KPK Explores Land Status Of Siloam Hospital Sorong State Assets Allegedly For Sale

SORONG - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has begun to explore and trace the status of the land for the Siloam Sorong Hospital in West Papua, it is reported that state assets have been sold to private parties.

Head of the KPK Coordination and Supervision Task Force Region V Dian Patria said his party was looking for information on the status of the land of the Siloam Sorong Hospital building which was reported to be a state asset that had been released to other parties.

According to him, according to the information obtained, the land where the Siloam Hospital was built was previously an asset belonging to the Sorong Regency Government.

Over time, said Dian Patria, the land was simply released and no longer recorded in regional assets. Then the land was controlled by PT PBS which then collaborated with other parties to build Siloam Hospital and a mall.

"We have formed a team with the National Land Agency for both the City and Sorong Regency to trace the process of releasing the assets," said Dian, quoted by Antara, Thursday, November 18.

If the land is a state asset and the process of releasing it to a private party is legally flawed, then the asset will be withdrawn.

According to him, even though it was certified, but the process of releasing the assets was found to be legally flawed, the National Land Agency (BPN) could cancel the land certificate.

"This is what we are currently investigating and exploring both the process of handing over the assets and the criminal element," said Dian Patria.
