JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has asked Muhaimin Iskandar to cooperate in fulfilling the investigator's summons. He is rumored to be questioned as a witness related to the corruption case in the procurement of the Indonesian labor protection system (TKI) at the Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker) on Tuesday, September 5. "We hope that whoever is summoned by cooperative KPK investigators will attend according to the time determined by the team to attend the KPK's Red and White Building," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters at the Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Monday, September 4. The chairman of the National Awakening Party (PKB) is planned to be summoned as a witness. However, Ali did not want to elaborate on the summons. However, it is certain that the witnesses summoned by investigators have been properly sent a letter. Ali said that usual shipments were made three days before the scheduled summons. "Jadi untuk memanggil saksi itu minimal tiga hari sebelumnya sudah harus disampaikan dan semua saksi yang dianggil besok kami pastikan sudah diberikan surat panggilannya, sudah diberikan surat panggilannya,” tegasnya. The opportunity for Cak Imin's summons has been conveyed by Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur. He said anyone who knew about the case would be questioned without exception, including Cak Imin, who served as Minister of Manpower (Menaker) for the 2009-2014 period. "It is possible for all officials in the tempus (time) to ask for information," said Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur to reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Friday, September 1. "Why? Because we have to get the clearest possible information, don't let person A accuse person B, then C accuses person B and then we don't ask for information, that's strange," he continued. As previously reported, the KPK said that there were three suspects named in the corruption case at the Ministry of Manpower. Although the KPK has not yet submitted it, the Secretary of the Planning and Development Agency of the Ministry of Manpower I Nyoman Darmanta is reportedly involved.

The value of the information system procurement project that is suspected to be the result of the perpetrators reached around Rp. 20 billion. Deputy Chairman Alexander Marwata said that this system was allegedly corrupted until it could not be used to monitor migrant workers. “ Only computers can be used to type and so on. However, the system itself is not working, ” he told reporters in Jakarta, Thursday, August 24.
