The Urgency of Cybercrime, Kemenkominfo Launches Digital Literacy Campaign

This has become an urgency for the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (Kemenkominfo). Considering that Indonesia itself is one of the countries with the highest number of internet users.

Based on data from the 2023 Statistics, Indonesia ranks 4th as the country with the largest internet users in the world. In the same period, data from the Association of Indonesian Internet Service Providers (APJII) states that the internet is accessed by more than 215 million people, or equivalent to 78% of the Indonesian population.

Therefore, the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (Kemenkominfo) launched the Makin Cakap Digital 2024 campaign with the tagline #MakinHepii. This program is aimed at the community, especially young people, to improve their understanding of literacy and the dangers of digital crime.

"Digital literacy program is providing insights, knowledge, and understanding on how to utilize the developing digital technology,"

said the Director of Informatics Empowerment of the Ministry of Communication and Information, Slamet Santoso, at the launch of the campaign Makin Cakap Digital 2024 #MakinHepii, Ibis Styles Tanah Abang Hotel, Jakarta, Friday, April 26, 2024.

There are four pillars targeted through the Makin Cakap Digital 2024 campaign, namely digital skill, digital ethic, digital safety, and digital culture.

Slamet stated, the program is important for our entire society, especially for young people to obtain such materials. "We make the internet and social media more joyful, inspiring many people to be more positive and even productive," he explained.

The strategy is carried out by the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology by involving actress Aurelie Moeremans and comedian Nopek Novian who represent the younger generation. Both of them are involved as talents of Makin Cakap Digital #MakinHepii, with music produced by the multi-talented artist, Jui Purwoto.

Not without reason did the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology choose the three of them, because they are considered active and have the power to educate the millennial and generation through their respective platforms.

"According to me, this campaign is very good because social media can indeed make people happier and I use my social media account to share positive things. I often share positive information to influence society, for example, about animal and environmental conservation."

said Aurelie Moeremans.

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags: "This Belgian-blooded actress also conveyed the danger of digital fraud that is still experienced by many close colleagues. Therefore, Aurelie recommends following the Instagram account of the Ministry of Communication and Information Literacy because it teaches a lot about positive social media."

Nopek Novian also conveyed, the content that was created is indeed intended to make those who see it happier. Through his characteristic of using Javanese language in comedy, Nopek successfully creates entertaining content in collaboration with other influencers. Report: Muhammad Taufiqur Rohman
