Every Conclave, Jokowi Often Reminds His Ministers Not Corruption
JAKARTA - President Moeldoko's Chief of Staff says President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) often reminds his ministers, not to corrupt. Corruption is said to be tormenting the people.
The former TNI commander also mentioned this is not only once delivered by Jokowi. The warning, he continued, is often delivered by Jokowi every meeting with his ministers.
"I would like to remind the direction of the president that is often conveyed during limited cabinet meetings, namely to create a system that closes the corruption loophole. Do not corruption of any kind on the rights of the people", Moeldoko said at the launching of the Stranas corruption prevention action PK 2021-2022 on YouTube KPK RI, Tuesday, April 13.
Jokowi also always reminds his subordinates not to abuse their authority. Because abuse of authority is the beginning of corruption that harms society.
"Do not abuse authority, do not want to be bribed, and do not do pungli (extortion). Because basically and ultimately the victims are the people," he said.
As reported earlier, Moeldoko also asked officials not to try corruption while still in office. Because the corruption prevention system in the country is getting stronger.
"The corruption prevention system has been strengthened from upstream to downstream. So for anyone who is still reckless will definitely be brushed indiscriminately", he said in the same event.
Moeldoko mentioned that six actions become important points in Stranas PK (Eradication of Corruption). First, the acceleration of licensing and governance of import exports.
Next, strengthen the effectiveness and efficiency of procurement of goods and services. The third is the utilization of the residence number (NIK) for the accuracy of subsidies. Fourth, strengthening the letter of provision of funds (SPD) for the accuracy of subsidies.
"Fifth, strengthening internal government control. The last is the strengthening of the integrity of law enforcement officials along with six other actions, which have the potential to be a game-changer if implemented in earnest and results-oriented", he said.
The former TNI commander hopes that the action can be the focus and target of corruption prevention in Indonesia. Furthermore, this action is also expected to be a reference and guide for ministries, institutions, and local governments to prevent corruption in the future.
The six actions are believed to be effective in eradicating corruption in Indonesia. He believes corruption could be lost if the six acts are carried out properly.
