JAKARTA - Former Commitment Maker Officer (PPK) at the Directorate of High Schools (SMA) of the Ministry of Education and Culture, Dhany Hamiddan Khori, admitted that he received Rp701 million in connection with the alleged corruption case of Chromebooks.
He explained that the money consisting of 30 thousand US dollars or equivalent to Rp501 million (exchange rate of Rp16,700 per US dollar) and Rp200 million was received from Susy Mariana as a colleague from one of the companies that won the tender for the procurement of Chromebooks.
"I shared the money with Mr. Purwadi 7,000 US dollars, Mr. Suhartono 7,000 US dollars, and for office operations," said Dhany when he testified at the Corruption Court in Jakarta, reported by ANTARA, Monday, February 2.
In addition, he said the money was also used to buy a laptop for one of his staff who needed it.
However, Dhany said the money he received had now been returned to the state.
In the case of alleged corruption in the education digitization program in the form of the procurement of Chromebook laptops and Chrome Device Management in the Ministry of Education and Culture environment in 2019-2022, Nadiem is accused of corruption that has caused losses to the state treasury worth IDR 2.18 trillion.
Corruption, among others, was carried out by carrying out the procurement of learning facilities based on information and communication technology with laptops Chromebook and CDM for the 2020, 2021, and 2022 fiscal years not in accordance with the procurement planning and procurement principles.
The alleged act was carried out together with three other defendants who have been tried, namely Ibrahim Arief alias Ibam, Mulyatsyah, and Sri Wahyuningsih, as well as Jurist Tan, who is currently still at large.
In detail, the losses caused by the state include Rp1.56 trillion related to the education digitization program at the Ministry of Education and Culture, as well as 44.05 million US dollars or the equivalent of Rp621.39 billion due to the procurement of CDM that is not necessary and not useful in the education digitization program.
With this act, Nadiem is suspected of having received money amounting to IDR 809.59 billion originating from PT Aplikasi Karya Anak Bangsa (PT AKAB) through PT Gojek Indonesia.
It is stated that most of PT AKAB's money comes from Google's investment of US$786.99 million.
This can be seen from Nadiem's wealth which is recorded in the LHKPN in 2022, namely there is an acquisition of property in the form of securities worth IDR 5.59 trillion.
