Kasino (comedian)

Kasino's health began to show a decline in November 1996. While attending an event in Bandung, Kasino fell unconscious and he was then rushed to Bandung Adventist Hospital. The results of the X-ray examination by doctor showed evidence of tumor symptoms in the brain and Kasino was advised to undergo chemotherapy. Kasino's daughter, Hanna, said that her father's tumor probably stemmed from a mountain biking accident that occurred a few years earlier. As a consequence of the chemotherapy process, Kasino was forced to be absent from the Warkop DKI TV series and the script only focused on Dono and Indro. In 1997, Kasino health had ups and downs but did not discourage him. He also briefly appeared again in the Warkop DKI series by wearing a wig to cover the baldness on his head due to the chemotherapy process. In November 1997, Kasino's health deteriorated again and he was admitted to Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. After almost a month of treatment, Kasino passed away on 18 Desember 1997 after a year of suffering from a brain tumor. He was 47 years old at the time. His body was buried in Tajur Halang, Bogor Regency.

The presence of Kasino with the Warkop group provides a breath of fresh air for the Indonesian comedy entertainment business. The Warkop group represents a generation of educated comedians, who have a new characteristic in comedy. Career in the film they pioneered in the late 1970s skyrocketed. In the film Maju Kena Mundur Kena, the Warkop trio are among the highest-paid actors in Indonesia.
