SURABAYA - The Office of Small and Medium Enterprises Cooperatives and Trade (Dinkopdag) of Surabaya, East Java, is investigating the state civil apparatus (ASN) related to the alleged licensing case at the agency.

"Yes, that's true. We ask for permission to investigate first," said Head of the Surabaya Dinkopdag Fauzie Mustaqiem Yos when confirmed by reporters quoted by Antara, Monday, June 6.

Yos confirmed that one of his staff was playing with licensing. However, he admitted that he could not provide further information because until now his party was still investigating the case.

The licensing case started when the Surabaya Care Community received information about a licensing game from one of the licensing victims who claimed to be disappointed with the ASN.

A representative from the Surabaya Care Community, Julianto, said that the victim took care of one of the ASN officers at the Dinkopdag who promised to fix the permit for his outlet. This victim believes because this person was also part of the team when providing guidance to a number of outlets.

"So, this victim is very disappointed because at first when she took care of the permit, she was very happy to be able to get the outlet's permit. However, it turned out that when I tried the barcode it didn't work, and it turns out that the SIUP that was given didn't belong to the outlet either. The licensing mafia has taken action. On the one hand, he has already spent money, of course he is very disappointed," said Julianto, a representative of the Surabaya Care Community.

Julianto suspects that the victim of this ASN is not only one outlet, but there are already several outlets that have become victims. Therefore, he hopes that the Surabaya Inspectorate and the police will immediately thoroughly investigate this licensing mafia case.

"This is very dangerous for the Surabaya City Government in the future. Moreover, the Surabaya City Government ASN has a lot of income, how come, you still have the heart to become a licensing mafia, has he forgotten his oath and promise as an ASN," he said.
