JAKARTA - A newly formed government task force responsible for curtailing online gambling has ramped up efforts to eradicate the practice by freezing bank accounts and payment services allegedly used for betting as it investigates the cases.
The task force, established last week, includes representatives from the National Police and the Communications and Information Ministry, among other state institutions.
