JAKARTA - In the trial of the alleged tin corruption case held by the Central Jakarta District Court (PN Jakpus), Harvey Moeis said the people who had trusted him to channel CSR funds to the public.

Harvey said that Suwito Gunawan, Tamron, Robert Indarto and Rosalina had participated in helping many Bangka Belitung people through his CSR company who collaborated with PT Timah.

"Thank you profusely for your participation and trust in me. The funds entrusted to me helped so many people, especially during Covid-19, I don't think it was just helping but saving the lives of many people. First," Harvey said in a hearing quoted on Tuesday, October 1.

During the trial, Harvey considered Tamron as a generous community figure in Bangka Belitung through the assistance provided to the community.

"Mr. Aon (Tamron) is a community leader. Famous for being very generous in his area, I don't want to argue that this father helps a lot through his own father or through me," said Harvey.

According to Harvey, when the world's tin metal price was falling, Tamron had lost money to be able to distribute CSR funds to people in his area.

"The price of the smelter rental continues to fall to US$2500 per ton. You only have US$2500 if you reduce US$500 again, it goes bankrupt, sir (Tamron). I also can't bear this either", he said.

Tamron in the trial also denied that the funds given to Harvey were a fee for having collaborated with a smelter with PT Timah.

"No (not a fee), as far as I know Mr. Harvey applied for CSR funds, so I gave him," Tamron replied.

Tamron admitted that he always gave CSR directly to the people in his area for living welfare and public facilities.

"We always do CSR in the regions. Help donations to regions, communities, development, and others," explained Tamron.
