JAKARTA - Head of the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) Ivan Yustiavandana visited the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) office to discuss the details of suspicious transactions amounting to Rp300 trillion.
Ivan explained that based on Law no. 8 of 2010 concerning Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering, the Ministry of Finance is one of the investigators of the original crime. Based on the law, Ivan said that PPATK must report cases or suspicious transactions related to taxation and customs.
"In that framework, it needs to be understood that this is not about the abuse of power or corruption committed by Ministry of Finance employees, but this is more about the Ministry of Finance handling cases of origin which are our obligations when carrying out the results of the analysis we convey to the Ministry of Finance to be followed up," said Ivan at the Ministry of Finance Building, Tuesday, March 14.
Ivan continued, his party will also continue to coordinate and serve so that the tourism related to customs can be handled both with the Ministry of Finance and with Law Enforcement Officials (APH).
Ivan also reiterated that the IDR 300 trillion transaction did not come from corruption or money laundering of Ministry of Finance employees.
"We found ourselves related to employees but the value is not that big. The value is very minimal and it is handled by the Ministry of Finance very well and we will carry out coordination continuously even though then we see something we need to get updates from friends from the Ministry of Finance," explained Ivan.
Present on the same occasion, Inspector General of the Ministry of Finance, Awan Nurmawan, reiterated that the IDR 300 trillion transaction was not corruption or the Crime of Money Laundering.
"So it is clear, in principle the figure of Rp. 300 trillion is not the number of corruption or TPPU employees at the Ministry of Finance. Then we at the Ministry of Finance, are committed to cleaning and cleaning with Mr. Ivan, we are committed," concluded Awan.
