Bandung City Government has issued a strict response to the unauthorized Koin Jagat app, which has caused damage to public facilities in the city. A. Koswara, the Acting Mayor of Bandung, has called on the developers of the app to cease their activities immediately. The users of the app have been using various city parks as locations to hunt for coins, resulting in significant damage to the facilities.
The Impact of the Unauthorized App
Koswara emphasized that the phenomenon of users damaging public facilities, especially city parks, has become a growing concern. Several parks in Bandung have been targeted by app users, leading to the destruction of plants and park amenities. This has prompted the city government to take action to prevent further damage and ensure the preservation of public spaces for all residents.
City Government’s Response
The primary concern highlighted by Koswara is the damage caused to plants and park facilities. Park maintenance teams, including security personnel, are working tirelessly to repair the destruction caused by app users. Additionally, Koswara mentioned that the developers of the app did not seek permission from the Bandung City Government to organize coin-hunting activities in public spaces.
Future Actions and Regulations
Koswara stated that the city government has never received any requests for permission from the app developers. As a result, the matter will be further investigated by the Department of Communication and Information. If it is determined that the activities associated with the app are detrimental to public spaces, appropriate measures will be taken to prohibit them.
Overall, the unauthorized Koin Jagat app has stirred controversy in Bandung, prompting the city government to intervene to protect public facilities and prevent further damage. As residents, it is essential to be mindful of our actions and ensure that our recreational activities do not compromise the well-being of shared spaces.
