The five leaders, namely Firli Bahuri, Alexander Marwata, Nawawi Pomolango, Lili Pintauli Siregar, and Nurul Ghufron. They were reported to Dewas because they were suspected of violating the code of ethics and even acting arbitrarily in the process of changing the status of employees to ASN.

But in a number of things we observed there were very basic things and then we saw them as problems. which is serious, "said Novel, Tuesday, May 18.

Novel suspected that there was an attempt to get rid of a certain number of employees through TWK.

"Then it makes as if there is a process, people who should be employees who behave well, who excel, are actually made as if they did not pass or did not meet the requirements.

Previously, President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) emphasized that the failure to pass 75 employees in the assessment of the national insight test (TWK) did not automatically become a reason for dismissal of employees related to the transfer of ASN status. The test for the transfer of ASN status must not be detrimental to the rights of KPK employees.

"I agree with the consideration of the Constitutional Court in the decision to examine Law Number 19 of 2019 concerning the second amendment to the Law (KPK) which states that the process of transferring the status of KPK employees to ASN must not harm the right of KPK employees to be appointed as ASN," Jokowi said in a statement quoted via YouTube of the Presidential Secretariat, Monday, May 17.

Jokowi emphasized that the KPK must indeed have the best human resources and be highly committed in efforts to eradicate corruption. Therefore, transferring the status of KPK employees to ASN must be part of a more systematic effort to eradicate corruption.
