JAKARTA - The Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) has unlocked tens of millions of blocked accounts. Previously, the PPATK's policy of blocking dormant accounts, or accounts without transactions for three months, caused public uproar.
Many citizens protested the PPATK's account blocking policy, especially those with long-term savings accounts or those with infrequent transactions.
According to the PPATK, this policy was implemented to prevent the misuse of dormant accounts, such as money laundering, payments for online gambling transactions, human trafficking, fraud, and other crimes.
A total of 31 million accounts were blocked, with a total value of IDR 6 trillion. The question is, was the PPATK's policy of blocking dormant accounts appropriate? What should the PPATK do to reduce the number of banking and financial crimes? Read more information on VOI.id.
