Public Relations Document of DKI Provincial Government

JAKARTA - The Jakarta Representative Office of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) has highlighted the follow-up to recommendations from the audit of the Jakarta Provincial Government's financial report for the first semester of 2025.

The Head of the Jakarta BPK Representative Office, Ali Asyhar, explained that the Jakarta Provincial Government has indeed implemented follow-up actions in accordance with the recommendations, with a significant number reaching 86.24 percent, or 10,300 recommendations.

"According to the monitoring results of the BPK's audit follow-up, a total of 11,943 recommendations were issued up to the first semester of 2025, with a breakdown and follow-up status. 10,300 recommendations, or 86.24 percent, have been followed up," said Ali Asyhar at Jakarta City Hall on Tuesday, December 16.

However, this figure does not cover the remaining work. Of the 11,943 recommendations issued by the BPK, 1,331 are still in progress or have not yet been implemented.

"Based on this data, there are several matters that require the attention of all leaders in the Jakarta Provincial Government, namely the 1,331 recommendations that are still in process or not yet in accordance. We hope the Inspectorate and Work Units will expedite their resolution," said Ali Asyhar.

He suggested that administrative recommendations be identified and resolved promptly, including completing the necessary supporting documents. The Audit Board (BPK) also opened a discussion forum for Regional Work Units (SKPD) experiencing difficulties in completing these recommendations.

"If necessary, please feel free to discuss with us at the office. We'll discuss the pending recommendations and the required documentation," he said.

In addition to the recommendations still in process, the BPK also noted that 20 recommendations, or 0.17 percent, have not been followed up at all, and 292 recommendations, or 2.45 percent, were deemed inappropriate for follow-up.

For those recommendations that have not been followed up at all, the BPK hopes that at least some progress will be made in their status during this monitoring activity.

"Regarding the 20 recommendations that have not been followed up at all, we hope that during this monitoring activity, all of these recommendations can be followed up on, or at least have moved to the follow-up stage," said Ali Asyhar.

The Audit Board (BPK) also emphasized serious attention to recommendations related to the return or deposit of funds into regional treasuries. The findings in these unfinished recommendations are said to be quite substantial.

"Especially recommendations related to the return or deposit of funds into regional treasuries and recommendations that have not been followed up. Their nominal value is quite substantial, namely IDR 4.87 trillion and USD 348.74 thousand. This is quite substantial," he said.

Ali Asyhar reminded that the obligation to follow up on BPK recommendations is stipulated in Law Number 15 of 2004 concerning the Audit of State Financial Management and Accountability.

"Officials are required to follow up on audit reports by providing a response or explanation to the BPK regarding follow-up actions no later than 60 days after receiving the audit report," Ali Asyhar said.
