TechRadar Names OnePlus 15 the Best Android Phone of June 2026, Ahead of Galaxy S26 Ultra

TechRadar’s June 2026 smartphone rankings place the OnePlus 15 above the Galaxy S26 Ultra, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max remains the best overall device.

TechRadar released its updated list of the best smartphones of 2026 in June, with the iPhone 17 Pro Max retaining the top spot overall, while the OnePlus 15 emerged as the highest-ranked Android device, placing ahead of Samsung’s Galaxy S26 Ultra.

According to TechRadar, the iPhone 17 Pro Max stands out with its 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display with peak brightness of 3,000 nits, A19 Pro chip, 12GB of RAM, a new vapor chamber cooling system, triple 48MP cameras, 8x zoom capability, and battery life exceeding 30 hours.

TechRadar’s latest rankings highlight the growing competition in the flagship smartphone market. While the iPhone 17 Pro Max remains the best overall smartphone, the OnePlus 15 has secured the top spot among Android devices, surpassing the Galaxy S26 Ultra.

East Kutai Sends First 12 Tons of Fermented Cocoa as Economic Diversification Gains Momentum

East Kutai ships 12 tons of fermented cocoa to Bandung, marking a key step in economic diversification from coal and palm oil to cocoa-based agro-industry.

The East Kutai Regency Government in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, shipped its first 12 tons of fermented cocoa beans to PT Rasantara Cipta Pangan in Bandung on Wednesday (June 17) in Sangatta, marking a key step in its efforts to diversify the local economy beyond coal and crude palm oil (CPO).

The initial shipment is part of an ongoing partnership, with regular monthly deliveries expected to range between 25 and 30 tons of fermented cocoa beans. The product originates from Karangan District, one of East Kutai’s long-established cocoa-producing areas.

East Kutai Regent Ardiansyah Sulaiman described the achievement as a major breakthrough in reducing the region’s reliance on extractive industries. He said the entry of local cocoa into industrial markets in Java highlights the strong potential of agriculture as a new driver of community-based economic growth.

He added that the progress was made possible by local farmer groups and business actors who improved quality standards through consistent fermentation processes that meet industrial requirements.

“East Kutai has long been known as a coal and crude palm oil (CPO) producing region. Therefore, this success in economic diversification through fermented cocoa is certainly a major leap,” said Ardiansyah Sulaiman in Sangatta on Sunday.

He also emphasized that the local government will continue supporting cocoa development, from cultivation and post-harvest standardization to expanding market access.

Meanwhile, Head of the East Kutai Plantation Office, Arief Nur Wahyuni, expressed optimism about the growing market opportunities for fermented cocoa. He said guaranteed off-take agreements would directly improve rural household incomes.

“With a stable market and modern cocoa processing from upstream to downstream, cocoa plantations have the potential to become a promising source of employment,” he said.

With established market access in Java and a structured monthly shipment plan, fermented cocoa from East Kutai is expected to emerge as a new economic growth engine, strengthening rural livelihoods and accelerating the region’s shift toward a more diversified economy.

AKPSI Backs One-Gate CPO Export Policy to Improve Palm Oil Governance

AKPSI Backs One-Gate CPO Export Policy to Improve Palm Oil Governance

AKPSI backs One-Gate CPO Export Policy in Penajam Paser Utara, expecting improved palm oil governance, price stability, and higher regional revenue sharing.

Penajam Paser Utara, East Kalimantan — The Indonesian Palm Oil Producing Regency Association (AKPSI) expressed optimism over the government’s one-gate export policy for natural resources, particularly crude palm oil (CPO), on Sunday (June 21, 2026) in Penajam Paser Utara.

AKPSI Chairman Mudyat Noor said the policy could improve the national palm oil trading governance system, which has long faced structural issues, especially in pricing.

He pointed to problems such as underpricing practices and transfer pricing between entities, which have affected both state and regional revenues.

According to him, if the one-gate export system is implemented effectively, domestic palm oil prices could become more stable and uniform. This would benefit farmers while reducing practices that distort market pricing and reduce public revenue.

Mudyat added that increased national revenue from the palm oil sector could also boost regional income through palm oil revenue-sharing funds.

“The one-gate export system could be an opportunity to improve the governance of the national palm oil trade,” said Mudyat Noor.

He emphasized that pricing reform is the most critical issue that needs to be addressed.
“With increased state revenue, it is expected to have an impact on increasing palm oil revenue-sharing funds (DBH) for producing regions,” he said.

