JAKARTA - The government is open to adding funds for supervisory agencies and law enforcement officers to tighten supervision of national strategic programs, including the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) Program.
Minister of State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi said President Prabowo Subianto gave serious attention to the supervision of the use of state funds. According to the Mensesneg, prevention measures are much more important than having to bear the losses due to corruption.
"If later it becomes a consequence that must be done, we think there is no problem. It's better to add more budget to prevent corruption," said Prasetyo at the Presidential Palace complex in Jakarta, Thursday, June 4.
The statement came after the President asked the Attorney General's Office, the Police, the KPK, and the BPKP to strengthen supervision of the MBG program.
Prasetyo emphasized that supervision not only applies to MBG. All government programs will continue to be monitored through internal audits and law enforcement supervision.
According to Prasetyo, the President wants the culture of corruption to be fought from the beginning through strict supervision.
"We really want to try our hardest to fight this culture of corruption," he said.
