Social media users in Indonesia currently reach 191 million people, an increase from last year which reached 170 million people. This figure is very large, moreover there are only 7 countries in the world that have residents over 191 million, namely China, India, America, Indonesia, Pakistan, Brazil, and Nigeria.
As said by a member of the Indonesian Regional Representative Council (DPD) DIY Gusti Kanjeng Ratu Hemas in the Pancasila/Angkringan National Angkringan Socialization at the Yogyakarta PGRI University Auditorium (UPY), Saturday (16/4 /2022). The activity was packed with an angkringan dialogue while lifting the local wisdom of Jogja which is famous for its angkringan. This angkringan dialogue package can melt the atmosphere so as not to be saturated.
According to Hemas, social media greatly influences the minds of the younger generation. & ldquo; we must be careful so that our national politics is not damaged, because of the easy people to use social media and spread information. We must continue to put the spirit of the country, in line with the spirit of tolerance, anti -violence, harmony, and local wisdom that we already have. We must prioritize this spirit in using digital technology and social media, & RDQUO; he said.
UPY students are invited to be clear in addressing the existing conditions so as not to be easily provoked. Hemas also advised that in using social media, a negative impact that can be caused.
& ldquo; we must be very thorough in seeing hoaxes, which can now be made with video edits or image edits simply. We better share positive content, or educational content, not provocation content that can ignite public anger, & rdquo; he said.
In addition, Hemas also advised the younger generation, especially students to always move in positive things. Lots of sports and art activities that can be followed. Even now coupled with e-sports whose competition has been held everywhere, and there are also competition at the international level.
as a senator and as the mother of the people of Yogyakarta, GKR Hemas continues to support various positive activities. The development of digital technology does direct the community to move there. E-sports, tiktok, digital finance, and social media with video platforms cannot be avoided.
& ldquo; we must adjust, if not, will be crushed by the times, & rdquo; he concluded.
Meanwhile, Vice Rector 3 UPY for Student Affairs and Cooperation, Dr. Septian Aji Permana, M.Pd said, & LDQUO; The existence of a UPY student dialogue with this MPR is a form of UPY student learning to express an elegant opinion, & rdquo; he explained. (PEB)
