"Law enforcement officers must immediately follow up on this matter, take the necessary steps to investigate," said the Speaker of the Indonesian House of Representatives on Thursday (30/1/2025).

According to her, the government through the relevant ministries must also protect the PMI who were victims of the shooting. Furthermore, the government also needs to prevent similar things from happening again.
