Police should improve the ability to create sophisticated technology.
Minister of Communications and Information Tifatul Sembiring threatened to shut down the BlackBerry. In addition to not being able to block pornographic content, Research In Motion (RIM) as a provider of BlackBerry services in Indonesia, does not provide access for law enforcement Indonesia. House of Representatives Commission III on Legal Affairs assessing Tifatul step is not appropriate.
"That's not true. BlackBerry was chosen because it has the advantage of consumers are not easily tracked, thus ensuring freedom," said a member of Commission III of the PDIP faction, Eva Kusuma Sundari, to VIVAnews.com, Sunday, January 9, 2010.
According to Eva, not exactly when finally the Indonesian government on the pretext of reducing crime and shut the BlackBerry service. Instead, he said, the Indonesian government to make technology more advanced than that.
"If this state intervention, we can laugh at other countries. The State should not lose the same technology. The State should be more robust," said local member of Parliament from the East Java election this VII.
For Eva, the government including the police should increase the ability to create sophisticated technology. Not then asked the RIM to open access to communications data crime.
Eva assess if the government finally shut down the BlackBerry due to the reasons above, it will damage the business standard. But whether the BlackBerry also allows the terrorists to take action and their networks?
"But at the same time, they are pro-democracy also use the BlackBerry. Rarely damaged grip that business," said the politician graduate of the University of Nottingham, UK, this.
Previously, Tifatul said there are seven reasons why the government urged the BlackBerry to be closed. One of them due to lack of access for law enforcement to BlackBerry data.
"We ask RIM to place a server or a repeater in Indonesia. So law enforcement officials can access and investigate the communication of data relating to crime in Indonesia," said Tifatul Sembiring to VIVAnews.com, Sunday, January 9, 2010.
