JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Alexander Marwata said President Joko Widodo's son, Kaesang Pangarep should openly convey the personal plane he uses when traveling to the United States. The public is considered to be natural to want to know because he is the son of a public official who is always being monitored by his movements.
"People want to know in their capacity as the person concerned to receive facilities and so on. Whether to pay for yourself or to be free, right," Alexander told reporters at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, quoted Wednesday, August 28.
"If you pay yourself, it's finished, there's no problem. 'I'll pay myself sir', that's it, that's what needs to be explained also by the person concerned," he continued.
Alexander even said that this method made Kaesang no longer need to clarify his subordinates. He said, the Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) could still be asked about the polemic private plane even though it was not a state official.
Moreover, if later it is found that there are allegations of giving luxury facilities from other parties related to the positions of parents and their families. In my opinion, in fact, there is no need to clarify the KPK if the person concerned then declares, 'I pay. This is receipt, proof of payment'. At that time it was a given facility, in the capacity as the person concerned received the facility. Yes, the point is that so that people don't keep asking questions," explained Alexander.
Previously, Kaesang Pangarep, who is the youngest child of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and his wife, Erina Gudono, was in the spotlight for taking a private jet to the United States. In addition, Jokowi's son-in-law also uploaded a luxurious lifestyle when it was released.

Erina at that time did not only upload the moment of boarding a plane to the United States. He also uploaded a photo of eating bread for Rp. 400 thousand and shopping for a baby streller allegedly for tens of millions of rupiah. Both of them were then highlighted after allegedly carrying luxury groceries from the United States without Customs inspection upon arrival in Indonesia. In the video circulating, both of them got off the Gulfstream jet N568SE directly to the Toyota Alphard car parked on the plane apron.
