JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will coordinate with the Inspectorate General and the Inspector of Investigation of the Ministry of Public Works (PU) in the near future.
KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo said this step was taken after his party received information on the alleged practice of gratification by officials at the ministry. The Directorate of Gratification and Public Services of the Deputy for Prevention and Monitoring will certainly move.
"KPK received information on the alleged practice of gratification at the Ministry of Public Works with the mode of requesting money by a state administrator or civil servant to employees in its ranks who will be used for personal gain," Budi told reporters in a written statement, Thursday, May 29.
Budi said that his party was watching the results of the investigation conducted by the Inspector General of the Ministry of Public Works. "We will conduct an analysis of these findings," he said.
As previously reported, the Inspectorate General of the Ministry of Public Works (Irjen PU) investigated allegations of gratification by officials from the Ministry of Public Works. As a result, Rp10 million and 5,900 US dollars were found in the context of his son's marriage.

Meanwhile, the Minister of Public Works (PU) Dody Hanggodo admitted that he had received a report on the alleged gratification. He knows that there is an audit of a head of the bureau who collects money for the wedding of the daughter of a PU official.
"I have received a report from Mr. Inspector General a while ago, but I have ordered Mr. Inspector General to follow up. We have not received further reports," said Dody.
Dody admitted that he submitted the full examination process to the Inspector General of the Ministry of Public Works Dadang Rukmana. He also did not want to speculate on the potential to continue the examination process to the criminal realm.
"If for example it is felt like the Inspector General will have a criminal element. He must have transferred it to the KPK, prosecutor's office, or the police," said Dody.
