JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Provincial Inspector, Syaefuloh Hidayat denied the statement from the PSI faction of the DKI DPRD which said that there was a waste of buying land for the cemetery on Jalan Bachelor, Srengseng Sawah Village, Jagakarsa District, South Jakarta.

PSI considers DKI to buy land for burial in 2020 with a budget expenditure of Rp. 3.33 billion, which is more expensive than it should be. This conclusion was drawn by PSI from the findings of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK).

Syaefuloh emphasized that there was no waste in the procurement of grave land because the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government made payments based on the appraisal results of the Public Appraisal Service Consultant (KJPP) and was in accordance with applicable legal provisions.

"If you look at BPK's findings, there is no wasteful sentence. The title of the finding is the Market Price Assessment from a Public Appraisal Service Consultant for the Procurement of Green Open Spaces for the Cemetery of the City Parks and Forests Service Not Based on Soil Conditions and Actual Comparative Data," said Syaefuloh at City Hall DKI, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, August 24.

Syaefuloh admitted that the BPK did find problems in the results of the physical examination of land acquisition with the comparison data.

BPK found that the condition of the land in the field did not match the final report of making the estimated compensation price made by KJPP, namely the average height of the yanah, the width of the road, the location, the allocation, and the selling price.

However, Syaefuloh emphasized that the recommendations based on BPK's findings were only administrative in nature. According to him, no state losses were caused

"The recommendation, administrative in nature, is to make technical guidelines in the preparation of the working terms of reference (KAK) and to add technical guidelines or standard operating procedures (SOP) related to the obligation to review the final report for making the estimated compensation price for KJPP, especially the review of comparative data. None state losses for these findings," said Syaefuloh.

Previously, a member of the PSI faction of the DKI DPRD, Justin Andrian, said that there was a budget waste of Rp. 3.3 billion from the tomb land in Srengseng Sawah which was purchased for Rp. 71.2 billion.

According to Andrian, BPK found 4 irregularities in this land acquisition. The first oddity is the location of the land 50 meters from Jalan Sarjana. Second, there is no access to the burial ground, so you have to go through a footpath on land owned by residents. Third, the land is in a basin, which is an elevation of 3 meters below Jalan Sarjana.

The fourth oddity is that the location of the land is in the H.3 zoning of the cemetery which cannot be used for buildings and obtaining an IMB, but the calculation of market prices uses comparative land with a zoning designation of R.9 for a low KDB house.

Unfortunately, this discrepancy was not included in the final report on making the estimated compensation price made by KJPP, which was used as a reference for the DKI Provincial Government to agree on the value of the land purchase.

“Logically, because there are 4 irregularities, then the land price should be lower than the surrounding land. However, BPK found that the DKI Provincial Government did not take into account these 4 factors as components that reduce prices and were not taken into account when negotiating prices with land owners, "said Justin.