AKPSI currently represents 164 regencies and municipalities across Indonesia and is also pushing to increase palm oil revenue sharing from 8% to at least 15% for producing regions.

AKPSI believes the implementation of the one-gate export policy through PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia could open wider opportunities to increase both national and regional revenues. If executed effectively, the policy is expected to strengthen palm oil price stability and improve the distribution of benefits to producing regions.

BNN Batang Introduces Anti-Drug Education Through Interactive Learning Program for Students

BNN Batang conducts interactive anti-drug education for students through MEGA program, introducing prevention efforts and drug awareness in Central Java.

Batang, Central Java — The National Narcotics Agency (BNN) of Batang Regency held an interactive “space exploration” education program for students on Sunday in Batang, introducing its duties, facilities, and learning tools related to drug prevention and enforcement efforts.

The program was designed as an immersive learning experience, allowing students to observe dioramas, drug replicas, and various operational tools used in drug prevention and enforcement.

Head of the Rehabilitation Team at BNN Batang, Ardhi Yusuf Rahmawan, said the agency is opening wide opportunities for students and university learners who want to study BNN’s methods in combating drug abuse.

He explained that participants not only observed educational displays but also received explanations about the roles of each BNN unit involved in tackling narcotics cases.

The initiative is part of the “Motivation for Drug-Free Generation Education” (MEGA) program, which aims to provide direct exposure to drug prevention strategies and the dangers of narcotics.

“The students responded very positively because this was a new experience for them,” Ardhi said.

Previously, similar visits were conducted by several educational institutions, including SMP Negeri 6 Batang and MAN Batang.

Ardhi Yusuf Rahmawan emphasized that hands-on education is crucial to improving students’ understanding of BNN’s role and raising awareness about drug dangers.

He also stressed the importance of early prevention, noting that students remain one of the most vulnerable groups targeted by drug abuse, including misuse of substances such as tramadol and hexymer.

According to available data, BNN Batang, together with the Central Java Provincial BNN, uncovered five narcotics cases involving 11 suspects throughout 2025.

BNN Batang hopes this direct educational approach will strengthen students’ understanding and encourage them to spread anti-drug awareness within their schools and communities.

Bezzecchi Banned from Czech GP After Sprint Race Controversy in MotoGP

Bezzecchi Banned from Czech GP After Sprint Race Controversy in MotoGP

Marco Bezzecchi apologizes after marshal incident at Czech MotoGP in Brno and receives suspension, impacting the championship battle.

JAKARTA - MotoGP championship leader Marco Bezzecchi has issued an apology after making contact with a track marshal following a crash during the Czech MotoGP sprint race in Brno on Saturday (June 21, 2026), a case that led to his suspension from Sunday’s main race.

The incident occurred in the closing stages of the sprint race at the Brno Circuit, when Bezzecchi crashed while running inside the top five. The fall cost him valuable points in the championship battle.

Hours after the race, footage surfaced showing Bezzecchi making contact with a marshal during the recovery of his crashed bike. The situation escalated when the motorcycle reportedly revved as it was being lifted, triggering a spontaneous reaction from the Italian rider.

Aprilia Racing initially appealed the sanction imposed by FIM MotoGP stewards but the appeal was rejected. The team later accepted the ruling and chose not to pursue the matter further.

In an official statement posted on social media, Bezzecchi expressed regret over his actions.

“I would like to apologise to the entire MotoGP community for my behaviour toward the trackside marshal,” he said.

“I’m also sorry because I know how much effort and sacrifice marshals make to ensure our safety.”

“This behaviour shouldn’t happen and there is no justification for it. I apologise to everyone, Aprilia Racing and all of my fans.”

On Sunday morning, Bezzecchi also visited the marshal post where the incident occurred to personally apologize.

The suspension means Bezzecchi will miss the main race at the Czech Grand Prix, potentially affecting his lead in the championship standings. He currently holds a 15-point advantage over teammate Jorge Martin.

Martin, meanwhile, still faces long lap penalties from a previous incident but now has an opportunity to reduce the gap. Marc Marquez could also close the points deficit further with another strong podium finish.

The situation adds further pressure on Aprilia Racing amid a series of recent internal and on-track incidents affecting the team’s momentum.

Twin Proboscis Monkeys Born in Rare Event at Pulau Curiak Conservation Site, Indonesia

Twin Proboscis Monkeys Born in Rare Event at Pulau Curiak Conservation Site, Indonesia

Twin proboscis monkeys born in Pulau Curiak, Barito Kuala, highlight conservation success led by SBI and Dr. Amalia Rezeki in South Kalimantan.

