"We have agreed to form a Joint Command Post at the Center, using an application system, and this will be followed up by the Secretary-General of the Kemendes PDTT and related work units," he said.
Meanwhile, the Attorney General said that his party would follow up the cooperation with the Kemendes PDTT regarding the Joint Command Post.
He also conveyed the need to form an Integrated Team or Joint Assistance Team from the Kemendes PDTT and the Attorney General's Office.
Through this collaboration, he hopes to work effectively in supervising the management of village funds so that in the future the use of village funds can be more efficient, effective, and accountable.
"The Prosecutor's Office has a Village Guard program which aims to provide assistance to Village Apparatus. The role of the Prosecutor is (important) to provide assistance in understanding financial accountability," he said.
