JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is preparing to appoint 18 of its employees to become the State Civil Apparatus (ASN).

This was done after dozens of employees who had been declared not to have passed the National Insight Test (TWK) were trained and declared to have passed the training for state defense and national insight.

"The Secretary General of the KPK will follow up on the results of the training by preparing administrative completeness for the nomination of 18 employees who have passed the training on state defense and national insight to be appointed as ASN," said KPK Chairman Firli Bahuri in a written statement to reporters, Friday, August 20.

There are also letters that must be prepared, namely a letter to the MenPANRB regarding the request for approval of 18 employees to become ASN at the KPK and the issuance of Employee Identification Numbers (NIP) for the dozens of employees to the State Civil Service Agency (BKN).

"The process, of course, is that the KPK cooperates with the KemenPANRB and BKN RI," he said.

Firli hopes that the dozens of employees who have completed the training on state defense and national insight will not only gain new knowledge.

"But it is also a driving force in the context of moving to defend the country and love the country in the workplace, in the neighborhood to serve the Motherland," he said.

Firli also ensured that the implementation of state defense training and national insight was in accordance with President Joko Widodo's orders on May 17 because it provided opportunities for employees who did not pass the TWK.

"This is our form of all KPK people carrying out the President's directives," he said.

As previously reported, these dozen employees received a number of materials in class about the basic values of defending the state, the universal defense system, and national insight (the four basic consensus of the state).

Next, they also learn about the history of the nation's struggle, the development of national character, basic skills for defending the country, national identity and integrity.

Meanwhile, activities outside the classroom are filled with activities in the form of guidance and care, practice of marching, individual assignments. Then group assignments, outbound or team building to train leadership and togetherness in groups, and group and independent sports such as tennis and football.

This education and training and state defense is carried out in collaboration between the KPK and the Ministry of Defense (Kemenhan). This activity has been taking place since last July 22 at the Indonesian Defense University, Sentul, West Java.
