The Fate Of Payment Of Indofarma Employee Salaries Is Waiting For The Legal Process Of Alleged Corruption
Deputy Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Kartika Wirjoatmodjo said the certainty of payment of salaries for employees of PT Indofarma Tbk (INAF) is awaiting legal proceedings for alleged corruption or fraud.
"We are still PKPU until we take care of the crime related to the fraud. After this, we will recount how much it needs for employees," he said when met at Balai Kartini, Jakarta, Wednesday, May 22.
The man who is familiarly called Tiko admitted that he did not know the total salary that Indofarma had not paid to his employees.
"I don't memorize it, but we are in the PKPU process," said Tiko.
As is known, based on an internal audit conducted by the Ministry of SOEs and the management of BUMN Pharmacy, it was found that there was a potential fraud of IDR 470 billion. Meanwhile, the investigative audit of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) recorded state losses on allegations of corruption in Indofarma reaching IDR 371 billion.
The results of the BPK investigative audit have been submitted to the Attorney General's Office for legal processing. This means that the Ministry of SOEs is waiting for the process to run.
