Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Ministry of Communication and Informatics (Kominfo) has opened a public consultation for the community to provide feedback on a draft ministerial regulation that regulates game classification.

The draft will replace Ministerial Regulation No. 11 of 2016 concerning the Classification of Electronic Interactive Games, which still refers back to Government Regulation No. 82 of 2012.

In a statement received in Jakarta on Friday, Kominfo stated that the draft was prepared to implement the provisions in the Draft Presidential Regulation on the Acceleration Program for the Development of the National Game Industry.

The draft ministerial regulation on game classification includes obligations for game publishers, criteria for content and age groups of game users.

It also covers game supervision, game classification committees, the rights of game users to file complaints, and administrative sanctions against publishers.

The public consultation will be open until August 5, 2023, and the public can provide input to Kominfo via email to tu.setditjen_aptika@kominfo.go.id or tu.dittakel_aptika@kominfo.go.id.
