In addition, the government is waiting for Facebook's answer to the second written warning letter (SP II) sent Tuesday, April 10. SP II was sent because Facebook's answer to SP I was not satisfactory. Until now, Facebook also has not given an answer.
"If it (Facebook) is not cooperative means that they do not show good intentions," said Rudiantara.
