Vice President Corporate Communications Kristy Nelwan said that her side had contacted the authority to examine the evidence of the use of the attribute.

“We have made coordination and ready to provide all help and support needed for the investigation process,” said Kristy in a short message to Tempo, Wednesday, November 13.
