JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) cooperates with the Ministry of Defense (Kemhan) to hold education and training on state defense and national insight for 24 of its employees who have not passed the National Insight Test Assessment (TWK).

These 24 employees are those who can be saved from 75 KPK employees who are declared not to have passed the requirements for the transfer of employment status.

"The Corruption Eradication Commission and the Indonesian Ministry of Defense have agreed to cooperate in organizing State Defense Education and Training and National Insights for KPK employees who will be appointed as State Civil Apparatus (ASN)," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Affairs Ali Fikri told reporters, Friday, 25 June.

The agreement was signed by the Acting Deputy for Education and Community Participation of the KPK Wawan Wardiana with the Director General of Defense Potential of the Ministry of Defense Major General Dadang Hendrayuda.

KPK chairman Firli Bahuri who was present at the signing said the training was a follow-up to a series of employee status transfers in accordance with Law Number 19 of 2019.

"KPK employees are ASN. So all KPK employees must change the process to become ASN employees and of course they must participate and comply with the ASN Law. One of the requirements is regarding national insight," he said.

The training will last for four weeks starting on July 22. Learning and competency development in this training includes Basic Values of State Defense, Universal Defense System, National Insights or the Four Basic Consensus of the State, History of National Struggle, National Character Development, and Basic Skills of State Defense.

The KPK and the Ministry of Defense are committed that the implementation of training in the series of transferring KPK employees to ASN is to produce officials who have national integrity, love for Pancasila, the 1945 Constitution, the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, and the government.

Previously reported, in the process of transitioning KPK employees to State Civil Apparatus (ASN) there were 75 people who were declared failed because they did not pass the TWK.

Those who did not qualify included senior investigator Novel Baswedan, Chairman of the KPK Employee Forum who is also investigator Yudi Purnomo, Director of Socialization and Anti-Corruption Campaign Giri Suprapdiono, Head of the KPK Task Force Harun Al-Rasyid as well as a number of other investigators and investigators. This then raises the issue of targeting these employees, especially those who handle high-profile corruption cases.

Furthermore, those who did not pass were deactivated so that they could not carry out their duties as KPK employees. However, the KPK recently said it would fire 51 of their 75 employees who were declared unsuccessful because they could not be trained.

While the rest, as many as 24 employees will be trained first through education in defending the country and national insight but they can also be fired if they are declared not to have passed.
