JAKARTA - Special Staff III of the Minister of SOEs Arya Sinulingga opened his voice about several state-owned companies being dragged into the bribery case of a German software company, SAP.

Arya said his party was still waiting for official documents stating the involvement of state-owned companies in the case.

Later, after being proven involved, he said, the Ministry of SOEs will submit the case to the Attorney General's Office for legal action in Indonesia.

"Yes, we'll just give it to the AGO," said Arya when met at Gambir Station, Monday, January 22.

Arya said that currently the case is still being investigated in America so that his party has not received an official and comprehensive report regarding the case.

"It's from America, right. We're waiting for the results they will definitely come to us too. We're waiting for them, whatever they get and whoever they know. They say pay for playing golf, that's a lot," continued Arya.

Previously, Arya said that after reading the available information, it was stated that the alleged bribery occurred at Pertamina in 2017, Angkasa Pura I 2012, and Angkasa Pura II 2015.

"But we haven't got the details yet. Hopefully later with the detailed data, our BUMN friends believe we can work with anyone for this," Arya told reporters in Jakarta, Thursday, January 18.

Even so, Arya said that in principle the Ministry of SOEs supports matters related to cleaning up SOEs. This is also in accordance with the program run by SOE Minister Erick Thohir.

"So we support things that are part of cleaning up SOEs as well. That's the program, Mr. Erick always goes that way," he said.

For your information, SAP is a European Union software company based in Germany. This company markets its software around the world, including Indonesia through Indonesian SAP.

In his case, the United States Department of Justice released a US SEC report on the practice of bribery of SAP in South Africa and Indonesia. Where in the report it was stated that there were two bribes, namely the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP), as well as the Ministry of Communication and Information (Kominfo) through BP3TI which is now called BAKTI.