BANJARMASIN - Two proboscis monkey (bekantan) twins were born in mid-June 2026 at the Camp Tim Roberts research station on Pulau Curiak, Barito Kuala Regency, South Kalimantan, Indonesia, under the monitoring of conservationist Dr. Amalia Rezeki and the Sahabat Bekantan Indonesia (SBI) team.

The newborn twins appeared with typical infant features of proboscis monkeys—small bodies covered in thick black fur and dark blue facial skin. Their appearance will gradually change as they grow, with the fur turning yellow-brown and the distinctive elongated nose developing into adulthood.

The rare birth was first recorded during routine monitoring at the Camp Tim Roberts station, which is managed by Dr. Amalia Rezeki, a biologist from Universitas Lambung Mangkurat (ULM), together with the Sahabat Bekantan Indonesia conservation group.

Amalia, who has spent more than a decade working on proboscis monkey conservation in the area, said twin births among primates are extremely rare. She described the moment as deeply emotional when she saw the twins nursing with their mother.

“We are very grateful and moved. After more than ten years of conservation work here, this is the first time we have seen proboscis monkey twins born in the wild,” she said.

According to her, three proboscis monkey infants have been born in the area this year alone, highlighting a growing population trend in the non-protected habitat zone.

Primatologists note that proboscis monkeys typically give birth to only one infant per pregnancy after a gestation period of five to six months. Infant care is also shared within the group, especially by younger females acting as “helpers.”

The rare event has drawn attention from international researchers. Associate Professor Charles Lee from Singapore said the birth reflects successful conservation efforts, adding that he was moved to tears after hearing the news.

Professor Tim Roberts from the University of Newcastle also praised the long-term conservation work led by Amalia and SBI, calling Pulau Curiak an important refuge within the Barito River ecosystem.

Meanwhile, Dr. Ikki Matsuda from Kyoto University noted that twin births in proboscis monkeys are “extraordinary and worth sharing globally,” as single births are the norm for the species.

From Indonesia, Prof. Hadi Alikodra of IPB University stated that the event indicates a healthy habitat and sufficient food availability in the ecosystem, while stressing the need for continued monitoring of the newborn twins.

Amalia Rezeki said the moment was emotional and historic for her conservation team, while international researchers such as Charles Lee, Tim Roberts, and Ikki Matsuda described the birth as a rare and significant milestone for wildlife conservation.

Pulau Curiak currently hosts 61 proboscis monkeys, a sharp increase from 14 individuals in 2016 when conservation efforts began. More than 50,000 rambai mangrove seedlings have also been planted, expanding the habitat and improving ecosystem stability.

The area is now also contributing to local livelihoods, with fishermen benefiting from increased aquatic resources around the mangrove ecosystem. Authorities in South Kalimantan support developing the site as an eco-tourism destination within the Meratus UNESCO Global Geopark framework.

Viral CCTV Footage Sparks Alleged Affair Claims, Husband Says He Gathered Evidence for Two Years

Viral CCTV footage linked to an alleged affair has sparked widespread discussion after a husband claimed he spent two years collecting evidence before going public.

JAKARTA — CCTV footage allegedly showing a woman involved in an affair has gone viral on social media after being shared by Instagram account 24jam.CCTV. In the post, a man claiming to be the woman's husband said he had known about the alleged relationship for around two years.

The husband's account quickly drew public attention, as he said he chose to keep the matter private for years before eventually bringing it into the public spotlight. According to him, the decision was made out of consideration for his family and his children's future.

Husband Says He Spent Two Years Collecting Evidence

According to the social media post, the man claimed he had long been aware of an alleged relationship between his wife and another man but decided not to expose the issue immediately.

During the past two years, he said he worked to gather evidence to support his suspicions. He also claimed to have consulted with relevant parties and followed certain procedures before deciding to speak publicly about the matter.

He explained that remaining silent did not mean accepting the situation. Instead, he believed it was necessary to secure sufficient evidence before pursuing legal action.

CCTV Footage Draws Widespread Attention

The video circulating online reportedly shows a woman captured by surveillance cameras entering and leaving the same hotel room as a man.

The footage quickly spread across multiple social media platforms, sparking widespread discussion among internet users. Many focused on the husband's claim that he had kept the issue private for two years.

However, there has been no response or clarification from the individuals mentioned in the social media post regarding the allegations.

