JAKARTA - Novel Baswedan and 43 former employees of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will be sworn in as state civil servants (ASN) on Thursday, December 9. This inauguration is considered full of messages considering that its implementation coincides with the commemoration of World Anti-Corruption Day (Hakordia).
Former KPK spokesman Febri Diansyah said there was a strong message that the Police were trying to convey by choosing December 9 as the inauguration day for Novel Baswedan and partners as ASN.
Moreover, currently, the Bhayangkara Corps' level of trust has overtaken the KPK based on the results of a poll issued by the Indonesian Political Indicators Survey Institute.
"I think there might be a strong message with the momentum of the inauguration on the anti-corruption day. Moreover, now the public's trust in the KPK has dropped drastically," Febri told VOI, Wednesday, December 8.
Furthermore, through his Twitter account @febridiansyah, the anti-corruption activist congratulated Novel Baswedan and Partner. He said the inauguration to become a National Police ASN would be a further test for them to fight corruption in the country.
"Congratulations on devoting, friends... At the same time, it will be a test for every effort to fight corruption. Inaugurated to coincide with International Anti-Corruption Day," wrote Febri.
As for the other 12 people who chose not to become National Police ASN, Febri hoped that they would continue to contribute to the fight against racial abuse.
"My respect is also for the other 12. With different considerations and choices. Hopefully, they can contribute to corruption management," he said.
