Indonesia has launched a comprehensive initiative to curb online gambling by blocking internet lines connected to the Philippines and Cambodia. The Ministry of Communications and Informatics, along with financial institutions and a newly formed gambling task force, spearheads this effort, aiming to disrupt the infrastructure supporting illegal gaming and enforce strict anti-gambling laws.

by blocking internet lines connected to the Philippines and Cambodia.

What on earth is this talking about ? How exactly do you determine an internet line is connected to the site in the Philippines and Cambodia?

That is NOT how the internet works - they are not direct lines.

Maybe they'll go and cut international undersea optic fiber cables to prevent gambling

Realistically probably just a mistranslation. I bet they'll go with digital IP blocks.
