JAKARTA – The Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology (Kemendikti Saintek) has ordered every element of universities to help the government’s efforts to eradicate online gambling.

“The Ministry of Education and Technology, Saintek, has ordered every element in public and private universities to try to prevent the involvement of lecturers, students, and education personnel from being involved in online gambling,” said Minister of Higher Education, Saintek Satryo Soemantri Brodjonegoro on Thursday, November 21 at the Komdigi office, Jakarta.

This order came after the Ministry of Education and Technology found that hundreds of students in Indonesia had become victims of the cruelty of online gambling.

Menteri Mendikti Saintek, Satryo, ada sekitar 960 ribu kelompok pelajar dan mahasiswa yang terlibat dalam aktivitas judi online. Ia juga memerintahkan perguruan tinggi untuk memberikan rehabilitasi kepada mahasiswa dan pelajar yang terdampak judi online.

Those affected were subjected to rehabilitation efforts, and those who had to be hospitalized or treated for mental weaknesses, each university was obliged to rehabilitate and help restore the condition of the patient, continued Satryo.

However, Satryo said that the treatment of each patient may be different, depending on the high level of their trauma.

“Depending on the trauma experienced by students, most are treated by psychologists to restore the child’s mindset,” he continued.

After that, every university also has a responsibility to ensure that victims are no longer trapped in online gambling.
