JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is monitoring the condition of the Aceh-North Sumatra National Sports Week (PON) venue which was highlighted because it collapsed and the work was not completed. KPK Director of Investigation Asep Guntur Rahayu said there was information related to conditions in the field.

"We also received information from fellow journalists, through reports, yes, that there are several venues that are not ready, collapsed venues and others," Asep told reporters at the KPK's Red and White House, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, quoted on Thursday, September 19.

Asep said this information would not be kept away by his institution. The Directorate of Public Services and Reporting (PLPM) of the KPK is believed to have prepared it by looking for initial information.

"So, the KPK can carry out investigations if there are reports that come in. I am sure that our friends at the PLPM and this is also called moving to collect information," he said.

"And thankfully, the public or journalists in Aceh and North Sumatra, around the venue, also provide a report to us for us to follow up," continued Asep.

As previously reported, PON 2024 is haunted by a number of problems and is considered the worst in history. One of them is the incompleteness of several facilities and infrastructure.

As a result, a number of sports were forced to hold their matches in the midst of the busyness of the workers completing the unfinished facilities. In addition to the unfinished facilities, PON athletes must also accept the fact that they get stale food and boxed rice that is far from standard is suitable for consumption.
