In Japan, a gorilla named Kiyomasa got into a fight with his mate. She kicked him out of their enclosure at the zoo, and he was later spotted sitting alone, seemingly rethinking his life choices
The house where Indonesia's first president staunchly hid for months to avoid collaborating with the Japanese in early WW2, is now a Japanese Udon restaurant.

Jadi inget "At the end of the game, the king and the pawn go into the same box.” (Italian proverb)
Saya sih nggak terlalu kaget soal isu sensitif istana yang lagi beredar. Yang justru bikin saya kaget adalah fakta bahwa ternyata Komdigi bisa secanggih itu.
Bisa gerak cepat. Bisa responsif. Bisa menekan platform besar. Bisa bikin akses media sekelas YouTube/Google ikut kena tindakan (walaupun masih bisa diakses lewat VPN h3h3). Bisa bikin pernyataan resmi (padahal target subyek pembahasan di video bukan Komdigi, tapi Komdigi rela nyebokin).
Bahkan bisa sigap ambil langkah hukum dan bisa bypass aturan MK soal pedoman UU ITE yang nggak bisa digugat oleh badan/instansi.
Berarti kemampuan teknisnya ada.
Dan kalau kemampuan itu memang ada, harusnya ruang digital kita bisa jauh lebih bersih dari sekarang.
Harusnya iklan penipuan nggak semudah itu lewat. Harusnya nomor pribadi masyarakat nggak seenaknya dipakai SMS promosi.
Harusnya data kita nggak gampang bocor lalu dipakai buat nawarin pinjaman, j*dol, investasi bodong, sampai lowongan kerja palsu. Harusnya platform-platform digital yang merugikan masyarakat juga bisa ditindak dengan kecepatan yang sama.
Karena ternyata masalahnya bukan karena negara ini nggak punya alat. Alatnya ada. Jalurnya ada. Kapasitasnya ada.
Cuma selama ini kita terlalu sering melihat teknologi negara bekerja cepat ketika yang terganggu adalah kekuasaan, bukan ketika yang dirugikan adalah masyarakat.
Karena ternyata tombolnya memang ada.
Cuma rakyat sering kebagian tulisan:
“mohon menunggu”.
Tapi yaa kita sama-sama paham lah ya, kenapa isu-isu krusial yang lain terkesan sulit diberantas.
Sekelas warung remang-remang saja mesti "koordinasi" dulu biar bisnisnya tetap jalan.
Paham kan ya..

KitKat is owned by Nestlé.
Nestlé is one of the most unethical companies in the world.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Nestlé wanted to grow its infant formula sales in developing countries, especially in Africa. So they came up with a strategy.
They gave free baby formula to new mothers and promoted it as better than mother’s milk.
At first, it seemed helpful. But it was not.
The free supply lasted just long enough for many mothers to stop producing their own milk. Once it ended, they had no natural option left and had to depend on formula.
But many of these mothers were poor. They could not afford to keep buying it. So they tried to stretch it by adding more water and less powder.
This led to weak and undernourished babies.
It got worse because many of them did not even have clean water or proper conditions to prepare the formula safely. Babies fell sick. Some even died.
And Nestlé did not even provide proper instructions. No clear guidance in local languages. No support for mothers who could not read.
They knew the risks. They still continued.
They only reacted when Western countries protested and boycotted them.
Even today, they are not fully ethical. And people still eat KitKat.
