JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) ensures that their work will not be disrupted even though Lili Pintauli Siregar resigns from the position of vice chairman. The filling of the position was handed over to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and the Indonesian House of Representatives in accordance with Article 33 of the KPK Law Number 19 of 2019.

Lili resigned from her position as Deputy Chairperson of the KPK after she allegedly received accommodation and tickets for the Mandalika MotoGP from PT Pertamina (Persero).

"Regarding the replacement of Ms. LPS, of course, we leave it entirely to the President and the DPR. As stipulated in Article 33 of the KPK Law," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Affairs Ali Fikri told reporters quoted on Friday, July 15.

The performance of the KPK, continued Ali, was also not disturbed even though Lili resigned from her position. The reason is that the leadership in the institution is collegial in nature.

Collective collegial is a leadership system that involves interested parties in issuing decisions or policies through a deliberation mechanism to reach an agreement.

"Because the leadership at the KPK is collegial, so far the activities and work programs of the KPK are still running normally," he said.

Previously, Lili Pintauli resigned on June 30. Jokowi responded to this resignation letter by issuing a presidential decree on Monday, July 11.

After Lili officially resigned, President Jokowi said the process of filling the position left by Lili was still ongoing.

"The replacement for Mrs. Lili Pintauli is still in process," said Jokowi on the Presidential Secretariat's YouTube show, Tuesday, July 12.

He asked all parties to be patient while waiting for Lili's replacement. Meanwhile, the signing of the dismissal decision was only made on Monday, July 11 yesterday.

"I just signed the letter of dismissal last week and it is still in the process of being replaced," said the former governor of DKI Jakarta.

"We will immediately propose (his replacement, ed) to the DPR. As soon as possible," continued Jokowi.

Meanwhile, when asked why Lili resigned from her position, Jokowi did not respond. He kept silent about the contents of the resignation letter.

Lili Pintauli was reported to the KPK Supervisory Board for allegedly receiving accommodation and tickets for the Mandalika MotoGP from PT Pertamina (Persero). In carrying out the investigation, Tumpak and partners have asked for information from various parties including the President Director of PT Pertamina, Nicke Widyawati.

However, this trial was declared void because the former Deputy Chairperson of the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) resigned from his position. The KPK Council reasoned that Lili was no longer a member of the KPK.
