The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) was asked to resolve the durian cardboard scandal which allegedly involved the Chairman of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin. Investigations must be carried out so that the alleged bribery case at the Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration (Kemenakertrans) does not drag on. "Asking the KPK KPK to continue the process of searching for information on the durian cardboard case," said Jakarta Anti-Corruption Student Alliance Coordinator Anzam in Jakarta, Tuesday, August 8. Anzam said the investigation of the scandal was a form of presenting legal certainty. Do not let the case be unclear in the end. The investigation, continued Anzam, could be done by summoning Cak Imin. Moreover, many people provide support. "Supporting the KPK to thoroughly investigate the durian cardboard case, as well as the bribery and gratification case of the Central Lampung Regent which allegedly involved the name Muhaimin Iskandar," he said. This durian cardboard scandal was revealed in the trial of the bribery case at the Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration (Kemenakertrans) which has now changed its name. At that time, Cak Imin became the Minister of Manpower and Transmigration. At the trial, Director General of the Directorate General of Transmigration Area Development (P2Ktrans) Jamaluddien Malik said Muhaimin received Rp400 million. The money from the budget cut at the directorate in 2013 was stored in a durian cardboard box. Not only that, the name Cak Imin has also been mentioned in the bribery case of the Ministry of PUPR infrastructure project in Maluku and North Maluku for the 2016 fiscal year. In this case, Musa Zainudin, who had sat in a prisoner's chair, said that he had given Rp. 6 billion from the Rp. 7 billion he received as project fee to Cak Imin. However, the money was given not directly but through Jazilul Fawaid, who at that time was Secretary of the PKB Faction.
