Dharma-Kun Offer Blockchain Detection Of Provincial Government Governance Violations

JAKARTA - The candidate pair (paslon) for governor and deputy governor in the 2024 DKI Jakarta Pilkada number two (2), Dharma Pongrekun-Kun Wardana, offered the public the application of block chain technology (blockchain) to detect violations of governance.

"This technology can actually reduce many things, the first is corruption, irregularities, then illegal levies or also insiders who manipulate existing data. Because all of that can be seen quite well," said Kun Wardana as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, October 29.

Blockchain technology is an advanced database mechanism that allows transparent sharing of information in a network.

According to Kun, blockchain technology is a decentralized technology, namely that every time in the DKI Jakarta area, each participant (server) will be placed.

The decentralized system will minimize manipulation in governance, including data manipulation.

"This technology is decentralized. So, if we are currently, we are more centralized. So, the possibility of manipulation is high," said Kun.

All data-based government actions, said Kun, can be tracked effectively with this technology.

"Once decentralized, it is recorded in every area or place where the servers will be installed later, then if someone changes it, then they will be able to be tracked properly," he said.

With the application of blockchain technology, said Kun, there will be no more manipulation, except for additional data.

"Then also in this technology there is no deletion of data, no editing, no manipulation. Therefore, what there is only adds. So, if it only adds, we can see who adds, on what date," added Kun.

Kun guarantees governance can be tracked 100 percent with this technology.

"We hear now that there are a lot of public concerns. Especially about the Jakarta Smart Card (KJP) Plus, the Jakarta Elderly Card (KLJ), or other aid cards. For example, those who should have received Rp600 thousand turned out to only get Rp300 thousand. They have complained for a long time, even many don't get it anymore, "said Kun.

With blockchain technology, said Kun, all the manipulations can be detected until they are completed.

"So with this, all transactions recorded will be transparent and the advantages of him (blockchain technology) cannot be hacked," he said.
