President Prabowo Subianto continues the process of selecting the names of candidates for leadership and Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) who have been handed over by the 7th President of the Republic of Indonesia Joko Widodo to the DPR.
"In principle, President Prabowo follows what was proposed by the previous president," said Minister of State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, November 6.
The Minister of State Secretary said that President Prabowo Subianto would not review the names of candidates for leadership and the KPK who had been submitted to the DPR RI.
"The process is already underway, in accordance with procedures, and our way of thinking does not want to waste energy. Of course, what was produced at that time was also the best person proposed," he said.
Administratively, he said, the process was already underway and there was an answer from the President so that the DPR could continue.
Previously, Deputy Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Nurul Ghufron said President Prabowo Subianto had the authority to continue or annull the names of 10 candidates for leadership and the KPK for the 2024 '2029 period.
"Pak Prabowo currently as President also has the authority to do so, then annulls it. 'This is already an relay to the new President. Therefore, President Prabowo has the authority to continue or not. That is the President's authority," said Ghufron.
Ghufron assessed that one of the reasons for the candidates for the KPK leadership and Council to be elected by the presidential committee in the same period was to maintain independence so that the KPK candidates and Councils did not have a relationship with the previous president.
