JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) highlighted the strategic project that stalled in the Purworejo Regency Government in 2023. One of them is a zoo or mini zoo with a value of Rp9 billion.

"From a physical point of view, the project (a zoo mini or mini zoo, ed) is not perfect, it is 100 percent complete. There are potential building failures there," said the Functional Task Force for Korsup Region III KPK, Azril Zah in a written statement quoted on Thursday, October 24.

The project, continued Azril, has suffered a number of damage due to landslides whose repairs cost up to Rp2 billion. The Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) has also highlighted the construction of the zoo.

However, the Purworejo Regency Government has not found a solution so that the construction of the Mini Zoo can provide more benefits for regional cash income. "We ask the relevant agencies, especially commitment-making officials (PPK) to investigate the audit (of the BPK)," he said.

Furthermore, another finding highlighted by the KPK was the Ganesha Hotel. This strategic project was built worth Rp. 23 billion but has not yet operated, so it is feared that it will be neglected.

Then, the construction of the Purworejo Labkesda with a budget of IDR 7.9 billion is also in the spotlight of the KPK. This is because there is a delay in completing the work according to schedule so that it has the potential to stall and there are irregularities or fraud.

"This must be followed up seriously by the local government, how they are committed and working on the advice we provide. On the other hand, we also continue to help encourage by monitoring the sustainability process," he concluded.
