Police Criticized Focus on Publicizing Artist Names, Not Muncikari

SURABAYAPAGI.com, Jakarta - The pioneer of infotainment journalism in the country, Ilham Bintang, criticized the East Java Regional Police (Polda), which seemed to emphasize the publication of online prostitution on two artists, VA and SA. In contrast, the police did not explicitly reveal pimps and tenants of services. "I judge the case is not clear about the case. First, who is the artist dealing with? Who hired him? Who sprung it? So the disclosure of this case feels too light, "Ilham said to Surabayapagi.com on Sunday night (6/1). Ilham said the publication of two capital city artists, but later released would raise questions. He, the step of letting go of both shows that both of them did not violate the law. However, since the beginning of the disclosure, the police have herded them both so that the names of the two artists became damaged. Ilham also assessed that there was a gender bias in disclosing this case because the businessman called hiring was immediately released. He added that this case increasingly made it unclear the mode and definition of online prostitution. "It’s as if the artist is easy to do that, while the businessman called hire is released. This is like a gender bias, "he said. In addition to criticizing the pattern of disclosure of cases, Ilham also questioned the involvement of two artists. According to Ilham, artists are now adept at using social media so they can get advertisements through social media accounts like Instagram. This advertising trend through this Instagram account is often termed endorsement. According to him, the income from endorsement business is very large depending on the number of followers. Because of that, he considered it odd if the young artists today who throw themselves into the world of prostitution in order to get additional rupiah coffers. "This is a paradox," he said. rk
