"Don't be empty, sir. Starting today, I have started to think about who the object can be confiscated," said Firli in his speech.

"Who can be arrested, arrest. Seize all wealth, fill this building," he ordered.

Karyoto, continued Firli, could be stressed hearing his orders. However, he considers this request is a challenge that must be completed by his subordinates.

"The Deputy for Enforcement (Karyoto) is a bit stressed. He's a little stressed but maybe he's not like that. Hopefully this is. Pak Karyoto, this is a challenge," he said.

While on the third floor, a number of cars confiscated and stolen by corruptors were already there. One of them, the car comes from the case of former Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Edhy Prabowo.

Security in the building is also guaranteed. Because, each parking lot has a sensitive alarm because it will sound if someone crosses the trigger carelessly.

Not only seeing the stolen car park, Firli and his entourage while walking around also heard various information related to the facilities in the Rupbasan Building. Not only that, a car wash demo using robotic carwash was also held.

These various facilities are expected to be able to maintain the assets confiscated and confiscated by the KPK. Thus, asset recovery or efforts to recover state losses can be carried out optimally.

"These confiscated or looted goods will later be auctioned and all the proceeds will be returned to the state treasury. Therefore, the KPK must maintain the selling value of these goods and continue to optimize asset recovery for corruption crimes by maintaining the quality and value of the auction later," said Firli.
