"I again apologize profusely, as much as possible, still rejecting IKN (the national capital has moved). Not at the right time, that much money should be for the welfare of the people, for the development of the domestic economy," said Edy at the National Police Baresrim.

In addition to the large amount of budget spent on relocating the nation's capital city from DKI Jakarta to East Kalimantan, said Edy, there was a warning from the world bank against Bank Indonesia.

"Just remember, what we just read yesterday, the World Bank warned that Indonesian banks are no longer allowed to buy debt securities, which means that IKN financing will come back in trouble and the potential for stalling is enormous," said Edy.

On the other hand, continued Edy, the construction of the State Capital will exacerbate the destruction of nature in Kalimantan which he currently says has been damaged due to mining activities.

"For decades Kalimantan has been exploited to the full, how many billion tons of coal have been transported, how many hectares of forests have been cut, transported, how many thousand or million hectares of customary lands have been confiscated," he said. three police reports against Edy Mulyadi regarding his statement about the State Capital (IKN) "a place for genies to dispose of children". The report came from community elements in the East Kalimantan Police, West Kalimantan Police and North Sumatra Police. In addition, it received 16 complaints and 18 statements of attitude.

The three reports were withdrawn to the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police, until January 26, investigators raised the status of the case from investigation to investigation.

The investigators then issued a summons for an examination as a witness against Edy Mulyadi which was scheduled for Friday, January 28, however, Edy, represented by his legal counsel, sent a letter to reschedule the examination. The reason is that the summons to his client is not in accordance with the Criminal Code. Regarding the day he was summoned as a witness reported.

The report against Edy Mulyadi is related to his statement which stated that East Kalimantan, which became the State Capital (IKN) was a place for genies to throw children away.

One of Edy Mulyadi's quotes that allegedly insulted East Kalimantan at his press conference reads "This is an elite place, owns a very expensive price, has its own building, then sold it, moved to a place where the genie disposed of children (new IKN)".
