JAKARTA - Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Kaesang Pangarep admitted that he had explained about the use of private jet facilities when entering the United States with his wife, Erina Gudono, to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). Kaesang claimed to have taken a plane belonging to his friend.

"I conveyed information about my trip to the US who was riding or accompanying a friend of mine," Kaesang told reporters at the ACLC KPK building, Rasuna Said, South Jakarta, Tuesday, September 17.

Kaesang also said that he had asked the KPK for advice regarding allegations that he had received gratuities from other parties. So, he took the initiative to go to the KPK.

The youngest son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) said he did not get a call. "My arrival today to the KPK is because of personal initiative as a good citizen," he said.

"Not because of a written summons or invitation from the KPK even though I am not an official or state administrator," he continued.

Meanwhile, Kaesang was present at the ACLC KPK building at 10.30 WIB. He was seen wearing a white shirt and black trousers.

The son of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) was accompanied by a number of PSI officials. One of them is PSI Secretary General Raja Juli Antoni.

As previously reported, Kaesang Pangarep, who is the youngest child of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and his wife, Erina Gudono, is in the spotlight because of taking a private jet to the United States. Jokowi's son-in-law also uploaded a luxurious lifestyle such as eating Rp400 thousand bread to buying a babystroller for tens of millions while in the US.
