pesantren,
[00:23:40] we also checked what they are like.
[00:23:44] Please don't, I apologize, sometimes a small statement
[00:23:47] can lead to a different understanding. Because of different
[00:23:50] understandings, there are some individuals who, I apologize, Mr. Coordinating Minister,
[00:23:54] sell services at the grassroots level. So I
[00:23:57] assure you, if anyone claims to be anyone
[00:24:00] and can help, I assure you it's a lie.
[00:24:04] So everything is by system, and everything is transparent.
[00:24:08] All decisions have
[00:24:11] been made. What we have now is
[00:24:14] 27,000 plus. We are still sifting through, including the beneficiaries
[00:24:18] in schools. We are sifting through all of them. Once done, next week,
[00:24:22] what is lacking, that is our priority.
[00:24:25] Papua, NTT, Nias, remote areas
[00:24:28] in North Maluku, Maluku,
[00:24:31] they are remote and they really need it. And in this meeting,
[00:24:35] the Coordinating Minister and all ministries and
