During the opening of the 2013 Indonesia Broadcasting Expo (IBX) in Jakarta, Thursday (18/4), Tifatul Sembiring, Minister of Communications and Information Technology, reminded broadcasting stakeholders to not worship ratings and pay more attention to the content of the programs.
“I hope that the broadcasting stakeholders do not follow ratings in selecting programming,” he stated.
According to Tifatul, broadcasting stakeholders follow the ratings too much, which has an effect on the quality of the programs. Tifatul requested the Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (KPI) to tighten the oversight of the television content and conduct audits of ratings.
Furthermore, Tifatul informed that the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology will be conducting surveys with various universities in order to uncover the public’s opinions regarding programs broadcasted on each domestic television station.
“Ratings for a television broadcast must be thoroughly checked, because we must not easily believe [the ratings],” asserted the Minister.
During the same event, the Minister also inaugurated the Community Movement on Media Awareness (Gerakan Masyarakat Sadar Media – Gemasada).
“This movement invites the public to criticize media development and benefit from it properly and correctly,” stated Tifatul.
The Minister concluded that he expects Gemasada to guide the media to provide informative, educational, and wholesome entertainment.
