Ernest explained that being active on Twitter used to be very fun, but now the fun element has faded. " It was fun, but it's no longer what it used to be," he said.
The producer of the film Agak Laen also added that he felt tired of the social media platform. " I'm tired , many of my friends have also said goodbye to Twitter," he said. So far, Ernest has been known to often highlight government policies and hot social issues.
In the end, Ernest also questioned the luxury watch gift received by the Indonesian National Team after winning against China 1-0 in a match at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium in Jakarta, Thursday (5/6).
" I'm happy for the players who have fought. But as a citizen, it seems natural that I'm confused, they say they're saving, so what budget is this using? " he asked.
