The Ombudsman Is Waiting For A Letter And Is Ready To Study The KPK's Objections To The Results Of The TWK Final Report

JAKARTA - The Indonesian Ombudsman will soon study the points of objection from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) regarding the report on the final results of the examination related to the National Insight Test Assessment (TWK).

However, they are still waiting for the letter to be sent by the KPK today, Friday, August 6.

"We are waiting for the letter from the KPK and its attachments. We will study it," said RI Ombudsman member Robert Na Endi Jaweng when contacted by reporters, Thursday night, August 5.

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) expressed objections and would not carry out the corrective steps submitted by the Indonesian Ombudsman after the TWK implementation process was declared maladministrative and there were irregularities.

In its objection, the KPK considers the Ombudsman unfair in providing its recommendations. The anti-corruption commission also considers that the Ombudsman does not respect their authority in carrying out the test as a condition for transferring their employee status to State Civil Apparatus (ASN).

Not only that, the KPK also accused the Indonesian Ombdusman of crossing the line because he stated that the TWK did not comply with the applicable regulations. The Ombudsman is considered to feel more powerful than the rule of law and legislation in Indonesia.

There are also four corrective steps that must be carried out, namely asking the KPK leadership to continue to transfer the status of Novel Baswedan and 74 other employees who were declared not to have passed the TWK to become State Civil Apparatus (ASN).

Next, the Ombudsman asked the KPK not to use TWK as the basis for the dismissal of 75 employees. Then, the anti-corruption commission was asked to carry out official education regarding national insight for employees who were terminated because they did not pass the TWK.

Finally, the KPK was asked to explain to its employees about the consequences of implementing TWK in the form of information or legal documents.
