Indonesia's Number One Youtuber Marriage Controversy

Recently, the Indonesian people were shocked by the marriage of Youtuber, namely Atta Halilintar and Aurel Hermansyah. This sensational couple has shocked Indonesian netizens with their relationship several years ago. 

Atta Halilintar, who is the Youtuber with the most subscribers in Indonesia, and Aurel Hermansyah, who is the son of top artist Anang Hermansyah, has made Indonesian netizens enthusiastic about their love affair. 

The couple who just got married on April 3 has drawn a lot of controversy in the Indonesian media. They hold a normal marriage like any other artist, but there are things that controversy occurs with their marriage so that the public's attention is highlighted.

Netizens or Indonesian people highlight their marriage because of the person who is the witness of the marriage. The witness of this couple's marriage is the number one person in Indonesia, namely President Joko Widodo and the Indonesian Minister of Defense Prabowo Sugianto. Many highlight this, because these two people are important people in Indonesia who attended the wedding amidst long distancing. 

This brings the public into their thinking about government involvement in this couple's marriage, and many think that the government wants to attract the attention of the two YouTubers' followers. 

There are several tweets from Indonesian artists and celebrities, one of which is Ernest Prakrasa who said "Atta is an influential millennial child in Indonesia, surely many politicians are approaching it so it can be understood" (Hai.grid.com). Some netizens argue that the only people who can organize events are the elite. This is because there are regulations that prohibit and make it difficult for people to organize events but if influential people like them are allowed.

The presence of the president himself is also a trigger in this marriage controversy, in which the president should focus more on the problems currently facing Indonesia and not attend the wedding during this pandemic. The family of Aurel Hermansyah commented that the arrival of President Joko Widodo was a form of the president's concern for his people. 

Then this has reaped a lot of response from the public, some say that the president only cares for the elite or upper-class people. The public began to speculate about the Indonesian government starting to gravitate towards the elite group compared to the common people because during this pandemic the government prohibited the public from holding events that could cause crowds.

Not only that, the main problem that made the marriage controversial was the photo of the president who witnessed the marriage uploaded by the Indonesian State Secretariat Ministry's account on the Instagram and Youtube platforms. 

Many Indonesian netizens take this seriously on the accounting platform of the Ministry of State Secretariat of the Republic of Indonesia. They argue that this should not be on the government's agenda because it is not a State affair. The account is supposed to post matters or issues concerning the agenda of the State. 

It is not a matter of celebrities or artists like this. This gives rise to various kinds of perspectives about the Indonesian government so that many netizens say that the government only cares about the elite people rather than the common people. The account of the Ministry of the State Secretariat of the Republic of Indonesia should not exaggerate this marriage by uploading it especially during sensitive times like now, because the state of Indonesia can be said to be in a bad state.
