JAKARTA - Several tech companies have expressed their commitment to working with the Indonesian government in creating a safe digital environment for children, following the plan to impose age restrictions on social media platforms to follow in the footsteps of Australia.
The initiative from President Prabowo Subianto’s administration has been welcomed by lawmakers because of numerous studies revealing the adverse impacts of social media use on the younger generation.
