Aceh Police Chief Invites Residents to Maintain Public Order and Avoid Gambling During the 2026 World Cup

Aceh Police Chief Invites Residents to Maintain Public Order and Avoid Gambling During the 2026 World Cup

Ahead of the 2026 World Cup on June 11–July 19 in the US, Canada, and Mexico, Aceh Police Chief Inspector General Marzuki Ali Basyah urged residents to keep public order, sportsmanship, and steer clear of gambling. "Let's enjoy the World Cup as entertainment and a way to bond, don't get provoked by differing support," he said in Banda Aceh, Tuesday (6/2/2026). Gambling, whether in person or digital, is a crime. The public is asked not to be overly fanatical, avoid mockery, hate speech, or provocation. Steer clear of excessive euphoria like convoys, firecrackers, and keep things orderly. If your team loses, stay mature and don't turn anarchic. https://www.harianaceh.co.id/2026/06/02/kapolda-aceh-ajak-warga-jaga-kamtibmas-dan-hindari-judi-selama-piala-dunia-2026/

Here’s the thing-sometimes the euphoria gets a bit too much, convoys or firecrackers end up disturbing people who just want to do their night prayers. Hopefully we can all keep things in check together.

Solid, Chief of Police. Reminding people about gambling is super important, especially now with all the online stuff going around. Hope Aceh can really stay clean from all that.

Honestly, I sometimes get a bit annoyed seeing friends from different clubs get into arguments. Remember, keeping the connection is way more important than the final score.

Gambling is indeed haram, but the temptation during big events like this is really tough. May our faith stay strong, aamiin.

Agreed, watching soccer is just for entertainment, don't let it turn into a mess. Where I used to live, people once set tires on fire when their team lost, it was crazy.