Social Media Users React

"Thank you to the hotel management for sharing the CCTV footage," one user identified as niaxxxxxx wrote.

"Justice in the afterlife is fair, but those who act dishonestly in this world will also face justice," another user, hoexxxxxxx, commented.

"Divorce her, no matter what the considerations are. Seriously, just get divorced," wrote user yog***********.

Viral “White Towel Child vs Mother” Video Sparks Warnings Over Fake Links

Viral “White Towel Child vs Mother” Video Sparks Warnings Over Fake Links

The viral “White Towel Child vs Mother” video has triggered widespread searches on TikTok, prompting warnings over fake links that could expose users to phishing and malware.

The “White Towel Child vs Mother” video became a trending topic on TikTok again on Saturday, June 20, 2026, prompting a surge in searches for the full clip across digital platforms. As interest grew, experts and observers warned users about potential cybersecurity threats linked to suspicious URLs circulating online.

The spike in searches has led to the spread of numerous unverified links. Cybersecurity risks, including phishing attempts, could exploit the curiosity surrounding the viral content.

According to Jawapos, clips widely shared online show a young child who has just finished bathing and is wrapped in a white towel. In the video, the mother helps dry the child as part of a routine caregiving activity.

Objectively, the footage does not contain any extraordinary events. The video simply captures a common family moment and everyday parenting activities.

Despite its ordinary nature, the short clip gained traction on social media, where reposts and comments lacking full context sparked various interpretations among users.

As the trend spread, some internet users began linking the video to claims of good luck or fortune for children. Those narratives quickly circulated through online discussions and derivative content.

However, there is currently no scientific evidence, academic study, or research supporting such claims. The association between the video and good luck appears to stem from unverified interpretations shared online.

As reported by Jawapos, the phenomenon highlights how simple content can evolve into multiple perceptions when distributed without complete context.

The surge in interest has also been exploited by irresponsible parties distributing malicious links. Cybersecurity experts warn that URLs shared in comment sections, private messages, and anonymous accounts could redirect users to phishing websites.

Potential threats include stolen social media accounts through fake login pages, misuse of personal information such as email addresses and phone numbers, financial data theft, and malware infections on devices.

These tactics often rely on users’ curiosity about viral content to lure victims to unsafe websites.

Authorities and digital literacy advocates are encouraging people to exercise caution when accessing information from unknown sources. Users are advised to verify links before clicking and avoid sharing unconfirmed information.

Greater digital awareness is expected to help internet users respond more carefully to viral content and reduce exposure to cyber threats.

Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan — The Education Office (Disdik) of Central Kalimantan Province conducted an evaluation of a school in Palangka Raya on Saturday (June 2026) after a video showing students allegedly engaging in inappropriate behavior inside a classroom spread widely and drew public attention.

Head of the Central Kalimantan Education Office, Reza Prabowo, said the agency immediately coordinated with the school principal and summoned the parents of the two students involved. The step was taken to resolve the issue comprehensively and provide proper guidance.

The students have also received disciplinary action and are required to undergo regular counseling sessions with the school’s guidance and counseling (BK) teachers.

Viral Video Happened During Break Time

The video reportedly began circulating in early June 2026. The incident occurred during school break time, not during teaching and learning activities.

However, the Education Office stressed that it still considered the matter serious because it took place within the school environment, highlighting the need for stronger supervision and character building.

“This is certainly a concern for all of us. Any inappropriate behavior in schools will be evaluated,” said Reza Prabowo in Palangka Raya.

He emphasized that the Central Kalimantan Provincial Government, in line with Governor Agustiar Sabran’s direction, is prioritizing student character development. Students are expected not only to excel academically but also to demonstrate strong ethics, morals, and manners.

Reza also issued an apology to the public and confirmed that a comprehensive evaluation of the school supervision system will be carried out.

As a preventive measure, the Education Office is considering strengthening school monitoring systems, including proposing the installation of CCTV cameras in classrooms and school environments.

“We will propose that every school be monitored through CCTV to create a safer and more orderly environment and reduce the chance of similar incidents,” he explained.

In addition, the Education Office continues to strengthen character education programs to ensure a more conducive learning environment.

The local government stated that this case will serve as an important evaluation point to improve the education system in Central Kalimantan, especially in terms of supervision and student behavior guidance.

“We ask for prayers and support from all parties so that education in Central Kalimantan continues to improve and our students develop good manners and ethics as expected by society,” Reza concluded.
