JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said that anyone who has data related to the alleged corruption in the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed rail project can report.

KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo said community participation could facilitate the ongoing investigation process. Thus, the institution invites the public to provide information if it is deemed related.

"KPK is very open to anyone who has information, has data, has information related to this case, please be able to convey it," Budi told reporters quoted on Tuesday, October 28.

Budi said the data can be submitted through various platforms. For email, the public can submit it through a complaint @kpk.go.id.

"You can go through the whistle blowing system or through other complaint channels. Please, we are very open," he said.

Furthermore, Budi said the investigation had been carried out since the beginning of 2025. The process also continues and does not encounter significant obstacles.

"We are both waiting for the progress, and let's oversee it. We continue to convey to the public, anyone who has data, has information that can support the handling of this case, please be able to convey it to the KPK."

For information, MAYh serves the Jakarta-Bandung route with a length of 142.3 kilometers with a travel time of about 30'45 minutes and has been operating since October 2023 after being inaugurated by the 7th President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo (Jokowi). This project is a collaboration between the Indonesian government and China.

The project value at that time was only targeted at 5.13 billion US dollars or around Rp. 82.08 trillion. However, this figure swelled by 1.2 billion US dollars to 7.27 billion US dollars or equivalent to Rp. 115 trillion assuming the US dollar exchange rate was Rp. 16 thousand.

Previously reported, information on the investigation into the alleged corruption of the Jakarta 'Bandung high-speed rail project, closed-up was initially conveyed by the Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur.

"Currently it is at the investigation stage," said Asep when confirmed by VOI, Monday, October 27.

Asep did not explain in more detail when the investigation began. This is because this process is usually carried out behind closed doors.
