This activity was also attended by the winning team of each candidate. Then, also present from the General Elections Commission (KPU) and the Election Supervisory Body (Bawaslu).

Previously reported, the KPK held an Anti-Corruption Strengthening program for State Administrators with Integrity or Paku for presidential candidates (candidates) and vice presidential candidates (cawapres). Meanwhile, the KPK chairman Nawawi Pomolango said this activity had received the blessing of the KPU.

"We have received a kind of blessing from the election organizers, namely the KPU to organize these activities because these three pairs, indeed there is a domain of KPU power. If the KPU says it is not allowed, yes it is not allowed, we cannot live it," said Nawawi in a KPK RI YouTube show quoted Wednesday, January 17.

Nawawi said the candidate pairs would not argue in PAKU Integrity. The KPK will start the event by conveying problems and obstacles in handling corruption cases.

"The format is not in the form of a debate earlier, about the name that my friend mentioned earlier that I once said that the question for the coach was just death," he said.

"So there is no such format, such as debate, we make sure it doesn't exist. Then, not also program complaints, no, we mean the forum, the institution wants to convey to candidates, any problems, what obstacles we find in efforts to eradicate corruption," continued Nawawi.
